Road traffic nanoparticle characteristics: Sustainable environment and mobility

Ines Belkacem et al.

Summary: The human effects and environmental impacts of nanoparticles generated from road traffic have become a topic of concern. However, the knowledge about the influencing variables, monitoring instruments, and regulations for nanoparticles is still limited. This overview provides a comprehensive analysis of the existing knowledge, ongoing research, and emerging priorities in this field, including the sources, influencing parameters, measurement methodologies, and health implications of nanoparticles in road traffic atmosphere.

Particulate matter exposure at a densely populated urban traffic intersection and crosswalk

Hong-di He et al.

Summary: This study investigates pedestrian exposure to PM pollution at an urban traffic intersection through fixed-site and mobile measurements, analyzing variations in particle sizes and exposure during different segments of a pedestrian's journey. The results highlight the importance of reducing PM pollution at intersections and provide valuable information for policymakers to consider measures to decrease pedestrian PM exposure.

Determination of local traffic emission and non-local background source contribution to on-road air pollution using fixed-route mobile air sensor network

Peng Wei et al.

Summary: This study used mobile sensors on buses to monitor air quality along ten important routes in Hong Kong, finding that NO and NO2 in spring are mainly locally influenced while PM2.5 and CO largely originate from background sources. PM2.5 displays a homogeneous spatial pattern, decreasing during summer, with regional transport pollution being the primary contributor during high pollution episodes.

Insights into Elemental Composition and Sources of Fine and Coarse Particulate Matter in Dense Traffic Areas in Toronto and Vancouver, Canada

Valbona Celo et al.

Summary: This study investigated the characteristics and sources of trace elements in fine and coarse particles in dense traffic areas of Toronto and Vancouver, Canada. Results indicated that traffic emissions contributed significantly to particle concentrations, particularly through resuspension and abrasion sources. The study also found a clear partitioning trend of trace elements between fine and coarse particles, reflecting their origins.

Characterizing spatiotemporal distributions of black carbon and PM2.5 at a toll station: Observations on manual and electronic toll collection lanes

Zhen-guang Luo et al.

Summary: This study found that pollutant concentrations vary significantly across different lanes at toll stations, with higher concentrations on manual toll collection lanes during weekdays. Traffic volume and lane type were identified as the most important factors affecting variations in BC levels, while background concentration was the dominant factor for PM2.5 variations.
