types emissions emissions many air pollutants shown variety negative effects public health natural environment.emissions principal pollutants concern includehydrocarbons hc – class burned partially burned fuel hydrocarbons toxins.hydrocarbons major contributor smog major problem urban areas.prolonged exposure hydrocarbons contributes asthma liver disease lung disease cancer.regulations governing hydrocarbons vary according type engine jurisdiction cases nonmethane hydrocarbons regulated cases total hydrocarbons regulated.
