Exhaust Gas Analysis

Exhaust systems reduce the amount of noise produced by the engine and channel the high-temperature, poisonous exhaust gases from the engine by safely routing them under the vehicle. Then, through a system of manifolds, pipes, and sound-absorbing mufflers, the gases are released out of the back of the vehicle.

Emission control systems reduce the amount of harmful gases and particles released by vehicle operation. These systems have evolved into complex computer-controlled systems that balance ever-tightening vehicle pollution control regulation by the U.S. government with the constant demand for more power and economy from vehicle owners.

When an engine operates, it burns fuel. Because no engine can burn 100 percent of the fuel, harmful gas and particulate byproducts (emissions) are released.
