ABSTRACT
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to be mutagenic and carcinogenic group of substances. One of the most important anthropogenic source of these hydrocarbons is motorization (especially diesel engines). The most effective method of PAHs removal from exhaust gasses is using catalytic converters in vehicle exhaust systems. This paper presents results of measurements of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons emissions from self-ignition engine with platinum-rhodium active coating application inside.
