Download or read book Evaluating Vehicle Emissions Inspection and Maintenance Programs written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-12-16 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emissions inspection and maintenance (I/M) programs subject vehicles to periodic inspections of their emission control systems. Despite widespread use of these programs in air-quality management, policy makers and the public have found a number of problems associated with them. Prominent among these issues is the perception that emissions benefits and other impacts of I/M programs have not been evaluated adequately. Evaluating Vehicle Emissions Inspection and Maintenance Programs assesses the effectiveness of these programs for reducing mobile source emissions. In this report, the committee evaluates the differences in the characteristics of motor vehicle emissions in areas with and without I/M programs, identifies criteria and methodologies for their evaluation, and recommends improvements to the programs. Most useful of all, this book will help summarize the observed benefits of these programs and how they can be redirected in the future to increase their effectiveness.

Download or read book The Auto Emissions Bible written by Ralph H. Birnbaum and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Auto emission controls and vehicle testing are a part of life for many motorists. If you live where registration renewal requires a passing grade on an emissions test, an illuminated check engine light can be a costly inconvenience. The Auto Emissions Bible explains auto emissions and instructs motorists, auto repair professionals, and prosumers how to repair and prep vehicles to pass vehicle emissions tests. For owners of 1996 and newer models, the book demonstrates how OBD II monitors components and systems to locate failures that lead to check engine light illumination and vehicle test failures. You'll also learn how to sample and interpret exhaust gas analyzer readings, and make repairs to limit harmful emissions. Authors Sam Bell and Ralph Birnbaum have a combined 80 years of auto repair experience. Both write regularly on automotive topics, specializing in computer controls, driveability issues, and emissions testing.

This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses recent changes in the European legislation for exhaust emissions from motor vehicles. It starts with a comprehensive explanation of both the structure and range of applicability of new regulations, such as Euro 5 and Euro 6 for light-duty vehicles and Euro VI for heavy-duty vehicles. Then it introduces the most important issues in in-service conformity and conformity of production for vehicles, describing the latest procedures for performing exhaust emissions tests under both bench and operating conditions. Subsequently, it reports on portable emission measurement systems (PEMS) and their application for assessing the emissions of gaseous and particulate matter alike, under actual operating conditions and in all transport modes. Lastly, the book presents selected findings from exhaust emissions research on engines for a variety of transport vehicles, such as light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles, as well as non-road vehicles, which include farm tractors, groundwork and forest machinery, diesel locomotives, high-rail vehicles, combat vehicles and special-purpose vehicles. This work offers a valuable reference guide for researchers and professionals dealing with environmental regulations and vehicle manufacturing in the European Union.
