Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a specific source of air pollution: dust from paved and unpaved roads. The author examines the impact of this dust on air quality in both urban and rural environments. By comparing different methods of measuring particulate matter, the author provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of street sweeping in reducing air pollution. The analysis of chemical elements in the collected dust helps identify the sources of particulate matter. The author concludes that road dust is a significant contributor to air pollution, particularly for coarse particulate matter, and that street sweeping, as implemented in the study, is not an effective method for reducing this type of air pollution. The findings in this book have implications for air quality management and urban planning, particularly in areas where road dust is a major source of air pollution.
