Abstract

Trace metals introduced to the environment from fuel combustion, incineration, and
industrial emission sources are causing increasing concern to air pollution PDF

researchers. Several metals in urban air, including lead and vanadium, are associated

with particles in the predominantly submicrometer diameter range thereby presenting

an inhalation threat. There is also growing evidence that some metals emitted from
stationary sources are concentrated in submicrometer sized particles which may pass
through emission control devices. This report summarizes the concentration and size
of trace metals in urban air, the concentration ranges found in selected fuels and
emission sources, and describes the areas where further studies are needed.
