Non-exhaust emissions of airborne nano/ultrafine particles from road vehiclesThis project will focus on building the understanding of non-exhaust emissions of airborne particles from road vehicles.
The non-exhaust emissions from road vehicles are expected to become important. These emissions could arise from brake wear, tire wear, road surface wear, and resuspended road dust. These emissions include particulate matter in diverse size ranges that are measured by mass as well as the airborne ultrafine or nanoparticles that are measured by numbers. There is a significant knowledge gap in the understanding of non-exhaust emissions from different type of vehicles.
