Pollution from tire wear can be 1,000 times worse than a car’s exhaust emissions, Emissions Analytics has found. Source: California Air Resources Board (ARB). New cars now emit very little in the way of particulate matter but there is growing concern around non-exhaust emissions (NEEs). and 73% of PM 10. and 73% of PM 10.

Researchers from the University of Liverpool, Queen Mary University, London and Trinity College Dublin have linked exposure to diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) to susceptibility to pneumococcal disease. Many of these fatalities have been linked to exposure to high levels of airborne particulates, such as diesel exhaust particles (DEPs).

Metal particles from the abrasion of brake pads (brake abrasion dust, BAD) may cause inflammation and reduce the ability of immune cells to kill bacteria, similarly to particles derived from diesel exhaust particles (DEP), according to a new study led by researchers at King’s College London. traffic pollution.

A new study by researchers from Washington State University and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has found that a catalyst using a single or just a few palladium atoms removed 90% of unburned methane from natural gas engine exhaust at low temperatures. The work is published in the journal Nature Catalysis.

In an open access paper in the Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics , researchers at the University of Surrey (UK) have investigated the effect of group riding on cyclists’ exposure to vehicle pollutants. —Schmeer et al. With more wind, riding towards the back of the group can be a good strategy to minimize exposure.

Catalytic converters have been used in the US since the 1970s as a way to clean up pollutants from vehicle exhaust. In the catalytic process, rare metals such as platinum, are used in a chemical reaction to convert carbon monoxide and other pollutants to non-toxic carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water. —Yong Wang.

These clusters are more reactive than the single atoms and, hence, exhaust gases can be much better removed. Among others, they are applied in nearly all combustion processes to reduce pollutant emissions. To convert pollutants, they usually have to react with oxygen in the catalyst. The results are reported in Nature Catalysis.
