Emissions Standards–ADVISOR

Compliance with vehicle emissions standards is a critical step in the vehicle development process.  Given the availability of emissions maps for your fuel converter, ADVISOR allows you to estimate the engine out and catalyst out emissions.  By comparing these values to published federal and state standards it is possible to classify the vehicle in question and to understand where to focus effort to improve the emissions classification of a vehicle.  

The developers of the DieselNet website have done an outstanding job of consolidating and summarizing both federal and state emissions standards. We recommend that you visit their website for a summary of current standards.  

However, please realize that the official standards are developed and published by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) at the federal level and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) at the California state level.  For more information please visit their respective websites.
