Abstract

In this research, the present standard analytical methods for the monitoring of air pollution levels established by the Korean Ministry of Environment (KMOE) were examined in reference to the recent outputs of several research projects conducted for their amendments. The evaluation of the two criterion methods between the main (the present guideline) and reference methods (the proposed alternate guideline) was made in terms of authenticity and reliability of the quality assurance (QA) and of compatibility of methods. The results of this comparative evaluation are presented for the analysis of both ambient air and source samples. Based on this analysis, we propose a new direction for the future amendment.
