2 Ultrafine particle toxicology is a research priority Combustion-generated ultrafine particle emissions is a research priority for CARB as some research evidence suggests that ultrafine particles may be important in the inducement of adverse health effects, but the toxicology of ultrafine particles is remains poorly understood. Until the science of ultrafine particle toxicology gives better guidance, we will continue to use particle mass as the best indicator of PM related adverse health effects.
3 Intriguing health-related findings Ultrafines Create greater inflammatory response than fine PM Affect heart rate variability Are more potent in inducing cellular damage than fine PM May be associated with premature death
4 Why are ultrafine particles harmful? Little mass, but: Possess large surface area and numbers Contain toxic components (e.g. metals, organics) Initiate harmful oxidant injury in lung Have high deposition rate in the lung Can access circulatory system and move from lungs to other organs
5 Particle size and composition: relation to toxicity Coarse Fine Ultrafine Size µm µm <0.15 µm Organic carbon content Elemental carbon content Metals as % of total elements PAH content Redox activity (DTT assay) HO-1 induction GSH depletion Mitochondrial damage None Some Extensive Li et al., CI (2003)
6 Sources of ambient ultrafine particles (<100 nm) Source contributions to primary ultrafine particle emissions in the South Coast Air Basin (1996) Petroleum industry 0.5% Stationary fuel use 32.2% Miscellaneous processes 5.2% Surface coating 0.2% On-Road vehicles 43.1% Other mobile sources 10.4% Primary ultrafine particle originate almost exclusively from combustion sources. Cass et al., PTRSL (2000) Other industrual processes 7.2% Waste burning 1.3%
7 Exposure and diurnal variations 2.5E+05 Particle Particle Size Distribution Counts Community and Freeways, Los Angeles Exposure to ultrafine particles is very different on a freeway dominated by diesel trucks (710), or by light-duty vehicles (110), and in the community. Westerdahl and Fruin, AE (2005) Diurnal variations of ultrafine particle concentrations in the community can be significant. In the San Joaquin Valley, emissions from evening wood burning can greatly increase concentrations. Herner and Kleeman, unpublished dn/dlogdp dn/dlogdp 2.0E E E E E+00 40,000 30,000 20,000 10, Particle Diameter [nm] Diurnal Variations in Particle Size Distribution Bakersfield Jan 04, 2001 Pasadena Night Day Particle Size [nm ]
8 Freeway traffic impacts Source: Sioutas with permission Nanoparticles are removed quickly This behavior is best explained by dilution and condensation/evaporation Zhang et al., AE (2004)
9 Application to land-use planning Air Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective ( Zhu et al., AE (2002)
10 In-vehicle fraction of total exposure 6% of day spent driving can represent up to 50% of our exposures In-Vehicle, arterial Outdoors In-Vehicle, freeway Home, night Home, evening Work (office bldg) Home, night In-Vehicle, freeway Work (office bldg) Home, evening In-Vehicle, arterial Outdoors Average Time Spent Contribution to Exposure Fruin, ARB (2004)
11 Emissions from internal combustion engines Ultrafine particle emissions are not a dieselonly problem More stringent emission standards will lower mass Control technology for solid particles Agreed-upon measurement protocols for ultrafine particle emissions from vehicles still emerging Nucleation events observed driving on road
12 New diesel engine standards will control PM mass emissions g/bhp-hr NOx PMx10 On-Road Engines 0 No Control PM mass control does not automatically imply ultrafine particle number control
13 Diesel particle filter (DPF) is the key enabling technology for Diesel PM emission reduction Diesel Particulate Filters
14 Laboratory measurements suggest reduction of diesel ultrafine particle emissions by traps Particle number concentration, #/cc 1E+10 1E+4 With trap No trap Particle Size, nm dn/dlogdp, part./cc 1.E+07 1.E+06 1.E+05 1.E+04 1.E+03 Average Size Distribution (minidiluter) - 55mph Particle Diameter, Dp [nm] Uncorrected for dilution No trap With trap Chatterjee et al., SAE (2002) Holmen and Ayala, ES&T (2002)
15 Potential for formation of nuclei mode particles during real world driving There is concern that the use of DPF increases the number of nanoparticles. The contention is that post tail-pipe sulfuric acid and organic vapors are now nucleating rather than condensing onto the removed soot particles. Burtscher, JAS (2005) On road measurements behind a CRTequipped diesel truck had a distinctive nucleation mode. Authors suggests nucleation will happen after degreening of catalyzed traps. Kittelson et al., JAS (in press)

18 On-going CARB-sponsored research Health and Exposure Extension of NIH Cardiovascular Health Study UCI/USC/UCLA Cardiovascular effects of fine and ultrafine particles during freeway travel UCLA Ultrafine particles and black carbon at LAX UCLA Ultrafine particles in schools and homes UCB Spatial distribution of ultrafine particles in community air USC Spatial gradients of pollutants in Wilmington using a mobile monitoring platform UCLA/CARB staff Emissions and Control Toxicity of emissions from heavy-duty and light-duty vehicles USC/UCLA/CARB staff Evaluation of the European Particle Measurement Program (PMP) protocol for measuring solid particles UCR/CARB staff
19 Final remarks Ultrafine particles may be responsible for adverse health effects distinct from PM 2.5 mass, but mechanisms are poorly understood. Exposures to ultrafine particles are highest near combustion sources. It is important to ensure that particle counts are reduced in conjunction with particle mass. Understanding of these issues is an important research priority for CARB. The results are important to future air quality standards and regulatory programs.
