This experimental study was to analyze thermal comfort and indoor air quality(IAQ) with ventilation and humidification in the classroom when system air conditioner was operated. The thermal comfort was estimated by the PMV index and the concentration of $CO_2$ and total suspended particle(TSP) were measured and compared with ventilation and humidification. As a result, the class room temperature distribution was $2{\sim}5^{\circ}C$ low during operating ventilation system and humidification. At 60% RH, PMV values of measuring points were ranged from +0.5 to -0.5 indicating optimal the range of thermal comfort. The average concentration of $CO_2$ gas and TSP were reduced 645 ppm, 0.17 mg/$m^3$ respectively, during operating the ventilation system. From the results, to maintain comfortable environment in the heated classroom, the ventilation and humidification were needed in winter season.

The spectroscopic characteristics and chemical oxygen demand (COD) oxidation efficiencies were investigated for dissolved organic matters (DOM) from diverse sources, which may indirectly affect the concentrations and the quality of DOM found in watersheds. The DOM investigated for this study showed a wide range of the percent distributions of refractory organic matter (R-OM) from 8 to 100%. Relatively high R-OM distributions were observed for the DOM with the source of head water, sediments, paddy soils, field soils, and treated sewage whereas the DOM from livestock waste, reed, weeds, algae, and attached algae exhibited lower R-OM percent distributions. The percent distribution of R-OM had positive correlations with specific UV absorbance (SUVA) and humidification indices (HIX) of DOM. The investigated DOM was classified into four different source groups (i.e., biota, vegetables, soils, sediments) by comparing the synchronous fluorescence spectra. The DOM group from biota source was characterized by a prominent presence of protein-like fluorescence (PLF) whereas fulvic-like fluorescence (FLF) was additionally observed for vegetable-source DOM. FLF became significant for the DOM from both soils and sediments although no PLF was found for soil-derived DOM. A range of COD oxidation efficiency was observed for the various DOM, ranging from 36 to 94% and from 65 to 125% for $COD_{Mn}$ and $COD_{Cr}$, respectively. The results indicate that $COD_{Cr}$ reflects the higher OM concentration than $COD_{Mn}$. However, 95% confidence intervals of the COD oxidation efficiencies were similar for the two types of COD, suggesting that $COD_{Cr}$ may not be the superior OM index to $COD_{Mn}$ in terms of the variability of the oxidation efficiency. No significant correlations were obtained between COD oxidation efficiencies and the spectroscopic characteristics of DOM for this study.
