금년 1월 1일부터 수도권 대기환경개선에 관한 특별법이 시행되었다. 특별법의 시행으로 정부는 현재 각각 $76{\mu}g/m^3$과 36ppb 수준인 $PM_{10}$과 $NO_2$의 연평균을 10년 내 $40{\mu}g/m^3$과 20ppb까지 낮출 것을 목표하고 있다. 특별법에서는 주로 $PM_{10}$과 $NO_2$와 같은 1차 오염물질만을 언급하고 있으나 정부는 이들의 농도가 낮아짐으로써 고농도 오존과 시정 장애도 개선될 것을 기대하고 있다. 그러나 중국으로부터 오염물질 유입과 광화학반응에 의한 2차 생성으로 인하여 국지 배출 저감에 의한 $PM_{10}$의 농도 감소 효과는 크지 않을 수 있다. 실제 고농도 오존이 빈번한 오존 시즌 동안 수도권 $PM_{10}$의 대부분은 지역규모의 2차 생성 비중이 높은 $PM_{2.5}$이다. 뿐만 아니라 많은 모델링 결과들이 수도권의 상당한 지역에서, $NO_x$를 줄일 경우 오존 농도가 상승하는 소위 '$NO_x$ 불이익' 현상이 나타날 수 있음을 지적하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 수도권의 오염 현황을 살펴보고, 장거리 이동 효과와 광화학 오염 특성 등 이슈와 함께, 특별법의 성공적 이행에 필요한 과제들에 대하여 논의하였다.

An experimental investigation of the gas-phase photooxidation of toluene-NO$_{x}$-air mixtures at sub-ppm concentrations has been carried out in a 6.9 ㎥, indoor smog chamber irradiated by blacklights. Measured parameters in the toluene-NO$_{x}$ experiments included aerosol, $O_3$, NO, NO$_2$, NO$_{x}$ CO, SO$_2$ toluene, and air temperature. The initial toluene concentration ranged from 225 ppb to 991 ppb and the initial concentration ratio of toluene/NO$_{x}$ in ppbC/ppb was in the range of 5～20. It was found that the variation of aerosol number concentration with irradiation time caused by the photooxidation of toluene-NO$_{x}$-air mixtures depended on the initial toluene concentration for similar concentration ratio of toluene/NO$_{x}$. The dependency of initial toluene concentration on the photooxidation of toluene-NO$_{x}$-air mixtures for toluene/NO$_{x}$= 5～6 seemed to be opposite to that for toluene/NO$_{x}$=10～11. The maximum number concentration of aerosols formed by photooxidation and the aerosol yield depended on both initial toluene concentration and initial concentration ratio of toluene/NO$_{x}$. In this study, the aerosol yield, defined as aerosol formed per unit toluene consumed, was found to be 0.01～0.16.und to be 0.01～0.16.

$Bi_2Sr_2CuO_x$ thin films have been fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using the ion beam sputtering method. During the deposition, 10 and 90 wt%-ozone/oxygen mixture gas of typical pressure of $1{\sim}9{\times}10^{-5}\;Torr$ are supplied with ultraviolet light irradiation for oxidation. XRD and RHEED investigations reveal out that a buffer layer with some different compositions is formed at the early deposition stage of less than 10 units cell and then Bi-2201 oriented along the c-axis is grown.

In predicting oxidants concentration, the most important fact is to select a suitable photochemical reaction mechanism. Sensitivity analysis of $O_3$ and other important photochemical oxidants concentrations was conducted by using CBM-IV model. The predicted oxidants concentration was considerably related with the initial concentration of formaldehyde, $[NO_2]/[NO],\;NO_x$, RH and RCHO. As the initial concentration of formaldehyde increased, concentration of $NO_2$ increased. $O_3$ concentration was proportional to the $[NO_2]/[NO]$ ratio. When the initial concentrations of RH and RCHO were high, photochemical reaction was more reactive, including more rapid conversion of NO to $NO_2$ and increased oxidants. Also, the sensitivities of ozone formation to rate constants, $K_l,\;K_2\;and\;K_3$ in the $NO_2$ photolysis were studied.

가스 중에 포함되어 있는 질소산화물을 안전하게 처리하기 위하여 저온 플라즈마 반응기를 제작하여 반응기내에 공급되는 반응물질의 유량과 방전주입전력량에 대한 장치의 특성을 실험적으로 조사하고, 유효성을 검정하였다. 반응가스는 $NO/N_2$ 혼합가스와 $N_2/O_2$ 혼합가스를 이용하여 초기 NO 농도를 설정하고, 유속을 1~4 l/min으로 공급하였다. 반응물질의 유량이 증가할 때 NO의 감소율이 낮고, 방전주입전력이 높을 때 NO의 분해가 용이하였다. 또한 반응물질의 지연시간이 길고 방전주입전력이 높을수록 NO의 분해에너지 효율이 높았으며, 유량이 많고 방전 주입 전력량이 증가할수록 오존의 생성량이 증가하였다.

