"nitrógeno" in English

My colleague Mr Valverde López referred to NO, which is in fact nitric oxide.

We have a combination of filters to reduce NOx and we also have particulate traps.

We now have vehicles with catalysts that reduce NOx emissions.

We have added alert thresholds for NOx and particulates.

I will explain this using the example of NOx emissions.

Instead, we need to reduce NOx emissions in one fell swoop.

It creates problems for farmers if only some farmers are obliged to pay to reduce nitrate run-off.

So it must be stated clearly that the Nobel Prize was awarded for nitric oxide, and not for nitroglycerine.

The result was a reduction of about 40 % in hydrocarbon emissions and about 30 % in NOx emissions.

If we really want to achieve that, then it is specifically the NOx emissions from lorries and buses that we will also have to reduce.

Commissioner, you can count on our support provided you persevere and have this thematic strategy published shortly.

These 23 million commercial vehicles emit as much as the 168 million cars, that is 50% of total NOx emissions.

Moreover, 650000 square kilometres – an area twenty times the size of Belgium – of Europe’s ecosystem are under threat of azotic pollution.

With regard to emissions by ships I would like to recall the very significant agreement that has just been reached within IMO on SOx and on NOx.

In that sense, a linear model for increasing excise on fuel may be too slow and gradual to spur consumers genuinely to perceive the situation in such a way as to change their consumption patterns.
