With the electrification of road vehicles leading to a reduction in tailpipe emissions, relative contribution non-exhaust emissions (NEEs) has become increasingly prominent. NEEs, particularly nanoparticles smaller than 100 nm aerodynamic diameter (PM0.1), present significant health and environmental risks. A comprehensive understanding strategic management these are urgently required mitigate their impact. This article reviews existing studies reveals that NEEs generated from brake tyre wear under critical temperature conditions, while resuspension do not directly produce but contribute larger particles. Common methodologies studying include laboratory experiments (with dynamometers, chassis simulators), field tests (tunnel real emission tests), source apportionments. The rate PM0.1, calculated based on particle number concentration, ranges 1.2% 98.9%, depending driving conditions. Extreme conditions result high nanoparticle generation. Emission inventories reveal PM0.1 levels have remained stable since 2020, without an observable reduction. Moreover, attributable found surpass those wear. Current mitigation strategies focus material improvements for pads tyres, better maintenance, regulatory measures. Mitigating impacts nanoscale particulate matter requires additional research regulations control it at source.

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Cellular exposure to diluted exhaust gas is a promising method assess the adverse effects of road traffic on human health. To fully understand potential correlation between emission patterns, vehicle technologies and cellular toxicity in real-world scenarios, further research needed. This study evaluates emissions from two advanced technology vehicles driving conditions. One gasoline direct injection (GDI) with particle filter (GPF), while other port fuel (PFI) hybrid without GPF. The were tested chassis dyno using Real Driving Emissions (RDE) test cycle that replicates on-road included both cold hot starting engine Human epithelial A549 cells exposed an Air Liquid Interface (ALI) system toxicity.
