Air pollution by jet engines at Seattle-Tacoma Airport is discussed. General air traffic characteristics of the airport are included. A tabulation of pollutants present in jet exhausts is made, as well as a comparison between jet exhaust pollutants and auto exhaust pollutants. Jet exhaust pollutants can generally be reduced by the addition of smokeless burner cans, but this raises the emission of nitrogen oxides. (Author)
