EN This paper presents measurements of the concentrations of particulate matter (PM1, PM2.5, and PM10), carbon dioxide (CO2), total organic compounds (TVOCs), and formaldehyde as pollutants released during fuel combustion. For this purpose, a suitable measuring device containing selective electrochemical sensors was prepared. The influence of fuel type and engine speed on the amount of pollutants released into the environment, was studied. Based on the achieved results, it can be concluded that the factor influencing the amount of pollutants released is mainly the type of fuel. Gasoline-powered cars can pollute the environment in a particularly negative way. A relationship was also noted between the increase in engine speed and the concentration of released carcinogenic formaldehyde.
