Recently, interest in hygiene has been arouse in the health care field. Consequently, Filters with antibacterial agent applied to improve air quality by sterilizing bacteria, fungi, etc. We actually installed antibacterial air filter containing 2.5wt%Ag zeolite on the air intake route to air-conditioner in passenger cu, and evaluated filter's performance on antibacterial effect. By the microbe liquid spattering method, we found that the antibacterial air filter has notably sufficient antibacterial efficiency against standard strains and wild type strains. Antibacterial effect was observed at whole area of filter media by zone of inhibition test. The evaluation of microbe quantity was conducted through mixing dilution plate culture method. In comparison with ordinary filter, the amount of germs attached on antibacterial air filters was larger. The amount of germs attached on ordinary filters was very small since ordinary filters contained less dust. In comparison in antibacterial air filter with thickness, the amount of germs attached on 9mm filter was smaller than that of on 6mm filter. i.e. thicker filter, superior efficiency.

This paper was conducted concerning the degree of indoor air quality in public transport vehicles such as taxicabs, buses and subway trains, as sampled through the active participation of drivers and passengers in Seoul between 13th August 2005 and 2nd November 2005. The results were summarized as follows: 1. Among the measured substances especially respirable particulate matters ($PM_{10}$), total bacteria counts (TBC) and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) exceeded the standard level of $150{\mu}g/m^3,\;800CFU/m^3$ and 1000ppm. 2. The concentration of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) in taxi recorded 2491ppm, which is more than the standard amount of 1000ppm. This level was comparatively higher than all other public transportation methods. Total bacteria counts (TBC) in bus and subway recorded $1082CFU/m^3\;and\;1856CFU/m^3$, respectively. 3. The drivers who regularly work long hours showed the higher concern about contamination of the air inside the public transport vehicles and they considered it to be worse than the air outside. In contrast, the general public showed less concern about the air quality inside the public transport vehicles. However, they too acknowledged that the quality of the air inside the public transport vehicles was poor. In regards to the degree of indoor air quality in the public transport vehicles, a counterplan must be implemented urgently to effectively combat the excessive levels of $PM_{10}$, microorganism and $CO_2$. We need to gather more conclusive evidence pertaining to other possible contaminants and influencing factors.

환경친화적인 도로노선대 선정을 위하여 공간분석기능을 활용한 GIS 기반 환경성평가 기법을 개발하고 실제 사례노선을 통하여 검증해 보고자 하였다. 도로건설 사업으로 인해 환경훼손을 가져오는 요인에 관한 분석을 바탕으로 영향범주를 구체화 시킨 후, 이에 관한 다양한 등급화 사례 및 법적 규제에 관한 문헌조사를 수행하였다. 공간 분석을 위한 정량화 모델로는 AHP를 선택하였다. 환경성 평가항목으로는 지형지질, 동식물, 토양생태, 수질, 대기질, 소음진동, 토지이용, 위락경관의 8개 항목을 선정하고 그에 따른 세부지표를 구성하여 이를 3등급 체계로 구분하였다. 가중치 산정을 위해 쌍대비교에 의한 설문수행 결과 동식물 1등급의 가중치가 0.191로 가장 높게 산출되었다. 위 방법을 사례지역에 대하여 검증한 결과 가장 환경친화적인 도로노선대를 생성할 수 있었다.

In order to study the degree of improved air quality as an outcome of the action plan of Atmospheric Environment Improvement in Gimhae, Gyeongnam Province, we investigated the status and trends of air pollutant before and after the plan. Nitrogen dioxide and ozone, both classified as hazardous substances, were closely monitored with particular attention. The level of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, fine particles and ozone (but for carbon monoxide) was decreased after the plan was implemented. The number of days on which ozone exceeded the National Ambient Air Quality Standard has decreased, but the level was still often exceeded. The level of nitrogen dioxide did not surpass until the 2006 standard, but when the revised 2007 standard was implemented, it exceeded 80% of some standards. The yearly level of ozone has decreased since the plan was introduced. The concentration of nitrogen dioxide, however, has reduced in high order area while increased in low order area.

