Fine Dust in Korea has been classified as a social disaster since 2019 due to continuous increase in concentration of Particulate Matter 10(PM 10) and PM 2.5. The fine dust issue has negative physical and mental impacts, especially on vulnerable population including children and the elderly. Seoul metropolitan government have installed fine dust shelters since 2019. However, there is a lack of research that evaluates spatiotemporal distribution of these facilities. Therefore, the first aim of this study is to find the relationship between PM levels and dust scattering construction sites, or air pollutant emission sites through in depth spatial analyses. The second purpose is to analyze the spatial distribution of PM shelters in Seoul, and to evaluate the location efficiency of them. Kernel density, krigging, and network analyses were conducted, and floating population was considered instead of census data for this research. The reults of network analysis based on the road system showed that Yangcheon-gu, Songpa-gu, Seongbuk-gu, and Dobong-gu were found to need additional fine dust shelters. Also, the results from analyzing the floating population that includes children and the elderly showed that Songpa-gu, Seodaemun-gu, Gangdong-gu, Seocho-gu, and Dongdaemun-gu need more placements of find dust shelters. The results of this study are expected to provide implications for urban planners to enhance find dust shelter placement in urban areas, and vulnerable population issues would be considered in many ways.

본 연구에서는 도시대기 중 문제시 되는 미세먼지 배출원의 주범으로 추정되는 유류를 사용하는 도로배출원(자동차)의 배출량 산정을 위한 배출계수 및 활동도 적용의 타당성과 미세먼지 제어를 위한 법제도 시행의 타당성에 대하여 분석하고 고찰하는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하였다. 실제 교통량에 근거하여 작성한 본 연구의 자동차 배출량 공간분석 결과와 기존 방법과의 차이가 나타났는데, 대기 미세먼지 농도를 알아보기 위한 대기분산모델링을 수행할 때 현실적이지 않은 배출량을 입력할 경우, 농도분포 결과의 심각한 왜곡을 초래할 수 있기 때문에 자동차 배출 미세먼지 공간분석은 실제 교통량에 근거하여 작성해야 할 것이다. 국립환경과학원방법(2010)에 사용된 자동차 미세먼지 배출계수는 주로 2003~2007년식의 자동차를 대상으로 하였기 때문에 DPF 장착 등의 효과를 반영할 수 없었고, 서울 인근 도로 노선별 자동차 미세먼지 배출량 산정결과 국립환경과학원방법과 본 연구방법의 결과가 상이하게 나타났는데, 승용차 배출량 중 휘발유차 배출량이 디젤차량 배출량과 대등하게 산정되었기 때문에, 현실에 맞는 디젤 및 휘발유 자동차 미세먼지 배출계수 개발이 필요하다.

본 연구에서는 도로환경에 적용 가능한 통기성 정전필터를 개발하여 흡착능을 평가하였다. 흡착특성은 ASHRAE 52.1, 52.2 등의 방법으로 입경별 제거율과 압력별 흡착량 등을 평가하였다. 평가 입경범위는 $0.3{\mu}m{\sim}10.0{\mu}m$로 12단계로 제거율을 평가하였다. 필터는 $2.5{\mu}m$ 이상에서 91.3%의 제거율을 보였으며 그 미만의 범위에서는 입경에 따라 감소하여 평균 53.5%의 제거율을 보였다. ASHRAE Dust 합성 분진에 의한 중량 제거율은 초기압력 22.6 mmaq에서 말기압력 35 mmaq까지 측정된 결과, 96.7%였으며 이때까지 흡착량은 $715.9g/m^2$ 이었다. 압력에 따른 흡착형태는 Langmuir 선도를 보였다. 말기압력까지 흡착된 필터를 물세정으로 1, 2차 재생한 후 흡착을 평가한 결과 제거효율에는 차이가 없었으나 초기압력과 흡착량은 약간의 저하가 발생하였다.

The garden soils, main road dusts, residential road dusts, and playground soils/dusts of Seoul, Geumsan, Onsan, and Taebaek areas were analyzed in order to investigate the level of heavy metal pollution by urbanization and industrialization. The soil pH is in the range of 5.48~8.40 and was generally neutral. The color of soils and dusts is mainly Raw Umber to dark greyish Raw Umber. Some samples from Taebaek city, a coal mining area, showed a deep black color due to contamination by coal dusts. Major minerals of the dusts and soils are quartz, feldspars, and micas, reflecting the composition of the parent rocks. However, pyrite was found as a major mineral in the samples of industrial road dusts of Onsan, a smelting area, and resicential road dusts of Taebaek. Thus, the high level of heavy metals in mining and smelting areas can be explained with the sulfide minerals. The mode of occurences of heavy metals in Seoul, a comprehensive urbanized area, were related to the metallic pollutants and organic materials through observation by scanning eletron microscopy. In main road and residential road dusts of Onsan area, Cd, Zn, and Cu were extremely high. Some industrial road and residential road dusts of Seoul area showed high Cu, Zn, and Pb contents, wereas some garden soils and residential road dusts of Taebaek area were high in As content. In general, the heavy metal contents in dust samples were two to three times higher than those in soil samples. Main road dust samples were the most reflective from the discriminant analysis of multi-element data. Cadmium, Sb, and Se in Onsan area, As in Taebaek area, Pb and Te in Seoul area were most characteristic in discriminating the studied areas. Therefore, Cd in smelting areas, As in coal mining areas, and Pb in metropolitan areas can be suggested as the characteristic elements of each pollution pattern. The dispersion of heavy metal elements in urban areas tends to orignate in main roads and deposit in garden soils through the atmosphere and residential roads. The heavy metal contamination in Seoul is characteristic in areas with high population, factory, road, and traffic decsities. Heavy metal contents are high in the vicinity of smelters in Onsan area and are decayed to background levels from one kilometer away from the smelters.

