Abstract

This study investigates the impact of used vehicles on the environment by sampling a number of such vehicles and carrying out exhaust emission measurements using the Exhaust Gas Analyzer. The exhaust emissions (CO, CxHy, NOx, CO2, SO2) were analyzed to ascertain the level of its concentration.
