monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form
photochemical smog when subject to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. utilizes various systems (page 1-87) to reduce carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons.
