Automobile emissions control
covers all the technologies that are employed to reduce the air
pollution-causing emissions produced by
automobiles. Exhaust emissions
control systems were first required on 1966 model year vehicles produced
for sale in the state of California, followed by the United States as a
whole in model year 1968. Their use became widespread in the following
decades and now they are ubiquitous in industrialized nations and common
in most others.
Emissions controls have been
highly successful in reducing the emissions produced by motor vehicles
in terms of quantity per distance traveled. However, substantial
increases in the distance traveled by each vehicle, and equally
substantial increases in the number of vehicles in use, have meant that
the overall reduction in pollution has been much slower.
The emissions produced by a vehicle fall into three
basic categories:

Tailpipe emissions:
This is what most people think of when they think of vehicle air
pollution; the products of burning fuel in the vehicle's engine,
emitted from the vehicle's exhaust system.
Evaporative emissions:
These are produced from the evaporation of fuel, and are a large
contributor to urban smog, since these heavier molecules stay closer to
ground level.
Life cycle emissions: These
are produced in activities associated with the manufacturing, maintenance,
and disposal of the automobile.
