Nitrogen combines with oxygen to form a variety of compounds, many of which are considered air pollutants.

When talking about air pollution it's sometimes convenient to lump all of them together, hence the generic term "NOx" meaning "nitrogen combined with some amount, we're not sure or don't really care how much, of oxygen"
