  • Air pollution has attracted ever-increasing attention because of its substantial influence on air quality and human health. To better understand the characteristics of long-range transported pollution, the single particle chemical composition and size were investigated by the single particle aerosol mass spectrometry in Fuzhou, China from 17th to 22nd January, 2016. The results showed that the haze was mainly caused by the transport of cold air mass under higher wind speed (10 m·s-1) from the Yangtze River Delta region to Fuzhou. The number concentration elevated from 1,000 to 4,500 #·h-1, and the composition of mobile source and secondary aerosol increased from 24.3% to 30.9% and from 16.0% to 22.5%, respectively. Then, the haze was eliminated by the clean air mass from the sea as indicated by a sharp decrease of particle number concentration from 4,500 to 1,000 #·h-1. The composition of secondary aerosol and mobile sources decreased from 29.3% to 23.5% and from 30.9% to 23.1%, respectively. The particles with the size ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 ㎛ were mainly in the accumulation mode. The stationary source, mobile source, and secondary aerosol contributed to over 70% of the potential sources. These results will help to understand the physical and chemical characteristics of long- range transported pollutants.

  • 오존은 온도가 높고 태양 빛이 강한 여름철에 휘발성 유기화합물(Volatile Organic Compounds)과 질소화합물(NOx)의 광 화학 반응으로 생성되는 이차적 공해물질(Secondary Air Pollutant)이다. 성층권에 존재하는 오존은 피부암을 유발시키는 강한 자외선을 차단하고 흡수하는 고마운 존재이지만, 급속한 산업발달로 다량의 공해물질유출로 인해 생성된 지표면상의 오존은 대단히 유독해서 높은 농도에서 장시간 호흡 시 호흡기관의 장애는 물론이고 치사까지 이르게 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. (중략)

  • 미생물을 이용하여 생물분해 가능한 휘발성유기물질과 악취물질을 처리하는 생물학적 대기오염처리 기술은 기존의 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 방법에 비해 상대적으로 최근에 개발된 방법이다. 생물학적 방법에 의한 대기오염물질 처리는 기존의 처리방법을 대체할 수 있는 방법으로 각광을 받고 있다. 생물학적 처리방법은 유기화합물 또는 악취가 포함된 저농도 고유량의 공기를 처리하는데 효과적이다. 생물학적 처리방법은 기존의 소각 또는 흡착 방법에 비해 여러 장점을 가지고 있다. 주요 장점으로 처리비용이 저렴하고, 2차 오염물질이 발생되지 않으며, 화학물질이 사용되지 않고, 에너지 사용이 적으며, 상온에서의 운전 등이다. 생물학적 방법중 생물여과법, 생물살수여과법, 생물세정법 세가지 방법이 널리 이용되고 있다. 이들 방법중 생물여과법이 가장 많이 이용되고 있으나 실제 적용에 있어 여러 제약이 있어 이를 해결하기 위한 생물학적 방법들에 대한 연구가 수년 전부터 수행되어 왔다. 생물살수여과법은 생물여과법에 비해 다소 복잡하나 난분해성 물질이나 분해과정에서 산이 생성되는 경우 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 대기오염제어를 위한 생물여과법, 생물살수여과법, 생물세정법의 기본원리와 이론 및 실용적 내용을 다루었다. 특히 생물학적 방법들의 운전 인자와 성능에 미치는 영향인자 및 비용평가 등에 대해 조사 분석하였으며, 생물살수여과법에 대해서는 좀 더 집중적으로 고찰하였다.

  • Pocheon is a basin geographically, and the diffusion of air pollutants is very difficult. Thus, it is essential to consider the characteristics of geographical and weather conditions before industrial complex and various air pollution sources are developed in the area. It is recommended that Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) must be carried out before any action is taken. Constantly occurring fog in the Pocheon area absorbs large amounts of acidic gases, and it transformed into the secondary pollutants such as the salts of sulfate and nitrate. Fog, which occurs very often in Pocheon area, was analyzed for its acid components. Conversion from the gaseous sulfur dioxide into sulfate ion is relatively high, $86\~90\%$ while $68\~76\%$ of NOx is converted into nitrate ion form.

