This study was carried out to estimate current status of dust concentrations in the factories producing non-metallic products in Korea. Data were gathered from the environmental monitoring reports by 40 workplace environmental monitoring institutes and the questionnaire designed for the study by the authors. A total of 1838 dust samples from 368 plants were obtained from the reports and were analyzed with no data modifications. But data on asbestos, rock wool, and welding fumes were excluded in this evaluation. The factories were classified into eight groups according to the standard industrial classification scheme in Korea. The results of this study were as follows; 1. The factories included were glass, non-refractory ceramic, refractory ceramic ware, structural non-refractory clay and ceramic, cement and lime, articles of concretes, and stone. Mean(geometric mean) concentrations of total dust samples ranged from $1.75(0.84)mg/m^3$ to $5.87(2.84)mg/m^3$. Statistically significantly higher dust concentrations were found in the cement and lime industries compared with other industries. 2. The non-compliance rates were 15.2% in glass and 20.6% in other non-metallic mineral products industries. Although all institutions surveyed utilized the identical sampling and classification scheme for dusts as specified in the current occupational exposure limits, wide discrepancies were found in collecting samples and classifying dusts. Further problems were discovered in classifying dusts. A dust sample collected could be classified into any of the three groups regardless of silica content. The results of this study showed that dust concentrations in the non-metallic products industries varied widely. Also discovered was classification errors of dust types among workplace monitoring institutes. These errors could adversely affect the results of exposure assessments and the true nature of dust hazards. Further, no institutions performed respirable dust sampling and analysis of crystalline silica. In order to correct these malpractices, current standards of occupational exposure limits should be revised and tight supervision by the Ministry of Labour be suggested.

황사입자들은 수 나노미터에서 수 마이크론 사이의 크기를 가지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 황사가 환경 및 인체 건강에 미치는 영향은 황사 입자의 크기에 의존한다. 입자가 작을수록 멀리까지 이동하며, 인체의 호흡기관 깊숙이 침투한다. 침강장-흐름 분획법(sedimentation field-flow fractionation, SdFFF)은 채널 내 포물선형태의 흐름(parabolic flow profile)과 외부에서 가해지는 원심력의 상호작용을 이용하여 나노 및 마이크론 크기의 입자들의 분리를 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 황사입자의 크기별 분리와 특성분석을 위한 steric 모드 침강장-흐름 분획법(Sd/StFFF)의 응용 가능성을 테스트하였다. 이를 위하여 다양한 Sd/StFFF 파라미터들을(유속, stop-flow time, 원심력의 세기, 등) 최적화 하였다. Sd/StFFF 보정곡선의 $R^2$값은 0.9983으로 높은 직선성을 보였으며, 실험결과는 Sd/StFFF가 마이크론 입자의 크기별 분리에 우수함을 보여주었다. 광학현미경(optical microscopy, OM)을 이용하여 황사입자들의 크기와 모양을 조사하였다. 황사가 진할 때에는 약할 때보다 입자크기가 증가함을 보여주었다. 또한 비가 올 때에는 건조할 때보다 입자크기가 감소하였는데, 이는 입자 표면에 흡착되어 있는 성분들이 빗물에 의해 제거되었기 때문인 것으로 보여진다. 본 연구의 결과는 Sd/StFFF가 황사와 같이 환경입자의 크기특성분석에 유용함을 보여준다.

