AbstractThis study investigates the combustion behavior, emissions, and aerosol production of four plant species: Laurus nobilis, Cistus monspeliensis, Photinia fraseri, and Cupressus sempervirens. The Heat Release Rate (HRR) and Smoke Production Rate (SPR) were measured, revealing that Cupressus sempervirens had the highest HRR and longest flame duration due to its higher bulk density. Emission Factors (EFs) for key compounds such as CO₂, CO, NO, and aerosols showed significant variation by species. Aerosol analysis indicated that the combustion of all plants primarily emitted fine particles, with the majority being ultrafine particles (PM0.1), particularly in the 25–130‐nm range. Particle size distributions were bimodal in number but monomodal in volume. These findings highlight the impact of plant characteristics on fire behavior and emissions, with significant implications for understanding fire dynamics in wildland–urban interfaces.
