The levels of these non-fuel-derived gases will likely remain unchanged, even as more drivers transition from gas-powered to electric vehicles. These emissions are independent of the vehicle energy/propulsion system and therefore applicable to all road vehicle types including those with battery-electric powertrains. Cliff et al.

At cruising altitude, airplanes emit a steady stream of NO x into the atmosphere, where the chemicals can linger to produce ozone and fine particulates. We quantify the effects of these trade-offs in terms of emissions reduction and fuel burn increase using representative engine cycle models provided by a major aero-gas turbine manufacturer.

CO 2 and NO x certification test data for heavy-duty diesel engines certified from 2002 through 2019. NO x is a precursor for both ground level ozone and secondary PM 2.5 —“Technology Feasibility for Heavy-Duty Diesel Trucks in Achieving 90% Lower NO x Standards in 2027”. Source of data: US EPA (2019). Chart: MECA.

Vehicle fleets across the United States are transitioning from internal combustion engine (ICE) to electric vehicles, and that includes school bus fleets. Electric school buses have no tailpipe emissions, so students are not directly exposed to harmful vehicle fumes when on or near the bus.

Additional diesel PM reductions in 18 major CA railyards with five new locomotive measures. While we are pleased to have already reduced diesel emissions at the rail yards, it’s not enough.

Soot—black and brown particles that absorb solar radiation—comes from two types of sources: fossil fuels such as diesel, coal, gasoline, jet fuel; and solid biofuels such as wood, manure, dung, and other solid biomass used for home heating and cooking around the world. Particle traps filter out soot particles from exhaust fumes.
