Ozone (03) is a powerful oxidizing agent which is classified as a “secondary air pollutant”. Secondary air pollutants are not emitted into the atmosphere but formed from subsequent atmospheric chemical reactions of primary pollutants (nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, particles, carbon monoxide, lead).
