Jordan, a Middle Eastern country, is experiencing air pollution problems in several regions. Diesel-powered vehicles, industry, natural sources, and power-generating plants are potential sources of this pollution. This paper examines the impact of diesel on air quality in Jordan and gives suggestions to help improve air quality for the years to come. Selected hot spots representing commercial, residential, and industrial areas were investigated in this study. Key pollutants measured in commercial, residential, and industrial areas were higher than the permissible values in ambient air set by the National and WHO Air Quality. This study presents some insights on the situation and current trends in sulfur use. It also addresses the needs to reduce the amount of sulfur in diesel fuel. Solutions and measures were proposed to mitigate the effects of the high concentration of sulfur in diesel.
