This study designed and constructed an experimental column far adhesion efficiency test and conducted experiment to investigate the offensive odor adhesion efficiency of filter bed materials. The offensive odor adhesion experiment was conducted using mixture of high physical adhesion efficiency material, and the fixity of deodorization microorganism of selected filter bed material was tested using ammonia exclude microorganism A4-­2 and sulfur oxidation microorganism S5­-5.2 those were cultured at the Agricultural Chemical Department of Chungnam National University, and deodorization efficiency of selected filter bed material mixture was tested. Following are summary of these tests results. 1. Amount of elimination of the offensive odor gas of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide per unit volume was 0.054 and 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in rice hull, 0.01 and 0.004 $\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in rice straw 0.158 and 0.01 $\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in coconut, 0.014 and 0.02$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ perlite, 0.004 and 0.003$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in high road ball, and 0.112 and 0.015 $\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in chaff of pine, respectively. 2. Amount of elimination of offensive odor gas of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide per unit volume was 0.045 and 0.014$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 1, 0.079 and 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 2, 0.123 and 0.017 $\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 3, 0.031 and 0.015$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 4, 0.055 and 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 5, and 0.111 and 0.020$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$ in mixture 6, respectively. 3. The offensive odor elimination microorganism inoculated to mixture of chaff of pine(70%) and perlite(30%) showed the elimination efficiency of 99.06% and 96.61% against the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, respectively, during 24 hours period.

It is recommended for the public to stay at home and to close the doors and windows when a high-particulate-matter environment such as a yellow sand event occurs outside. However, there are lack of empirical studies describing how much outdoor PM infiltrates into a closed house and how much indoor PM an inhabitant is exposed to during the period. In this study, the $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ were measured at the kitchen in an apartment house by an optical particle counter for 3 days including a yellow sand event. The outdoor PMs and the outdoor wind speeds were referred from surrounding weather stations. We analyzed the penetration of $PM_{10-2.5}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ at the test house against the outdoor wind speed supposed corresponding to the change of air exchange rate. In addition, the effect of an indoor activity on change in the indoor PM was investigated. In result, the indoor $PM_{10-2.5}$ was very low even a yellow sand event occurred outside; rather, a contribution of indoor activities to increase in $PM_{10-2.5}$ was higher. In contrast, the indoor $PM_{2.5}$ fluctuated following the outdoor $PM_{2.5}$ trend at high wind speeds or remained almost constant at low wind speed.
