scope:
This standard describes a method for the thermographic determination of elemental carbon in atmospheric particles. It defines the general conditions for measurements at sites of high traffic density. When using the method at other types of site, the likelihood of artefacts, e.g. through an elevated fraction of organic carbon, must be taken into account.
This standard defines both the filter material and the temperature programme to be applied for the split between organic carbon compounds and elemental carbon in the analysis.
The actual sampling procedure is defined in DIN EN 12341, and is not the subject of this standard.

Introduction
In spite of the considerable decrease the emissions from motor vehicle traffic are a major source of air contamination in inner cities [1]. These emissions are becoming of special...
