To investigate the an air pollution by particulate matter and its dispersion, a cement plant produceing portland cement 600,000 ton/year and its vicinity were surveyed from Obtober, 1980 to April, 1983. The survey was mainly focused on main stack emmission rate of the cement plant and particle size distribution in the dust, dustfall and total suspended particulate concentration in the area by month and distance from the stack. The results of the study were as follows; 1. The main stack emission rate was surveyed before and after the spray tower was additionally installed to the original E.P bag filter. Before the spray tower installed, the main stack emission rate was higher ($0.64g/Nm^3$) than the emission standard of Korean Environmental Preservation Law's ($0.59g/Nm^3$, amended to $0.4g/Nm^3$ on April 1983), but after the spray tower was installed, its main stack emission rate was markedly decreased to the standard ($0.43g/Nm^3$). 2. $2{\sim}3{\mu}m$ of the particle size was the largest portion (20.8%) of the dust particulate from the main stack and 50% of the frequency distribution was $1.5{\mu}m$ of the size. Most particle size was below $10{\mu}m$. 3. The spray tower reduced the dustfall to $37.81{\sim}9.76\;ton/km^2/month$ while dustfall appeared at $45.29-15.45ton/km^2/month$, in the vicinity of plant before spray tower installed 4. Mean concentrations of total suspended particulate for 24 hours of the various stations were determined in $20.6-200.0{\mu}g/m^3$, 3 stations of tham were higher than the value of Harry and William's arthmetic average standard $130{\mu}g/m^3$. 5. Linear regression between dustfall [X] and total suspended particulate[Y] concentration was an equation, Y=4.024X+11.479.[r=0.91] 6. During the whole seasons in the opposite area 100m apart from the omission source the prevailing wind direction was with estimated more than $30ton/km^2/month$, and the concentration of total suspended particulate for 24 hours averaging time was more than $140{\mu}g/m^3$ in the same area and direction. 7. Assuming the wind direction were constant through the day dustfalls for a day were estimated at $13.40ton/km^2/day,\;10.79ton/km^2/day$ and $4.55ton/km^2/day$ at various distances of 100m, 500m and 1,500m from the emission source respectively. 8. In the simutalion of dustfall and suspended dust by area, Gaussian dispersion model modified by size distribution of particulate matter was not applicated since the emission of dust were from multi sources other them stack. From the above results, it could be applied that the dispersion of dust from the cement plant is estimated and regulated for the purpose of environmental protection.

본 연구는 포항지역 환경오염물질의 보건 환경 위해성 평가를 위한 기초연구의 일환이며, 이를 위하여 포항시에 소재한 지역대기자동측정 자료를 이용하여 연별, 계절별 $PM_10$ 농도분포에 대한 현황, 기상특성 및 오염물질 농도분포 분석을 수행하였고, 대기확산 모델(CALPUFF)을 이용하여 농도분포 특성에 대해 정성적, 정량적으로 확인하였다. 포항지역의 $PM_10$ 농도분포를 확인한 결과, 포항지역의 계절별 $PM_10$ 평균농도는 봄($75.7{\mu}g/m^3$)>여름($56.8{\mu}g/m^3$)>겨울($53.6{\mu}g/m^3$) >가을($52.7{\mu}g/m^3$) 순으로 봄에는 빈번히 발생하는 황사의 영향으로 높은 농도를 나타내었다. 포항지역 오염원별 $PM_10$ 배출량은 점오염원 62%>이동오염원 33%>면오염원 5% 순이며, 점오염원 중 전체 97%가 철강산업인 제철제강업에서 발생되었다. 포항지역은 $PM_10$의 영향을 많이 받고 있는 지역으로 포항철강공단지역에 대한 환경오염물질 원인배출원에 대한 감시체계의 보완 및 집중관리와 함께 포항지역 주민의 건강 보호를 위하여 보건 및 환경에 악영향을 미치는 위해인자 및 오염물질을 원천적으로 차단하는 작업이 지속적으로 수행되어야 할 시점이다.
