This contribution reports the emission of inorganic particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter the leaf > the wood, consistent with that of the ash contents in the three components. Oppositely, the ash-based yields of PM0.1, PM0.1–1, PM1, PM1–10, PM2.5, and PM10 from the wood are substantially higher than those from the bark and the leaf. No obvious synergetic effect among different mallee components in PM10 emission is observed during the whole-tree biomass combustion, enabling the prediction of the PM10 yield from the whole-tree biomass combustion based on that from the individual mallee components.
