The European Union's ambition to reach climate neutrality and a toxic-free environment by 2050 entails, among other things, cleaner road vehicles. The European Commission's proposal for the next regulatory emissions standard, Euro 7, requires the measurement of pollutants currently not regulated on the road. In this study we compared a prototype portable emissions measurement system (PEMS) measuring CO2, CO, NO, NO2, N2O, NH3, CH4, and HCHO based on infrared laser absorption modulation (IRLAM), and two Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers with laboratory grade analyzers. To this end, one Euro 6d Diesel, one Euro 6d gasoline, and one Euro 4 gasoline vehicle were tested at −7 °C and 23 °C with various driving cycles covering traffic conditions to highway dynamic driving. The results demonstrated that the differences among the instruments were small: ±1 mg/km for HCHO, N2O, and CH4, ±2.5 mg/km for NH3, ±10–15 mg/km for NOx, ±50 mg/km or ±15% for CO (whichever was larger), and ±10–15 g/km for CO2. These values corresponded to <10–15% of the proposed Euro 7 limits or the emission levels of the tested vehicles. Our results confirm the feasibility of on-board systems to measure the conventional components including CO2 and the aforementioned additional pollutants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
