reducing the nitrogen oxide.
EMC ElectroMagnetic Compability The ability of a device, system or equipment to operate in an electromagnetic environment without affecting it.
EMF ElectroMagnetic Field Electromagnetic fields exist around anything powered by an electric current. Light and radio waves, among other
things, fall under the definition of an electromagnetic field.
