NOX = 1.3 g/vkm => .72/124.3*1.3 = 7.5 mg/vkm for fine fraction

Boulter

• Tyre wear– Cars = 100 mg/vkm– HDV = 1000 mg/vkm– PM10 = 10 % (up to 30%)

• Brake wear– Cars =10-20 mg/vkm– HGV = 50-100 mg/vkm– 50% becomes airborne– >80% = PM10

What determines brake wear?

• Vehicle • Speed• Vehicle type (HDV, LDV…)• Brake type

• Traffic conditions• City center• Highway
