Air quality management in Vilnius


Vilnius AQM.pdf

This presentation is about the air quality management is Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Vilnius area is approximately four hundred square kilometers and population is approximately fifty hundred four thousand people. This diagram shows pollution emissions from stationary and mobile sources. It is visible that emission from mobile sources is about eighty percent of all emissions. This diagram shows pollution emissions from mobile sources by traffic structure. The major polluter is personal cars.

Review of studies on PM-toxicity

A review of recent studies on the toxicity of traffic-related particulate matter (PM), showing that the smaller PM size fractions (< PM10) have the highest toxicity. Besides, current (European) air quality standards based on 'mass concentrations' may not be accurate and 'particle number concentrations' may more accurately predict health effects.
