Fugitive road dust emission strengths were calculated using the AP-42 emission factor model. Silt loading on Beijing urban roads was typically less than 1.0 g/m^2, the PM10 emission strength was typically less than 100 kg/km·day, and road dust fall was typically less than 40 t/km^2·30day.

The results indicate that silt loading and emission factors are negatively correlated with traffic volume, but the PM10 emission rate and road dust-fall are positively correlated with traffic volume.展开更多
