Sources and properties of non-exhaust particulate matter from road traffic: a review.

TL;DR: It is concluded that with the exception of brake dust particles which may be identified from their copper (Cu) and antimony (Sb) content, unequivocal identification of particles from other sources is likely to prove extremely difficult, either because of the lack of suitable tracer elements or compounds, or of the interactions between sources prior to the emission process.

Brake wear particle emissions: a review

TL;DR: The aim of the present literature review study is to present the state-of-the-art of the different aspects regarding PM resulting from brake wear and provide all the necessary information in terms of importance, physicochemical characteristics, emission factors and possible health effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of brake wear particles and derivation of a quantitative tracer for brake dust at a major road

TL;DR: In this article, size-segregated analysis of atmospheric aerosol particles sampled with micro-orifice uniform deposit impactors (MOUDI) in March 2007 in London was performed.

Quantitative assessment of atmospheric emissions of toxic heavy metals from anthropogenic sources in China: historical trend, spatial distribution, uncertainties, and control policies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established the multi-year comprehensive atmospheric emission inventories of 12 typical toxic heavy metals (Hg, As, Se, Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, Sb, Mn, Co, Cu, and Zn) from primary anthropogenic activities in China for the period of 1949-2012 for the first time.

The next industrial revolution.

Athelstan Spilhaus
- 27 Mar 1970 - 
TL;DR: The authors must have this new industrial revolution; invent it; encourage it; ensure that there will be no such thing as waste, on the basis that waste is simply some substance that they do not yet have the wit to use.
