Together with his colleagues, he used a special instrument to examine the exhaust plumes of 23,000 passing cars and analyzed the levels of NO x and CO 2. Among the 23,000 correctly measured exhaust plumes, Grange recorded 4,053 times the emissions of the VW EA 189 diesel engine, which formed the basis for his analysis.

The study by the team led by researchers from the Laboratory of Atmospheric Chemistry, Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland, appears in the journal Nature Communications. Chemical analysis of the emissions shows that SOA is mainly produced via photo-oxidation of aromatic VOCs, present in gasoline, from the exhaust. —Platt et al.
