The emission factor can be determined using carbon balance in fuel and exhaust. An emission test measured the tailpipe exhaust concentration of a diesel truck. The measured exhaust concentrations, vehicle, and fuel properties are given below.

Vehicle and Fuel properties Exhaust concentrations (by volume) Fuel economy

(km/L) 8.5 CO2 12%

Density of Diesel Fuel 0.85 kg/L H2O (water vapor) 11%

Carbon content in diesel fuel (by weight) 86.2% O2 9%

CO 0.05%

NOx as NO2 200 ppm

SO2 10 ppm

If this diesel truck runs 20,000 km (typical mileage) in 2020, how much NOx and SO2 (kg/year) were emitted from this truck in 2020?
