Removal Of ‘Super-polluters’ Could Reduce Pollution From Nanoparticles By 25%
ScienceDaily (Oct. 28, 2008) — A study undertaken by researchers from the University of Alcalá (UAH) shows that if the “super-polluters”, the high-polluting vehicles, such as certain buses and lorries in a poor condition, were removed, pollution from nanoparticles could be reduced by up to 25% and 48%, depending on the parameter analysed. These minute particles can cause serious health problems.
