As exhaust emissions of particles and volatile organic compounds (VOC) from road vehicles
have progressively come under greater control, non-exhaust emissions have become an …

In this paper, the current knowledge on tyre and road wear particles (TRWP) is compiled
regarding all environmental and health aspects. TRWP generated on roads during driving …

Urban stormwater and snowmelt pollution contributes significantly to the deterioration of
surface waters quality in many locations. Consequently, the sources of such pollution have …

Wear and tear from tyres significantly contributes to the flow of (micro-) plastics into the
environment. This paper compiles the fragmented knowledge on tyre wear and tear …

Freshwater salinization is an emerging global problem impacting safe drinking water,
ecosystem health and biodiversity, infrastructure corrosion, and food production. Freshwater …

Traffic-related non-exhaust particulate matter mainly consists of tire wear, brake wear, and
road wear. For this study, passive-samplers were placed near highly frequented roads in …

Heavy metals (HMs) in soil cause adverse effects on ecosystem and human health.
Quantifying ecological risk and human health risk (HHR) from sources can determine priority …

In recent years, interest in the environmental occurrence and effects of microplastics (MPs)
has shifted towards our inland waters, and in this chapter we provide an overview of the …

Tire and road wear particles have been identified as a potential major source of
microplastics in the environment. However, more knowledge of the emissions and their …

In urban environments, particularly areas under reconstruction, metals, organic pollutants
(OP), and microplastics (MP), are released in large amounts due to heavy traffic. Road …