The quantitative knowledge of N $O_{\gamma}$ (＝N $O_{x}$ ＋HN $O_3$＋/PAN＋N $O_3$ ＋$N_2$ $O_{5}$ ＋HN $O_2$＋N $O_3$$^{-10}$ ＋organic nitrates＋......)distribution is essential in tropospheric chemistry, especially, especially that related to understanding the processes leading to ozone production. Ambient concentrations of NO, N $O_2$, HN $O_3$ and PAN as well as total N $O_{\gamma}$ were measured during June and early July 1992 at a rural site(Candor, NC), in the central Piedmont region of NC. The measurements of N $O_{\gamma}$ species were made in an effort to provide a comprehensive understanding of nitrogen chemistry and to investigate the total nitrogen budget at the site. N $O_{\gamma}$, N $O_2$, and NO showed diurnal variations with maxima in the morning. The maximum N $O_{\gamma}$ concentration reached was 14.5 ppbv, and the maximum concentrations of NO and N $O_2$ were 5.4 and 7.8 PPbv, respectively. The mean N $O_{\gamma}$ concentration as found to be 2.88$\pm$1.58 ppbv(n=743). The mean concentrations of NO and N $O_2$, were found to be 0.15 $\pm$ 0.29 ppbv(n＝785) and 1.31 $\pm$ 0.99 ppbv(n＝769). Products of photochemical oxidants, (N <$O_{\gamma}$-N $O_{x}$ ), such as HN $O_3$ and PAN, as well as ozone showed diurnal variation with maxima in the afternoon and minima at night The fractions of individual reactive nitrogen species to total N $O_{\gamma}$ were investigated and contrasted to the results from remote marine site and rural continental sites. N $O_{x}$ was the major species to total N $O_{\gamma}$(45%). NO concentrations appeared to be nearly constant whether the Prevailing winds were from continental areas or from oceanic areas. Linear regression of $O_3$ with (N $O_{\gamma}$- N $O_{x}$ )/N $O_{\gamma}$ (i.e. percent N $O_{x}$ converted to the photochemical products of N $O_{\gamma}$) yielded ( $O_3$) ＝25.8 〔 N $O_{\gamma}$-N $O_{x}$ 〕/(N $O_{\gamma}$) ＋27, ( $r^{2}$＝0.58). The regression intercept is interpreted as the ozone back ground (intercept=27ppbv) and the slope suggests that 8.6 molecules of ozone are formed per molecule of N $O_{x}$ oxidized products (when the average N $O_{\gamma}$ concentration, about 3 ppbv at the site, is used). The N $O_{x}$ N $O_{\gamma}$ ratio was used as an indicator of the chemical age of airmasses and the ratio showed strong positive correlations with HN $O_3$( $r^{2}$=0.58), PAN ( $r^{2}$=0.46) and $O_3$( $r^{2}$=0.62). Larger N $O_{\gamma}$ and N $O_{x}$ N $O_{\gamma}$ ratio were found when winds came from continental sides. It may suggest that synoptic meteorological conditions and transport of N $O_{x}$ are important in the distribution of N $O_{\gamma}$ and its relationship with photochemical oxidants at the site.

With the increasing number of automobiles, the problem of air pollution from the exhaust gases of automobiles has become a critical issue. The principal gases that cause air pollution are nitrogen oxide or NO$_x$(NO and NO$_2$), and CO. Because NO$_x$ gases cause acid rain and global warming and produce ozone(O$_3$) that leads to serious metropolitan smog from photochemical reaction, they must be detected and reduced. Mixtures of WO$_3$ and $In_2O_3$(WO$_3$:$In_2O_3$=10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7, and 0:10 in wt.%), which are NO$_x$ gas-sensing materials, were prepared, and thick-film gas sensors that included a heater and a temperature sensor were fabricated. Their sensitivity to NO$_x$ was measured at 250$\sim$400$^{\circ}C$ for NO$_x$ concentrations of 1$\sim$5 ppm. The $In_2O_3$ thick-film sensor showed excellent sensitivity($R_{gas}/R_{air}$=10.22) at 300$^{\circ}C$ to 5-ppm NO. The response time for 70 % saturated sensitivity was about 3 seconds, and the sensors exhibited very fast reactivity to NO$_x$.

