1 Swedish road dust research Mats Gustafsson

2 Main research fields» Experimental studies of particle properties, emission factors, influencing material and envrironmental parameters (VTI, LU, SU, IVL)» Field studies of measures against road dust and source apportionment (Stockholm, Göteborg)» Health effects (KI, LiU, UmU). Currently no road dust specific studies, though. Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

3 Experimental studies» WearTox (finnished in 2005)» Damningsminimerad vinter- och barmarksdrift (- 2006)» NanoWear (- 2007)» WearEm (- 2008)» Beläggningars och friktionsmaterials damningsbenägenhet (- 2008) Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

4 Provvägsmaskinen (PVM) at VTI Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

5 Studies of wear particles Physical and chemical properties? Factors affecting their formation? Are they as dangerous to health as exhaust particles?

23 Emission factors for PM 10» WearTox (2005) 0,6 g/vkm (dry conditions, 100% studded tyres)» Johansson et al. (2004) 0,43 g/vkm for coarse crustal fraction at E4 Vallstanäs (cold and dry conditions, ca 40 % studded tyres)» Sjöberg & Ferm (2005) 0,2-0,4 g/vkm mean emission factor for PM 10 (ca 30 % studded tyres) Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

24 Studies on measures against road dust»pm 10 and studded tyres in Stockholm» Stockholm dustbindning experiments» Göteborg dustbindning experiments Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

25 Studded tyres and PM 10 in Stockholm streets M. Norman, C. Johansson / Atmospheric Environment 40 (2006)

26 Studded tyres and PM 10 in Stockholm streets M. Norman, C. Johansson / Atmospheric Environment 40 (2006) A 50% reduction of the vehicles using studded tyres during winter would according to our measurement reduce the weekly daytime PM 10 levels during dry conditions with around mg/m 3 during period with highest fraction of studded tyres.

29 PM 10 reduction on E4 Reduction of PM 10 concentration in percent during the day after dust bidning as compared to the control stretch.

30 PM 10 reduction on Stockholm city street Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

31 Conclusions from tests with CMA and MgCl 2 in Stockholm» CMA/MgCl 2» Effective to lower maximum concentrations during dry conditions» Considerably less exceedencies on E4» No effect on number of exceedencies in street environment» Magnesium chloride also effective Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

32 Measures against PM 10 in Göteborg Conclusions from tests with CMA and sweeping in Göteborg»PM 10 reduction with 37% first days after CMA treatment» Sweeping reduces PM 10 with 27 % (?)» Flushing of road tunnel INCREASES PM 10 concentration with 57%. Probably caused by release of dust from tunnel walls. Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

33 Health effects of road dust?» Cell study in WearTox project» Epidemiological studies (Forsberg m.fl.) Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

Left with and right without ozon in model. (Forsberg och Segerstedt, 2004).

37 Epidemiological studies Main conclusions» The concentration of road dust PM 10 affects the number of admissions for respiratory disease at least as strong as PM 10 concentration in general.» The effect of road dust PM 10 on number of acute admissions for asthma seem stronger than for PM 10 generally, while the effect on cardiovascular diseases and mortality seem weaker for road dust PM 10. Non of these effects are statistically significant, though. Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,

38 Ongoing issues of interest» Continued debate about winter tyres» Dust binding and friction» EMMA on road measurements (ITM, Stockholms universitet)» PVM tests of several pavements» Evaluation of WDS (wet dust sampler) Mats Gustafsson Trondheim,
