Ultrafine Particles from Transportation – Health Assessment of Sources (ULTRHAS)
The emission of ultrafine particles with diameters smaller than 150 nm constitutes one of the health hazards related to transportation. The EU project ULTRHAS targets the particulate emissions of different transportation modes – passenger cars, ships, aircraft – as well as brake wear with a special focus on the ultrafine fraction. Comprehensive chemical and physical characterization of the ultrafine particles in combination with the investigation of biological and toxicological effects will provide new insights into adverse health effects.
