In order to comprehension of the behaviour of PAHs in air which is known as carcinogens and/or mutagens suspended Particulates in ambient air were collected by Anderson air sampler from 1992. 6 to 1993. 5 in Seoul. Ten species of PAHs( Phen, An, Fl, R, Py, BaAn, BaP, Chry, BeP, DiB(a, h)An, I123p) were analyzed to understand monthly variations of PAHs distribution of PAHs concentration according to particle size, and correlation between PAHs and independent charactierstics of PAHs The highest concentration of TSP was 155.58$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ in May and the lowest was 60$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ in August. Concentration of TSP was more affected by coarse particles in spring, otherwise which was more affected by fine particles in winter. According to results of anaylsis of samples that were collected by Anderson air sampler, concentration of PAHs was more high in winter than that in summer. In almost samples collected by Anderson air sampler, concentration of PAHs was more high in coarse particles than in fine particles, but BaP well known as carcinogenic matter had more high concentration in fine particles(56-97.5%) than that in coarse particles(2.5-46%). Correlation between concentrations of TSP and PAHs was more high in fine Particles than in coarse Particles. Both fine particles and coarse particles have negative correaltion with radiation.

In situ particle size spectra are obtained from two sequent cruises in order to evaluate the physical consequences of suspended particulate matters caused by episodic storm runoff from the Santa Ana River watershed, an urbanized coastal watershed. Suspended particles from various sources including surface runoff, near-bed resuspension, and phytoplankton are identified in empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis and an entropy-based parameterization (Shannon entropy). The first EOF mode is associated with high turbidity and fine particles as indicated by the elevated beam attenuation near the Santa Ana River and Newport Bay outlets, and the second EOF mode explains the suspended sediment dispersal and particle coarsening at the near-surface plume. Chlorophyll particles are also distinguished by negative magnitudes of the first EOF mode, which is supported by the relationship between fluorescence and beam attenuation. The integrated observation between the first EOF mode and the Shannon entropy index accentuates the characteristics of two different structures and/or sources of sediment particles; the near-surface plumes are originated from runoff water outflow, while the near-bottom particles are resuspended due to increased wave heights or mobilizing bottom turbidity currents. In a coastal pollution context, these methods may offer useful means of characterizing particle-associated pollutants for purposes of source tracking and environmental interpretation.

This study was intended as an investigation of characteristics of background site atmospheric respirable particulate matters(RPM), and fine particles(<2.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). The particle size distributions during the phenomenon of Yellow Sand(YS) occurs from April, 2001. Atmospheric aerosol particulate matter was directly collected on the Jeju island between 1 to 30, April, 2001 using an eight-stage cascade impacter(particle size range: 0.43-11 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$), and cyclone separator(cut size: 2.5, 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). The episode of YS observed in background monitoring site, Kosan and appeared 2 times at sampling period. The mass concentrations of fine and coarse particles for YS episode were 34.2 and 59.6 $\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥, respectively, which were significantly increased amounts compared to 13.3 and 13.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ for NonYS(NYS). Most size distributions had two peaks, one at 0.43∼.65 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the other at 3.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$4.7 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The result of analysis of water-soluble ion component indicated that sulfate was mainly ion component, but nitrate and calcium ion was significantly increased at the YS episode.

The emission characteristics of particulate matter (PMs) and heavy metals from hazardous industrial wast incinerators were investigated. The particle size distribution (PSD) of PM-10 showed different patterns for two tripes of incinerators; stoker and rotary kiln. However both types showed bimodal form at inlet of air pollution control devices (APCD) and each peak (mode) is located at smaller than 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and near 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. It could explain the growth of fine PM by nucleation/coagulation/condensation of metal vapors for fine mode. The PSD of PM-10 after APCD was also influenced by APCD types that had different collection mechanism, and both electrostatic precipitator and bag filter showed less collection efficiency for particles ranged from 0.2 to 0.4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and led to a mode in the range of 0.2 to 0.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. However the hag filter showed two modes of PSD, while the electrostatic precipitator had one peak. The PMs and heavy metals emission factors, the representative value of emission quantity for sources, for tested facilities were developed. The emission factor of uncontrolled total PM and PM-10 were 14.7 and 7.05 kg/ton waste, respectively. The emission factors from this study were a little bit different with those from US EPA AP-42. It may thus be appropriate to use these results in the course of developing national emission factors.

우리가 숨쉬고 있는 대기 중에는 많은 부유 먼지가 존재하고 있으며, 이는 산업활동의 증가와 도시화, 차량 수 등의 증가로 인하여 그 종류와 농도가 크게 변화하여 자연 생태계 및 인체 건강에 심각한 영향과 피해를 유발시키고 있다(1989; 1996). 이러한 부유 먼지는 거대먼지(coarse particle)와 미세먼지(fine particle)로 분류할 수 있다. 미세먼지에는 여러 가지 금속성분, 유기물질,virus, 조류 및 곰팡이 등이 포함되어 있으며, 다환 방향 족 탄화수소(polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, PAH) 등의 발암성 물질이 포함되어 있다.

