Gas van of 6,700 civilians in Krasnodar. The total number of gas van gassings is unknown. The gas vans are extensively discussed in some of the interviews in Claude Lanzmann's film "Shoah". Gas van A gas van or gas wagon ( ("dushegubka"); ) was a vehicle reequipped as a mobile gas chamber. The vehicle had an air-tight compartment for the murdered victims, into which exhaust fumes were transmitted while the engine was running. The murdered victims were gassed with carbon monoxide, resulting in death by carbon monoxide poisoning and suffocation. The gas van was used by the Soviet secret police in 1930s.
Exhaust gas recirculation EGR valve was controlled, in part, by vacuum drawn from the carburetor's venturi, which allowed more precise constraint of EGR flow to only those engine load conditions under which NOx is likely to form. Later, backpressure transducers were added to the EGR valve control to further tailor EGR flow to engine load conditions. Most modern engines now need exhaust gas recirculation to meet emissions standards. However, recent innovations have led to the development of engines that do not require them. The 3.6 Chrysler Pentastar engine is one example that does not require EGR. The exhaust gas, added to the fuel,
