Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion creates more NOx and particulate matter than petrol combustion. This is due to diesel engine combustion and fuel composition. Modern diesel automobiles emit less due to particle filters and SCR systems. 
Compared to diesel combustion, petrol combustion produces less nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Petrol contains less contaminants than diesel, thus petrol engines generate fewer particles. Due to combustion processes and engine design, petrol engines may release less nitrogen oxides. 
While both diesel and petrol engines generate pollutants, diesel engines historically emitted more. Since pollution control technology have improved, current diesel and petrol vehicles can meet strict emissions criteria.
