What Does NOX Stand For?
NOX stands for Nitrogen Oxides
NOX, or Nitrogen Oxides, refers to a group of gases composed of nitrogen and oxygen, primarily nitrogen monoxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). These pollutants are significant contributors to air quality issues and environmental concerns, including the formation of smog and acid rain. NOX emissions primarily result from combustion processes in vehicles, power plants, and industrial activities. Monitoring and regulating NOX levels is crucial for improving air quality and protecting public health.
