Exhaust Emissions from a Passenger Car Equipped with a DuPont Exhaust Emission Control System

摘要

The exhaust emission characteristics of a vehicle equipped with a DuPont exhaust emission control system were measured to provide a comparison with other low emission vehicles having the potential for meeting proposed 1975 Federal Standards. To obtain emission data, DuPont delivered for test a 1970 Chevrolet equipped with their latest reactor system. This was a typical vehicle with the following modifications: exhaust manifold reactor, exhaust gas recirculation, manifold air injection, particulate traps with special exhaust systems, and carburetor modifications. The vehicle used a 350 cubic inch engine with automatic transmission. All tests were run using Indolene 30 fuel.
