The mobile source particulate matter inventory includes exhaust emissions and non-exhaust emissions. Exhaust emissions include particulate matter attributable to engine related processes such as fuel combustion, burnt oil, and other particles that exit the tailpipe. Non-exhaust processes include brake wear, tire wear, suspension or resuspension of road dust, and other sources. Particulate matter from brakes and tires is defined as the airborne portion of the “wear” that can be created by abrasion, corrosion, and turbulence. These wear processes can result in particles being suspended in the atmosphere. The size, chemical composition, and emission rate of particles arising from such sources contributes to atmospheric particle concentrations. However, these particles are composed of different species and size than exhaust particulate matter. The literature review for the development of the brake and tire wear emission models was conducted in 2006 and 2007, the models were developed for MOVES2010, and this report was written in 2008. However this documentation was not revised until the peer review complete in 2014 and no revisions to the model were made. As of 2007, the references in this report were recent, yet there were likely a few publications on particulate matter from brake and tire wear which were not included in the original literature review. In the sections below we present the studies from the literature conducted at the time, as well as the models that were developed based on the best data presented in the papers cited. A more recent literature search and a potential model update will be conducted in the future. |