The size-segregated atmospheric aerosols have been collected at 1100 m site of Mt. Halla in Jeju, a background area in Korea, using 8-stage cascade impact air sampler during Asian dust and non-Asian dust storm periods. Their ionic and elemental species were analyzed, in order to examine the pollution characteristics and composition change between Asian dust and non-Asian dust periods. The major ionic species such as nss-$SO_4{^{2-}}$, $NH_4{^+}$, and $K^+$ were predominantly distributed in the fine particles (below $2.1{\mu}m$ diameter), and besides the $NO_3{^-}$ was distributed more in coarse particle fraction than fine particle. On the other hand, the typical soil and marine species i.e., nss-$Ca^{2+}$, $Na^+$, $Cl^-$, and $Mg^{2+}$, were mostly existed in the coarse particles (over $2.1{\mu}m$ diameter). As well in the elemental analysis of aerosols, the major soil-originated Al, Fe, Ca, and others showed prominently high concentrations in the coarse particle fraction, whereas the anthropogenic S and Pb were relatively high in the fine particle fraction. From the comparison of aerosol compositions between Asian dust and non-Asian dust periods, the concentrations of the soil-originated species such as nss-$Ca^{2+}$, Al, Ca, Fe, Ti, Mn, Ba, Sr have increased as 2.7-4.2 times during the Asian dust periods. Meanwhile the concentrations of nss-$SO_4{^{2-}}$ and $NO_3{^-}$ have increased as 1.4 and 2.0 times, and on the contrary $NH_4{^+}$ concentrations have a little bit decreased during the Asian dust periods. Especially the concentrations of both soil-originated ionic and elemental species increased noticeably in the coarse particle mode during the dust storm periods.

The degree of iron recovery from dust agglomerates was investigated experimentally to determine the optimum mixing ratio of coke in cold bonded pellet(CBP) which is fed into electric arc furnace(EAE) in the minimill plant. From the XRD analysis for EAF dust, magnetite(Fe$_3$O$_4$) and franklinite(ZnFe$_2$O$_4$) was identified as major components. Maximum iron recovery was obtained for the solid carbon content of approximately 18 weight percent. From plant trials of CBP composed of this optimal mixing condition, it was observed that electric power consumption and sulfur content increased with increasing the quantity of CBP.

As the area where stone is used in buildings increases, the amount of stone processing increases, and the amount of dust generated in the processing process is increasing, but interest in this is insignificant. In addition, as a result of investigating the dust generated in the dry process, the proportion of SiO2 is about 70%, so there is a concern about the risk of pneumoconiosis caused by breathing. Therefore, it is judged that it is urgent to collect it at the source to prevent damage to workers and environmental pollution.

본 논문에서는 한국의 미세먼지 발생원인을 분석하는 과정에서 기존 논문에서는 고려하지 않았던 지역 간 공간상관성(Spatial correlation)을 고려한 패널계량분석을 진행하였다. 기존 환경쿠즈네츠곡선(EKC, Environmental Kuznets Curve)에 대한 연구들에서, 인접한 국가 및 지역 간에 오염물질의 상호영향이 존재할 가능성이 있음에도 각 유닛이 독립이라고 가정한다. 본 논문에서는 한국의 미세먼지농도에 대한 지역 패널데이터를 이용하여 기존 EKC가 지역의 상호상관성을 고려하는 때도 성립할 수 있으며, 이러한 영향을 고려하지 않았을 때 미세먼지농도의 원인에 대해 과소 혹은 과대 추정될 수 있음을 규명하였다.

The characteristics of Asian dust (AD) in Korea between 1997 and 2005 were investigated, focusing on peak 1-hour $PM_{10}$ concentrations during AD events at seven cities over the Korean Peninsula. The frequency of AD events decreased from Seoul to Busan, indicating the major pathway of AD in Korea was from northwest to southeast. AD events were most frequent in 2001 while peak concentrations during AD events were much higher in 2002. Recent works show that the trajectories from northerly directions increased during the 2000s and later (Chun, 2009; Kim, 2008). In this work, the fraction of trajectories from the northwest was the largest on the whole, although trajectories from each direction varied by city and year. It is presumed that high concentrations of $PM_{10}$ during AD events are generally associated with trajectories from the northwest rather than from the source region.

Precipitator is the most widespread device used to separate dust particles from the exhaust gas. In the shipyard, welding umbrellas, spark protection covers, and ventilators are not purchased and used for the work place to capture the flames and high temperature metal dust generated during the gardening process. In particular, a thorough analysis of design factors, such as capture rate, collection capacity calculation, filter speed, and materials selection, is required since spatial constraints are followed by structures, etc. In this study, conceived to address problems such as this cyclone and filtration filter system that combines all-in-one gausing collector prototype. Assessed through interpretation through the validity of the design and reliability.
