Emission Information
The emission control systems are
designed to reduce the amount of
hydrocarbons (HC), carbon
monoxide (CO), and oxides of
nitrogen (NOx) that are emitted from
the engine and fuel system into the
atmosphere. HC and NOx, when
exposed to sunlight under certain
conditions, contribute to
photochemical smog. In addition,
CO is toxic to inhale.
Emission Control System
Major emission control systems the
vehicle may have are:
.
Evaporative emission control
system. This system is designed
to prevent the escape of fuel
vapour from the fuel system and
recycle the vapours through the
normal combustion process.
.
Crankcase emission control
system. This system is designed
to prevent blow-by gases from
escaping into the atmosphere
and recycle them through the
combustion process.
.
Exhaust emission control
system. The various
components of this system
operate collectively to limit HC,
CO and NOx emissions in the
exhaust petrol. The exhaust
emission control system consists
of components including
electronic control of spark, fuel
