According to the World Health Organization (WHO), PM2.5 and PM10 are a leading cause of air pollution and have been identified as having detrimental effects on human health even at low concentrations. By reducing exposure to these particles, countries can significantly decrease the incidence of both short- and long-term illnesses, as well as the overall burden of disease. This paper discusses the impact of the size and concentration of particles from braking systems, tires, and road on the respiratory, cardiovascular, and nervous systems of humans. The paper also presents methods for detecting and measuring non-exhaust emissions from motor vehicles, as well as United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) regulations for defining standardised laboratory procedures for testing particle emissions resulting from the wear of brakes in light vehicles with a maximum permissible weight of up to 3500 kg. Based on the reviewed literature, possible mitigation measures to reduce fine particulate emissions are presented. In particular, an adaptation of an adequate braking process can significantly mitigate emissions and subsequently reduce harmful effects on human health and the environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
