Abstract

One of the challenging issues affecting the automotive industry in recent times has to do with the total emissions produced by the sector annually. This investigation sums up some of these toxic emissions generated by diesel engine cars. Legislations related to these emissions were also discussed thoroughly. Techniques that can be adopted to eliminate these gases were also investigated as well. In spite of the successes made in this sector, there is still more room for improvement in terms of commitments by all stakeholders in the industry and this has been carefully discussed in this report.
