Intro to Chemical Engineering
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are a group of highly reactive gases composed of nitrogen and oxygen, primarily including nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These gases are significant air pollutants that contribute to environmental issues such as smog formation, acid rain, and respiratory problems in humans. They are mainly produced from combustion processes in vehicles, power plants, and industrial facilities.
