Non-Exhaust Emissions: An Urban Air Quality Problem for Public
Health comprehensively summarizes the most recent research in the
field, also giving guidance on research gaps and future needs to
evaluate the health impact and possible remediation of non-exhaust
particle emissions. With contributions from some of the major
experts and stakeholders in air quality, this book comprehensively
defines the state-of-the-art of current knowledge, gaps and future
needs for a better understanding of particulate matter (PM)
emissions, from non-exhaust sources of road traffic to improve
public health. PM is a heterogeneous mix of chemical elements and
sources, with road traffic being the major source in large cities.
A significant part of these emissions come from non-exhaust
processes, such as brake, tire, road wear, and road dust
resuspension. While motor exhaust emissions have been successfully
reduced by means of regulation, non-exhaust emissions are currently
uncontrolled and their importance is destined to increase and
become the dominant urban source of particle matter by 2020.
Nevertheless, current knowledge on the non-exhaust emissions is
still limited. This is an essential book to researchers and
advanced students from a broad range of disciplines, such as public
health, toxicology, atmospheric sciences, environmental sciences,
atmospheric chemistry and physics, geochemistry, epidemiology,
built environment, road and vehicle engineering, and city planning.
In addition, European and local authorities responsible for air
quality and those in the industrial sectors related to vehicle and
brake manufacturing and technological remediation measures will
also find the book valuable.
