Particle number emission factors were determined for hundreds of individual diesel and gasoline vehicles in their real operation on Finnish highways and regional roads in 2020 with one-by-one chase measurements and Robust Regression Plume Analysis (RRPA). RRPA is a rapid way to analyze data from a large number of vehicle chases automatically. The particle number emission factors were determined for four ranges of particle diameters (>1.3, > 2.5, > 10, and >23 nm). The emission factors for most of the measured vehicles were observed to significantly exceed the non-volatile particle number limits used in the most recent European emission regulation levels, for both light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles. Additionally, most of the newest vehicles (covering regulation levels up to Euro 6), for which the particle number emission regulations (non-volatile >23 nm particles) apply, showed emission factors of the >23 nm particles clearly above the regulation limits. Although the experiments included measurements of real-world plume particles (mixture of non-volatile and semi-volatile particles) and not only the non-volatile regulated particles, it is important to note that the emissions of regulated particles were also estimated to exceed the limits, based on non-volatile >23 nm particle fraction from curbside studies. Moreover, the emission factors of the >1.3 nm particles were mostly about an order of magnitude higher compared to the >23 nm particles. |
