简介:个人暴露于城市路边的车辆废气和非废气排放物,会导致致癌的健康影响、呼吸系统疾病和神经系统紊乱。在本文中,试图调查的废气和非废气排放量在德里市选定的道路。研究方法:根据每小时的车辆密度和速度,本研究中考虑了三类道路:(a)低密度道路(= 10 m/s);(B)中密度道路(> 1000辆/小时,但= 7.5 m/s < 10 m/s);和(c)高密度道路(> 2000辆/小时,V < 7.5 m/s)。在选定的道路上,使用AVL DiTEST 1000分析仪测量了实际废气排放。还根据EPA AP-42方法在选定道路上进行了淤泥负荷测量。结果如下:结果表明,在高密度道路上的真实世界NO废气排放量为0.5 g/m3(2.03 g/km),在低密度和中等密度道路上为0.23 g/m3(0.67 g/km)。这些值显着高于Bharat标准(BS)IV(0.25 g/km)。不同类型道路上的泥沙负荷表明,低、中、高密度道路上的粉尘沉降量分别为3、25和44 g/m2·d。使用US-EPA AP-42方法测量PM2.5和PMa排放率,发现低密度道路的PM2.5和PMa排放率最低,分别为0.54和2.22 g/VKT(VKT -车辆行驶公里数),高密度道路的PM2.5和PMa排放率最高,分别为12.40和51.25 g/VKT。结论:目前的研究表明,排气管(废气)和可再悬浮的道路灰尘(非废气)排放的贡献显着,并恶化当地的空气质量。虽然存在排放标准,但对于非废气排放(道路灰尘的再悬浮)没有强制性规定。因此,有必要对城市道路上的非废气排放进行监管。
Introduction: Personal exposure to elevated vehicle exhaust and non-exhaust emissions at urban roadside leads to carcinogenic health effects, respiratory illness and nervous system disorders. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the exhaust and non-exhaust emissions emitted from selected roads in Delhi city. Methods: Based on the vehicular density per hour and speed, three categories of roads have been considered in the present study: (a) low density road (= 10 m/s); (b) medium density road ( > 1000 vehicles/hour but = 7.5 m/s < 10 m/s); and (c) high density road (> 2000 vehicles/hour, V < 7.5 m/s). At the selected roads, real-world exhaust emissions were measured using AVL DiTEST 1000 analyser. The silt load measurements were also carried out as per EPA AP -42 methodology at the selected roads. Results: Results indicated real-world NO exhaust emissions of 0.5 g/m(3) (2.03 g/km) on high -density roads and 0.23 g/m3 (0.67 g/km) on low and medium density roads. These values were significantly higher than the Bharat Standard (BS) IV (0.25 g/km). The silt load on the different types of roads indicated 3, 25 and 44 g/m(2) -day dust deposition on, low, medium and high-density road, respectively. PM2.5 and PMa, emission rates were measured using US -EPA AP-42 methodology and were found to be least at low-density roads with values of 0.54 and 2.22 g/VKT (VKT -Vehicle Kilometer Travelled) respectively, and highest for high density roads with values of 12.40 and 51.25 g/VKT respectively. Conclusion: The present study reveals that both tailpipe (exhaust) and resuspend able road dust (non-exhaust) emissions contributes significantly and deteriorates local air quality. Although there exists emission standards, but there are no enforced regulations for non-exhaust emissions (resuspension of road dust). Hence, there is need to regulate non-exhaust emissions on urban roads.
