Validation of an Experimental Protocol for Estimating Emission Factors from Vehicle-Induced Road Dust Resuspension

open access: yesAir
Road dust resuspension is widely recognized as a major contributor to traffic-related particulate matter (PM) in urban environments. Nevertheless, reported emission factors exhibit substantial variability.

PM10 Resuspension of Road Dust in Different Types of Parking Lots: Emissions, Chemical Characterisation and Ecotoxicity

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
The thoracic fraction of road dust (PM10) was measured for the first time in Portugal in parking areas, both outdoors and indoors, with the aim of completing existing studies carried out in active lanes of various roads.

Quantifying road dust resuspension in urban environment by Multilinear Engine: A comparison with PMF2

open access: yesAtmospheric Environment, 2009
Abstract Atmospheric PM pollution from traffic comprises not only direct emissions but also non-exhaust emissions because resuspension of road dust that can produce high human exposure to heavy metals, metalloids, and mineral matter. A key task for establishing mitigation or preventive measures is estimating the contribution of road dust resuspension

Road dust resuspension and toxic components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Several studies in Spanish urban areas have shown high concentrations of aerosol particles. These air pollution problems are mostly attributed to traffic. Traffic emissions include exhaust origin particles, as well as particulate matter from abrasion sources like tire and brake wear debris and particles resuspended from the road surface.

Emission Factors, Chemical Composition and Ecotoxicity of PM10 from Road Dust Resuspension in a Small Inland City

open access: yesWater, Air, & Soil Pollution
AbstractRoad dust resuspension in urban environments can contribute to high human exposure to metal(loid)s, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and other potentially toxic organic compounds. However, for many regions, information on loadings, emission factors and chemical profiles is lacking to accurately apply emission inventories and source ...

Advanced source apportionment of size-resolved trace elements at multiple sites in London during winter [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Trace element measurements in PM10–2.5, PM2.5–1.0 and PM1.0–0.3 aerosol were performed with 2 h time resolution at kerbside, urban background and rural sites during the ClearfLo winter 2012 campaign in London.