본 연구에서는 교통사업 시행에 따른 대기질 평가의 객관성 향상을 위하여 장래 도로이동오염원의 배출계수 예측 모형을 구축하였다. 이를 위해 자동차의 연식별 차량대수 자연감소 패턴을 분석한 후, 차령별 열화계수 등을 활용하여 2015년과 2030년의 속도별 배출계수 예측모형을 정립하였다. 본 연구에서 예측한 2030년 기준의 배출계수는 현재 교통 분야에서 적용하고 있는 배출계수와 비교해 볼 때, 운행속도 30km/h의 경우에 승용차와 버스/트럭 각각 5%~37%, 8%~83% 정도 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 실험 분석결과는 통계적으로 유의미한 것으로 판정되었으며, 이를 통해 교통사업 시행에 따른 대기질 평가를 위한 본 모형의 유용성을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 기종점 기반의 열간 냉간 시동 배출량 추정 모형과 기법을 제시하였다. 본 모형은 기존 링크 기반의 모형과 달리, 교통특성을 현실적으로 고려한 냉간 시동 배출량을 함께 추정할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 모형을 가상의 녹색교통 정책에 적용한 결과, 열간 시동 배출량은 기존 모형의 적용결과와 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 나타난 반면, 냉간 시동 배출량은 기존 모형의 적용결과에 비해 약 5배 많은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 본 모형에 의해 추정된 연간 사회적 편익은 기존 모형에 의한 37.9억원 보다 약 48% 많은 56.2억원으로 추정되어, 기존 녹색교통 정책이 대기질 개선 측면에서 저평가 받았다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구결과는 녹색교통 정책에 대한 대기질 평가 결과의 객관성을 향상시킬 수 있으며, 보다 다양한 교통-환경 정책에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

As the interest on the air pollution is gradually risen up at home and abroad, their vehicle emission regulations have been reinforcing by steps. PM regulation was also reinforced 4times for the last 13years and has been applied to SI vehicles after EURO 5. Additionally, knowing that small particles of PM can easily penetrate deep into lungs PM number was added on the regulation from EURO5+ and is applied to CI vehicles. Also, PN regulation is going to be applied to SI vehicles. But, because the regulation is appled to only a general test mode of each countries that is performed at $25{\pm}5^{\circ}C$, it is unclear whether the regulation can work on the other ambient temperature conditions or not. In this paper, to know that exhaust emission characteristics at the special conditions CI vehicles(CRDi w, w/o DPF) were tested using 5-cycle mode, NEDC mode at 5-ambient temperatures (35, 25, 0, -7 and -15) and the exhaust emission test results were discussed. The results show that the vehicle with DPF emits much low PM(and PM number) on all of the test mode. However, NOx of the other mode was emitted higher than regulation mode. Also. NOx was sharply increased according to decreasing Ambient Temperature.

경주 주변지역 시민들의 건강을 보호하고 보건 환경위해성 평가의 기초자료를 확보하기 위하여 기상학적 요소의 분포특성을 조사하고 RAMS 모델을 이용한 대기 유동장 수치모의를 수행하였다. 또한 대기오염물질 측정 및 분석과 ISC-AERMOD view를 이용한 대기오염물질의 거동을 예측하였으며 대기오염물질 관리를 통한 보건학적 피해 및 재산상의 피해를 예방하기 위한 보건 환경위해성 영향지역을 구분하였다. 경주 및 주변지역의 대기오염도를 조사한 결과 연평균 대기환경기준물질의 농도는 포항, 울산지역에 비해 약간 낮았으나 경주역 광장과 경주 용강사거리의 경우 미세먼지와 이산화질소 농도가 포항 및 울산지역 평균농도보다 높게 나타나는 경우도 발생하였다. 시민들의 건강에 영향을 미치는 대기오염물질의 이동 및 확산에 관한 모델링을 수행한 결과, 포항 철강공단지역은 POSCO와 함께 1공단과 2공단 및 3공단과 4공단 일부 지역이 미세먼지와 아황산가스 영향지역에 포함되었으며, 포항남구 해도동, 상대동, 제철동, 장흥동 등은 철강공업 및 대규모의 산업시설이 밀집되어 있어 다량의 대기오염물질이 배출되어 국지적인 대기환경질을 악화시키고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to suggest methods to investigate continuous monitoring of concentration levels and assess the exposure of individuals considering the actual time activity of residents for formaldehyde and particulate matter (PM₁₀, PM_2.5) in the indoor and outdoor air of a house, assess the health risks of children and adults based on the results of the exposure assessment, and provide basic data on studies for assessing exposure and health risks in Korea in the future. Methods: The concentration levels of formaldehyde and particulate matter were measured in a family home in Gyeonggi-do Province from April 25 to July 31, 2019, using electrochemical sensors (formaldehyde) and light scattering sensors (PM₁₀, PM_2.5). Risk assessment by the duration of exposure by time activity was performed by dividing between weekdays and weekends, and indoors and outdoors. Results: The greatest level of carcinogenic risk from inhaling formaldehyde was indoors during the weekdays for both children and adults. For children, the risk was at 7.5 per approximately 10,000 people, and for adults, the risk was at 4.1 per approximately 10,000 people. PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 also showed the greatest values indoors during the weekdays, with children at 1.7 people and 1.4 per approximately 100 people, respectively, and adults at 8.2 per approximately 1,000 and 1.8 per approximately 100 people, respectively. Conclusions: The risks of formaldehyde, PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 were shown to be high indoors. Therefore, consideration of exposure assesment for each indoor pollutant and management of indoor air quality is necessary.
