Abstract

Air pollution that was caused by motorized vehicle, which came from the emission of the vehicle, has produced bad impact on human health. This study has objectives to study the effect of the application of air pollution control device, whice was equipped with fiber optic, glass wool and active carbon, to emission of diesel motor vehicles. That control device was place on Mitsubishi Colt Diesel PS 100 car.The results of this study has indicated that air pollution control device that used fiber optic, glas wooll and active carbon component had the best performance to absorb Diesel motor vehicle’s emission. It could be seen by the reduction of O2 value, the reduction of CO2 value and smoke, whereas HC was not performed.
