Abstract: | Background It is estimated that over 80% of respirable particulate matter (PM10) in cities comes from road transport and that tire and brake wear are responsible for the 3–7% emission of it. Data on the
indicators of environmental impact of tire debris (TD), originated from the tire abrasion on roads, are extremely scarce,
even though TD contains chemicals (zinc and organic compounds) which can be released in the environment. |
