Review of Road Dust Resuspension Modelling Approaches and Comparisons Analysis for a UK Case Study

Atmosphere, 2022
This report provides a review of several measurement studies and campaigns focusing on road dust resuspension (RDS), which is becoming an important source of ambient particulate matter (PM) concentrations. There is a growing requirement from stakeholders,

Evaluation of Road Dust Resuspension from Internal Combustion Engine and Electric Vehicles of the Same Model

Atmosphere
As many countries transition to electric vehicles (EVs) to reduce tailpipe emissions from internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs), both vehicle types continue to generate non-exhaust particulate matter (PM), including tire wear, brake wear, road ...

Characterization of Fine Particulate Matter Emitted from the Resuspension of Road and Pavement Dust in the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo, Brazil [PDF]

Atmosphere, 2016
Many studies have been performed in order to characterize the sources of airborne particles in the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo (MASP), in Brazil. Those studies have been based on receptor modeling and most of the uncertainties in their results are ...

Regional and seasonal drivers of metals and PAHs concentrations in road dust and their health implications in the Czech Republic [PDF]

Heliyon
While car exhaust emissions in the EU are clearly decreasing, the future of non-exhaust emissions looks more pessimistic. The relative importance of the latter is thus expected to increase in terms of air quality and human health.

Reassessment of the radiocesium resuspension flux from contaminated ground surfaces in eastern Japan [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022
Resuspension of 137Cs from the contaminated ground surface to the atmosphere is essential for understanding the environmental behaviors of 137Cs and estimating external and inhalation exposure of residents. Kajino et al.

Simultaneous Quantification of Real-World Elemental Contributions from the Exhaust and Non-Exhaust Vehicular Emissions Using Road Dust Enrichment Factor-Elemental Carbon Tracer Method (EFECT)

Atmosphere, 2023
Emission control regulations have been essential in reducing vehicular exhaust emissions. However, the contribution of exhaust and non-exhaust emissions to ambient particulate matter (PM) has not yet been accurately quantified due to the lack of ...