  • The influence of transportation on air quality has been elevating in urban area. Air pollutants from automobiles cause primary and secondary air pollution, and need to be tightly controlled. In this study, the effect of automobile air pollutants on highway vicinity area was evaluated by the comparison of field measurement. and target was for modeling using CALINE3, NO2 was the target for this work. It was found that the concentration predicted by CALINE3 is overestimated at low wind speed and input data of wind speed requires correction. Based on the measured data, the wind speed was modified by effective wind speed equation [Ue=U+0.24·EXP(-pxU)], and there after the accuracy of CALINE3 calculation was improved neighborhood area of highway. It was also observed that weather conditions and traffic volume affect the concentration of air pollution. Finally, the NO2 effect of automobile air pollutants on the vicinity area of highway proved to be up to 400∼600m from the highway.

  • Air pollution trends in Japan between 1970 and 2012 were analyzed, and the impact of air pollution countermeasures was evaluated. Concentrations of CO decreased from 1970 to 2012, and in 2012, the Japanese environmental quality standard (EQS) for CO was satisfied. Concentrations of $SO_2$ dropped markedly in the 1970s, owing to use of desulfurization technologies and low-sulfur heavy oil. Major reductions in the sulfur content of diesel fuel in the 1990s resulted in further decreases of $SO_2$ levels. In 2012, the EQS for $SO_2$ was satisfied at most air quality monitoring stations. Concentrations of $NO_2$ decreased from 1970 to 1985, but increased from 1985 to 1995. After 1995, $NO_2$ concentrations decreased, especially after 2006. In 2012, the EQS for $NO_2$ was satisfied at most air quality monitoring stations, except those alongside roads. The annual mean for the daily maximum concentrations of photochemical oxidants (OX) increased from 1980 to 2010, but after 2006, the $98^{th}$ percentile values of the OX concentrations decreased. In 2012, the EQS for OX was not satisfied at most air quality monitoring stations. Non-methane hydrocarbon (NMHC) concentrations generally decreased from 1976 to 2012. In 2011, NMHC concentrations near roads and in the general environment were nearly the same. The concentration of suspended particulate matter (SPM) generally decreased. In 2011, the EQS for SPM was satisfied at 69.2% of ambient air monitoring stations, and 72.9% of roadside air-monitoring stations. Impacts from mineral dust from continental Asia were especially pronounced in the western part of Japan in spring, and year-round variation was large. The concentration of $PM_{2.5}$ generally decreased, but the EQS for $PM_{2.5}$ is still not satisfied. The air pollution trends were closely synchronized with promulgation of regulations designed to limit pollutant emissions. Trans-boundary OX and $PM_{2.5}$ has become a big issue which contains global warming chemical species such as ozone and black carbon (so called SLCP: Short Lived Climate Pollutants). Cobeneficial reduction approach for these pollutants will be important to improve both in regional and global atmospheric environmental conditions.

  • Recently, because of the worse of the air pollution, the excessive airtught of building and the inferiority of air conditioning system, the development of high efficiency air purification technology was enlarged to the environmental improvement of an indoor or a harmful working condition. The air purification technology has used chemical filters or charcoal filters or charcoal to remove hazardouse gaseous pollutants (SO$_{x}$, NO$_{x}$, NH$_{3}$, etc.) by air pollutant control technology, but they have many problems of high pressure loss, short life, wide space possession, and treatment of secondary wastes. For these reason, the object of reasearch shall be hazardous gaseous pollutants removal by the surface discharge induced plasma chemical process that is A.C. discharge of multistreams applied A.C. voltage and frequency between plane induced eletrode and line discharge eletrode of tungsten, platinum or titanium with a high purified alumina sheet having a film-like plane. As a result, the control performance for hazardous gaseous pollutants showed very high efficiency in the normal temperature and pressure. Also, after comtact oxidation decomposition of harmful gaseous pollutants, the remainded ozone concentration was found much lower than that of ACGIH or air pollution criteria in Korea.rea.
