Abstract EN
The objective of this research paper is to describe the system architecture for an urban roadside automatic mist-generating system.
Its primary purpose is to mitigate particulate matter especially PM2.5–10.
In this paper, four graphs are provided to exhibit the constituent elements of this system.
This paper also discusses the functional extensions of this system for alternative uses in civil engineering which include winter road deicing and desnowing with added salt; clean-up of street dust; lowering of temperature of a “hot island” during the summer; the addition of humidity in an arid area; and the suppression of flu virus in the winter season.
The structure and function of this system are comprehensively discussed in this paper.
This system is compared to existing and other proposed systems in terms of control options, efficiency, and primary functional issues.
The unique design of the road automatic sprinkling system renders itself a prominent option.
Although there are no data available for this conceptual system, some expected qualitative and quantitative outcomes are provided and justified.
The paper concludes with some potential research areas and challenges associated with this system architecture.
