fuel consumption, which i6 about equal to the consumption by road diesels.)
Particulates formed in the atmosphere from gaseous pollutants (that is, sul
fates from 80s, nitrates from NO and HO2, particulates formed by atmospheric
photochemical reactions of hydrocarbons, etc.) amount to eome 200 X 106 tons
worldwide annually, or twice as much as the emissions of particulates qua
particulates - so-called "primary" particulates - given in Table II.
