Sulfur Content Standards

Sulfur content standards regulate the amount of sulfur allowed in fuels like gasoline and diesel. High sulfur levels can cause pollution, health problems, and damage engines. These standards set maximum sulfur limits to reduce emissions of harmful pollutants like sulfur dioxide, which contributes to acid rain and respiratory issues. By enforcing these limits, governments aim to improve air quality and protect the environment and public health. Modern regulations typically require cleaner fuels with very low sulfur content, encouraging cleaner technology and more environmentally friendly transportation.