Atmospheric particulate matter (A. P. M.) was collected and size-fractionated by an Andersen high-volume air sampler over 15 month period from Jan. 1985 to Feb. 1986 in Seoul. The concentration of chloride, nitrate and sulfate were extracted in an ultrasonic bath and were analyzed by ion chromatography. The annual arithmetical mean of A. P. M. was 128.54 $\mug/m^3$. The concentration of anions were 2.88 $\mug/m^3$ for chloride, 3.86$\mug/m^3$ for nitrate, and 25.44$\mug/m^3$ for sulfate. The content of A. P. M. was lowest in the particle size range 1.1 $\sim 3.3\mum$ and increased as the particle size increased or decreased. And the anions exhibited a seasonal variation in the isize distribution. The contents of anions were higher in winter than summer. Ther ratio of fine particles to the total particles defined by F/T for chloride, nitrate and sulfate. The F\ulcornerT of these anion generally decrease with increasing air temperature. This tendency was prevalent in the chloride and nitrate.

근래에 미세먼지가 대기환경 관련하여 이슈가 되고 있으며, 초미세먼지의 효과적인 집진을 위하여 대용량화가 용이한 여과집진기가 상업적으로 사용될 수 있는지에 대한 평가가 필요하다. 실험실 규모의 여과집진 장치를 제작하여, PTFE 재질의 부직포 여과백 또는 PTFE membrane이 코팅된 PTFE 재질의 부직포 여과백에서의 미세먼지 집진특성을 파악하기 위하여 집진실험을 수행하였다. 실험 변수로 여과속도, 투입 먼지 농도, 입도분포가 다른 먼지 종류 등을 사용한 실험에서, 여과속도가 낮을수록, 먼지 투입농도가 높을수록, 평균입도가 클수록 집진효율이 높았으며, 여과속도가 높고, 먼지 투입농도가 높을수록 압력손실이 높게 나타났다. Pore size가 상대적으로 작은 PTFE membrane이 코팅된 여과백을 사용한 경우, 코팅이 되지 않은 여과백을 사용한 경우에 비하여 집진효율이 높고, 표면여과에 따른 포집 먼지층 저항계수가 낮아져 압력손실이 낮게 나타났다. PTFE membrane이 코팅된 여과백을 사용하여 off-line 탈진을 수행할 경우, 적정 여과속도 범위 내에서 $PM_{2.5}$에 대한 집진효율이 99.99% 이상으로 매우 높게 유지됨에 따라, 여과집진기를 사용하여 초미세먼지를 효과적으로 집진할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This study identified a particle size distribution (PSD) of fine particulate matter and emission characteristics of V and Ni by the comparison between anthropogenic sources of oil combustion (industrial boiler, oil power plant, etc.) and lab-scale combustion using a drop-tube furnace. In oil combustion source, the mass fraction of fine particles (less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter) was higher than that of coarse particles (larger than 2.5 micrometers in diameter) in $PM_{10}$ (less than 10 micrometers in diameter) as like in lab-scale oil combustion. In addition to this, it was identified that ultra-fine particles (less than 0.1 micrometers in diameter) had a large distribution in fine particles. Toxic metals like V and Ni had large mass fractions in fine particles, and most of all was distributed in ultra-fine particles. Most of ultra-fine particles containing toxic metals have been emitted into ambient by combustion source because it is hard to control by the existing air pollution control device. Hence, we must be careful on these pollutants because it is obvious that these are associated with adverse health and environmental effect.

지하철 터널 내에 축적된 미세먼지와 초미세먼지를 제거하기 위해서는 새로운 형식의 분진흡입차량이 필요하다. 따라서 최근 개발된 분진흡입차는 초미세먼지 제거를 위한 흡입시스템과 사이클론형식의 전처리부 및 전기집진기를 장착하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 집진차량의 하부에 설치된 먼지 흡입시스템이 다양한 크기의 먼지입자를 효과적으로 흡입하고 처리하기 위해 사이클론형식의 전처리부가 포함된 집진시스템을 설계하고 집진효율을 ANSYS FLUENT의 전산유체해석을 통해 확인하였다. 흡입구와 사이클론형 프리필터가 연결된 격자모델을 기반으로 공기유동과 상차분모델(Discrete Phase Model)을 이용하여 다양한 입자의 크기와 종류 및 흡입팬의 용량에 따른 입자의 거동을 해석하였다. 다양한 입자의 크기와 종류, 흡입팬의 용량에 대해서 해석결과 집진차량의 운영속도 5km/h에서 미세먼지처리를 위해서는 흡입팬의 용량 $1500m^3/min$에서 흡입구가 궤도면으로부터 약 100mm이내일 때 $100{\mu}m$ 이하 크기의 먼지를 모두 처리할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 흡입구와 사이클론형식의 프리필터를 탑재한 터널집진차량은 후단에 설치된 전기집진기의 부하를 줄이고, 지하 터널내의 미세먼지와 초미세먼지의 제거에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
