Abstract

This study aims at contributing to the information buildup required for advocating the need for urgent reduction of environmental pollution by exhaust emissions from fossil fuel powered Engines in Nigeria. It was, concluded from the results obtained from the study that carbon monoxide content of the exhaust emissions of agricultural tractors are approximately forty nine(49) times higher than the recommended maximum level of 0.5 % vol CO (v/v) by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). FIAT 70-666 contributed the largest content of 2.9 % vol of CO (v/v) while MASSEY FERGUSSON MF 375 contributed the least amount of 1.7 % vol of CO(v/v). Only the engine capacity had significant effect on the carbon monoxide content of the exhaust emissions of the agricultural tractors; the model/make selection did not significantly affect the CO content of their exhaust emissions.
农业拖拉机发动机废气排放的一氧化碳含量:以尼日利亚奥约州Ogbomoso为例
这项研究的目的是促进所需的信息积累,倡导迫切需要减少尼日利亚化石燃料发动机废气排放对环境的污染。从研究结果中得出结论,农用拖拉机废气中一氧化碳的含量大约比美国环境保护署(EPA)建议的0.5% vol CO (v/v)的最高水平高出49倍。FIAT 70-666的CO含量最高,为2.9% vol (v/v),而MASSEY FERGUSSON MF 375的CO含量最低,为1.7% vol (v/v)。只有发动机排量对农用拖拉机废气中一氧化碳含量有显著影响;车型/品牌的选择对其废气的一氧化碳含量没有显著影响。