동아시아 지역은 최근 인구급증과 경제성장으로 인해 화석연료의 사용이 증가함에 따라 이로 인한 대기오염물질 배출이 증가하여 대기질이 점차 악화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 OMI (Ozone Monitoring Instrument) 위성 자료와 국가 대기오염물질 배출량 자료(National Emission Inventory)를 활용하여 동아시아의 대기현황 및 우리나라의 대기질에 국내외 배출량이 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 미래 배출량을 추정하였다. 2005년부터 2015년까지 동아시아의 NO₂, SO₂ 농도를 분석한 결과, 두 물질 모두 NEC (North East China), SEC(South East China), SMA (Seoul Metropolitan Area) 순으로 높았다. SO₂는 우리나라와 중국의 편차가 크게 나타나NEC 지역은 SMA보다 1.63배 높았다. 농도비와 배출비 분석을 통해 국외 배출원이 우리나라 대기환경에 미치는 영향을 간접적으로 파악할 수 있었는데, NO₂/SO₂ 농도비는 우리나라와 중국 모두 2013년에 가장 높았고, SMA의 NO_x/SO_x 배출비는 2013년 이후 22% 이상 증가했다. 국내 배출량은 지속적으로 감소했으나 농도-배출량 비율(NO₂/NO_x, SO₂/SO_x)은 점차 증가하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이는 곧 국내 배출량 외에 다른 요인(국외 배출원, 체류시간 변화 등)이 우리나라 수도권의 대기질에 영향을 주고 있다는 것으로 해석된다. SMA의 미래 배출량은 2025년에 NO_x, SO_x가 각각 296.2, 39.0 kton, 2035년에는 284.4, 33.8 kton 만큼 배출될 것으로 예측되었다. 본 연구에서는 공간적 제약을 받지 않는 위성자료의 장점을 이용하여 농도와 배출량 사이의 유의미한 결과를 도출하였으며, 이 연구에서 사용된 위성관측 농도와 배출량 간의 상호비교 분석방법론과 GEMS(Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer) 위성 산출물을 활용하여, 향후 국내 대기질 영향요인을 파악하기 위한 국외 발 대기오염물질 기여도 분석과 배출 인벤토리 보완을 위한 기초 자료를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

For the first time in the city of Riyadh, the formation of $O_3$ and its relationship with NO and $NO_2$ ($NO_x$) was investigated. Throughout the summer $O_3$, NO, and $NO_2$ were collected from three locations: residential, industrial, and rural areas. During the sampling period $O_3$ concentrations exceeded 1-hour local standards a few times yet remained consistent with the standards most of the time. The $O_3$ concentrations were observed highest in the rural location and lowest in the industrial area. The diurnal variation of NO followed a double peak: one in the morning and the other in the evening, representing the traffic pattern. Early morning NO peaks were observed in the rural location, which were attributed to the movement of NO from other locations. The $O_3$ concentrations depicted typical pattern, increasing after sunrise and reaching its maximum during midday. The highest $O_3$ concentrations were observed in the rural location followed by the residential and industrial. $NO_2$ photolysis rates were 3-4 times higher compared to other similar investigations, potentially due to intense solar radiation. A strong negative correlation was observed between $NO_x$ and $O_3$ values in the industrial location indicating photochemical activities around the industrial area were higher, likely due to additional $NO_x$ emissions from industries. Regression analysis of $NO_x$ and OX ($O_3+NO_2$) indicated that in residential and industrial locations at nighttime there were large $NO_x$ independent regional contributions which is attributed to VOCs. The Weekend Effect was observed in the city potentially due to the production of the OH radical and subsequent reactions with VOCs implying that the area is VOC-sensitive.

Ozone has been a problem in big cities. That is secondary air pollutant produced by nitrogen oxide and VOCs in the atmosphere. In order to solve this, the first to be the analysis of the $NO_x$ and VOCs. The main source of nitrogen oxide is the road mobile. Industrial sources in Seoul are particularly low, and mobile traffics on roads are large, so 45% of total $NO_x$ are estimated that road mobile emissions in Seoul. Thus, it is necessary to clarify the relation with the activity of road mobile source and $NO_x$ concentration. In this study, we analyzed the 4 locations with roadside automatic monitoring systems in their center. The V.K.T. calculating areas are set in circles with 50 meter spacing, 50 meter to 500 meter from their center. We assumed the total V.K.T. in the set radius affect the $NO_x$ concentration in the center. We used the hourly $NO_x$ concentrations data for the 4 observation points in July for the interference of the other sources are minimized. We used the intersection traffic survey data of all direction for construction of the V.K.T. data, the mobile activities on the roads. ArcGIS application was used for calculating the length of roads in the set radius. The V.K.T. data are multiplied by segment traffic volume and length of roads. As a result, the $NO_x$ concentration can be expressed as linear function formula for V.K.T. with high predictive power. Moreover we separated background concentration and concentrations due to road mobile source. These results can be used for forecasting the effect of traffic demand management plan.
