Soot-Free Transport in ASEAN Countries Read more about Soot-Free Transport in ASEAN Countries Diesel emissions are a human carcinogen, according to the World Health Organization. Diesel engines produce 99 percent of transport-sector emissions of black carbon, a powerful climate pollutant whose near-term warming can be nearly eliminated with a transition to soot-free Euro 6/VI emission standards. Most countries have developed or begun to develop on-road vehicle emission and fuel quality standards. But ASEAN member countries face a variety of obstacles to implement low-sulfur fuel and Euro 4/IV vehicle emission standards and advancing to soot-free Euro 6/VI standards.
