Abstract:
Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emitted from internal combustion engines are composed primarily of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Exhaust from most combustion sources contains NOx composed primarily of NO. NOx gases are usually produced from the reaction among nitrogen and oxygen during combustion of fuels, such as hydrocarbons, in air; especially at high temperatures, such as occur in car engines. In areas of high motor vehicle traffic, such as in large cities, the nitrogen oxides emitted can be a significant source of air pollution. NOx is a serious greenhouse gas, and is defined as being 298 times as bad as CO2 because of its radiative effect. It does react with vitamin B12, which may be a problem for those who are deficient. So that the control of NOx is very important and indispensable to maintain environment clean and avoid adverse impact on human health and animal.
