- Summary
- COI synopsis: The lead content in petrol would not pose a pollution problem is the exhaust gases leaving a car’s tail pipe were free of it. An alternative to developing lead free petrol would be to remove the lead from the exhaust. Our film examines a silencer which removes lead from the exhaust gases without expensive catalysts.
