Abstract
The adverse health effects of air pollutants in general and particulate matter (PM) in particular have been demonstrated by a large number of toxicological and epidemiological studies. The Lancet Commission reported in 2018 that air pollution causes approximately 6.5 million premature deaths every year worldwide and ranks it as the fifth leading cause of death. Road traffic is considered a major source of particulate matter in urban environments. The share of exhaust emissions has continued to decline over the years due to engine improvements and the introduction of exhaust after treatment methods. In contrast, particulate emissions due to abrasion from brakes, tires, and the road surface, as well as due to resuspension have steadily increased. The reason for this, in addition to increasing traffic, is primarily the steadily growing average vehicle size and mass.
