Livrables

Documents, reports (8)

European and global scale estimates of the vehicle fleet contribution to organic and inorganic PM2.5 and nano-particle concentrations during all seasons

Reporting estimates obtained by using the ePMI to explore the total equivalent particle mass emissions from the vehicle fleet in Europe and globally. Refers to Task 3.4.

Secondary aerosol formation from representative (S)VOCs

Report of highly oxygenated organic molecules to secondary organic aerosol pathways as function of experimental conditions for key vehicle exhaust VOC classes (i.e., aromatics and paraffins). Refers to Task 3.2.

Literature review and toxicity rating of exhaust and secondary aerosols

Task 4.1 results including review, experimental results (IEM) and synthesis (IEM, ULUND, VTT). Refers to Task 4.1.

Aerosol dynamics during exhaust dilution and cooling

Aerosol formation and subsequent nanoparticle dynamics depend on the prevailing conditions. While cooling slows down the chemical reactions, it also lowers vapor pressures and cluster evaporation rates, thus also promoting PM formation. These details must be accounted for in providing a modeling framework from gas-to-particle conversion processes. Refers to Task 3.1.

Health impact assessment and societal costs (HIA)

HIA on mortality and morbidity attributed by population exposure to total PM and related economical costs for externalities. Estimates under different scenarios supported by emerging toxicological and epidemiological studies. Refers to Task 4.3.

Toxicity results for exhaust and secondary aerosols using basal and easily measured of toxicity markers and advanced microscopic methods

Reporting of the toxicity results for exhaust and secondary aerosols of samples obtained in WP2. Refers to Task 4.2.

Measurement results of emissions, secondary aerosol forming potential and methodology

Sections written by partners on gases, PN, BC from cars (BOSMAL), HD & marine (VTT), aircrafts (ONERA), semivolatiles (VTT), particles, SecA (TAU), aerosol composition (FMI). Summary by TAU. Refers to Task 2.2 and Task 2.3.

Evaluation of robust measurement methods for estimating secondary aerosol mass

Evaluation results of robust measurement methods for estimating secondary aerosol mass are reported. Refers to Task 2.4.

Data sets, microdata, etc (2)

Digital equivalent total particles emissions index (ePMI) module software

A user friendly equivalent total particles emissions index module (ePMI) that predicts the secondary PM2.5 and nano-particle formation rates based on a limited number of input variables ([NOx], [O3], temperature, UV-light, VOC mixtures, [NH3] etc), which are standard variables provided by regional and global scale chemistry transport models (CTM). Refers to Task 3.3.

Database of emissions, secondary aerosols and toxicity rating, Excel file

Database of EF’s for gases, PN, BC (all), semivol. (VTT), PM2.5 (incl. SecA) (TAU, FMI), toxicity (IEM). Refers to Task 5.1.
