The majority of gaseous emissions from motoer vehicles origine from the engine. There are however other sources:
From the engine/exhaust:
* Water * Nitrogen * CO2 * CO * NOx * Unburned petrol (Butane to Octane + and aromatics) * Carbon particulate * Aldehydes/Ketones * Benzene * Light hydrocarbons From Fueling:
* Petrol Vapour (Butane to Octane + and aromatics) From the Interior: * Plasticizers * PAH Others:
* Ethylene Glycol (cooling system) * Freon or HCFC (AC) * Hydrogen (battery) * Ozone (electrical system)
