injection, this emissions control technique can reduce the amounts of both unburnt fuel and oxides of nitrogen entering the atmosphere. Unburnt fuel is pollution in the form of air-borne hydrocarbons. At the same time, oxides of nitrogen (NO_x gases) are a result of combustion chamber temperatures exceeding 1300 kelvin, due to excess air in the fuel mixture, thereby contributing to smog and acid rain.
