This research aims to conduct a descriptive statistical analysis to identify the statistical correlation between categories of new and second-hand vehicles registered for circulation in Romania and various health conditions associated with atmospheric pollution. Currently, a significant challenge for the global community lies in mitigating the impact of atmospheric pollution, considered a crucial factor both in terms of global climate change and its impact on public health. One major source of atmospheric pollutio...

Reducing air pollution is a major objective of road transport, the most important consequence of this reduction being the decrease in the number of illnesses and, implicitly, a better quality of human life. To achieve this goal, researchers- efforts have been directed towards reducing the quantities and treating the exhaust gases of vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines. It is important to note that the reduction of environmental pollution must also aim at decreasing the emissions of particles that ar...

The main cause of air pollution from vehicles is related to the harmful emissions from engines, manly associated to the petrol industry and internal combustion engine manufacturers. As mention into the technical literature, the pollution emitted directly from engines is not the only cause of concern. Besides the liquids obtained from petrol (fuel and oils) and the ones used for air conditioning, the particles thrown off from brake pads is the third cause of air pollution from components of vehicles. It has been re...