Resuspended dust from paved roads in Seoul and Incheon metropolitan areas is regarded as one of the major $PM_{10}$ sources in these areas, according to the recent emission estimates using the emission factors compiled in AP-42. It is well known that the AP-42 model for estimating $PM_{10}$ emissions from paved roads requires information on silt loadings of particular paved roads. The conventional AP-42 method (vacuum swept method) for road silt sampling, however, is expensive, time consuming, and dangerous. These drawbacks led us to develop a Mobile Dust Monitoring System (MDMS) capable of doing real time measurements of silt loading of paved roads, thereby we could get higher resolution silt loading data both in terms of time and space without too much human efforts and danger. In this study, for the real-time measurement of silt loading of paved roads, the principle used in the TRAKER method of U.S. Desert Research Institute was employed and the entire sampling systems including data acquisition system were designed for theses purpose and mounted on a SUV. The correlation between the silt loading measured by vacuum swept method and the speed corrected ${\Delta}Dust$ was derived for the vehicle-based silt loading measurements, and then the variations of silt loading on paved roads were surveyed using the MDMS in test routes of Seoul and Incheon. From the results of real-time measurements, temporal and spatial variations of silt loading data together with the existence of hot spots were observed for paved roads in Seoul and Incheon. The result of this study will be employed to estimate fugitive dust emissions from paved roads.

The objective of this study is to evaluate efficiencies of chemical suppressants for control of fugitive dust in ash pond of thermal power plant. In this study, $MgCl_2$, PAM (polyacrylamide), and PVA (poly vinyl alcohol) that are generally applied to suppression of fugitive dust generated from unpaved road, coal mining, storage piles and etc, were employed as chemical dust suppressants. The coal ash (coal combustion residuals) were sampled from the ash pond of Yeongheung power division in Incheon, South Korea. The characterization of the sample including particle size distribution, pH, $pH_{PZC}$ and pore volume as well as XRF analysis were carried out. The suppressant treated-samples were investigated with the wind tunnel experiments to estimate and compare the effect of suppressants on stabilization of the surface of coal ash samples. According to the results, the stability of suppressant-treated samples were significantly improved compared to water-treated samples. Among the three kinds of suppressants, PAM and PVA showed higher efficiencies and cost saving than $MgCl_2$.

Air pollution in subway tunnel is primarily caused from the wear of metallic materials. As undesirable substance, PM(Particulate Matter) can especially harm the health of passengers and workers as well as clog the main parts of rolling stock such as inverters. To improve the air quality in subway tunnel, SMRT(Seoul Metropolitan Rapid Transit Corporation) has developed anti-pollution devices such as Magnetic Dust Collector, Vacuum Cleaner For Rail Road and Particulate Removing Sprinkler Vehicle. Introducing these mechanical devices, this paper is mainly devoted to explaining the characteristics of collected dust according to the result of particle-size analysis and componential analysis.

This study was conducted to determine the resilient modulus (Mr) and the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of two recycled roadway materials such as recycled pavement material (RPM) and road surface gravel (RSG) with or without cement kiln dust (CKD). The recycled materials were blended with two CKD contents (5, 10 %) and 28 day curing time. Mr and UCS tests were also conducted after 10cycles of freezing and thawing to asses the impact of freeze-thaw cycling. Mr was determined conducting by the laboratory test method described by NCHRP 1-28A. Stabilized RPM and RSG had a modulus and a strength higher than unstabilized RPM and RSG. Mr and UCS of RPM and RSG mixed with CKD increased with increasing CKD content. The results indicated that the addition of CKD could be improved the strength and the stiffness of RPM and RSG. Therefore, RPM, RSG and CKD could be used as an effective materials in the reconstruction of roads.

This study investigates the concentration sudden rise in fine particle according to resuspended dust from paved roads after sudden heavy rain in Busan on August 25, 2015. The localized torrential rainfall in Busan area occurred as tropical airmass flow from the south and polar airmass flow from north merged. Orographic effect of Mt. Geumjeong enforced rainfall and it amounted to maximum 80 mm/hr at Dongrae and Geumjeong region in Busan. This heavy rain induced flood and landslide in Busan and the nearby areas. The sudden heavy rain moved soil and gravel from mountainous region, which deposited on paved roads and near roadside. These matters on road suspended by an automobile transit, and increased fine particle concentration of air. In addition outdoor fine particle of high concentration flowed in indoor by shoes, cloths and air circulation.

Pavement cutting work frequently occurs in new building construction, reconstruction, and complex construction, and this work causes a lot of noise and dust. Eco-friendly pavement cutters are being developed to reduce noise and dust in this work, however the on-site cutting performance of the equipment under development has not been quantified. In this study, the eco-friendly pavement cutter was applied to four residential areas in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, and its cutting performance was quantified. As a result of the analysis, the eco-friendly pavement cutter showed cutting performance of 20.1~46.9sec/m, and the average was 33.5sec/m. In the future, we plan to conduct additional cutting experiments with various mixing ratios, materials, and depths to confirm the performance of eco-friendly road cutters in more detail.
