도로에서의 비산먼지는 건설현장 트럭에 의한 토사의 유입, 운반 중에 날리는 토사, 토양의 침식, 겨울철 모래살포, 타이어의 마모등에 의하여 도로표면에 쌓인 먼지가 차량의 운행이나 바람으로 인하여 발생한다 국내 주요도시 및 산업단지는 대부분이 포장도로로서 주변환경에서 유입되는 먼지와 함께 차량의 운행으로 인한 비산먼지(Fugitive dust)의 영향이 지대하며, 건설현장에서 발생되는 비산먼지와 함께 도시ㆍ산단지역의 미세먼지 배출량에 큰 기여를 하는 것으로 조사되었다. (중략)

In this study, the concentration of fine indoor dust and the size distribution of fine indoor dust were analyzed by measuring the dust generated during the cleaning process of an indoor office. We measured $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$, and $PM_{1.0}$ and analyzed the size distributions of dust larger than $0.3{\mu}m$ in diameter during cleaning. The results showed that the concentration of $PM_{10}$ increased rapidly during cleaning, however $PM_{1.0}$ did not increase. Before cleaning with a broom, the fine dust concentration was about $50{\mu}g/m^3$, but increased to about $400{\mu}g/m^3$ as cleaning progressed. In the case of indoor cleaning with a vacuum cleaner, the concentration of $PM_{10}$ increased during the cleaning process and the increase of $PM_{2.5}$ was relatively small. $PM_{1.0}$ did not increase as in the case of cleaning the broom.

This study analyzed the influence of domestic and Chinese factors on fine dust(PM10 & PM2.5) in Korea by using the panel quantile regression. Daily analysis was conducted for 11 regions in Korea. For domestic factors, electricity demand and traffic volume, and for Chinese factors, interaction term of Chinese three cities' fine dust and the domestic west wind are used. As a result, the influence of domestic factors was different when the domestic fine dust concentration was high and low. When the fine dust concentration was low, electricity demand had a positive effect only on PM2.5, and didn't affect PM10 in the national analysis. In regional analysis, the amount of electricity demand had a significant effect on fine dust and ultrafine dust only in the capital area and Chungcheong. Electricity demand was found to significantly increase both PM2.5 and PM10 when it was high. On the other hand, it was confirmed that the Chinese factor always had a significant effect regardless of the concentration of PM10 and PM2.5. Therefore, in order to solve the problem of high concentration of fine dust, in addition to international cooperation, the reduction of PM2.5 generated by domestic thermal power generation should also be strengthened compared to the present.

인체의 미세먼지 노출에 의한 연구가 활발히 진행되면서 미세먼지와 건강 영향에 대한 인과 관계가 입증되고 있다. 미세먼지는 기침, 재채기, 심혈관 질환, 폐암 등 가벼운 증상부터 심각한 질병까지 인체의 건강에 다양하게 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 미세먼지는 2000 년 초부터 꾸준히 높은 농도를 보여왔지만, 사람들이 실제로 미세먼지를 위험 물질로 인식하기 시작한 것은 10 년이 채 되지 않았다. 이에 본 논문은 실외 미세먼지에 대한 정보 제공뿐만 아니라 사용자가 실제로 위치한 실내 미세먼지 농도까지 함께 제공하여 미세먼지에 관한 관심을 증가시키고자 한다.

Fugitive dust, which accounts more than 50% of fine dust, is an air pollutant, that is generated by a lot in construction work(29.5%) and the law provides standards for facility installation and measures to control this. However, small-scale construction sites are not subject to management standards, and the law to measure and manage fugitive dust generated from construction sites is insufficient. In this paper, we designed and implemented the method to easily measure and monitor fugitive dust using the digital optical method for turbidity of dust. We presented the method to measure the turbidity of fugitive dust using the digital optical method and measured the actual turbidity of fugitive dust at the construction sites after implementing the fugitive dust measurement system.

A recent issue of fine dust is particulate matter with a diameter of less than $10{\mu}g/m^3$. It's classified as a pollutant that has a fatal effect on the human body when inhaled. The fugitive dust must be well controlled, since the adverse effects of dust on the surroundings are increased when the dust is blown away by the wind. Since the construction site is the place where the most fugitive dust is discharged in Korea, managing the fugitive dust discharged from the construction site can be an important issue to solve the problem of domestic fine dust. However, since the construction industry in Korea is the largest in Korea, it is difficult to control the emission of fugitive dust in the domestic construction site. In this paper, we compare and analyze the fugitive dust regulations applied to construction sites in major cities and propose the improvement plans to help control the fugitive dust generated in domestic construction sites.

Air pollution, which is a class 1 carcinogen, such as asbestos and benzene, is the cause of various diseases. The spread of ultra-air pollution is one of the important causes of the spread of the corona virus. This paper analyzes and predicts fine dust and ultra-air pollution from 2015 to 2019 based on weather data such as average temperature, precipitation, and average wind speed in Seoul and atmospheric environment data such as SO2, NO2, and O3. Linear regression, SVM, and ensemble models among machine learning models were compared and analyzed to predict fine dust by grasping and analyzing the status of air pollution and ultra-air pollution by season and month. In addition, important features(attributes) that affect the generation of fine dust and ultra-air pollution are identified. The highest ultra-air pollution was found in March, and the lowest ultra-air pollution was observed from August to September. In the case of meteorological data, the data that has the most influence on ultra-air pollution is average temperature, and in the case of meteorological data and atmospheric environment data, NO2 has the greatest effect on ultra-air pollution generation.

Particulate matter(PM) is one of the leading causes of lung cancer. Recognizing its considerable risk to human health, people change their behaviors when a concentration level of PM is high. The impact of particulate matter on urban activities may vary depending on the lasting days of PM and PM matter alerts. In addition, the level of averting behavior may vary depending on the types and physical characteristics of urban activities and the degree of vulnerability to PM among people. Although the way people respond to PM may vary depending on these various factors, previous research evidence on this is very insufficient. Therefore, this study multilaterally analyzed the impact of PM on the urban activities in Jongno-gu, one of the CBD areas of Seoul. For this, we linked SKT's mobile phone signal data to land use data to extract the daily number of active people by urban activity types and ages. According to multiple regression analysis, the averting behavior varies depending on the type of urban activity, the physical characteristics of the place of activity(inside and outdoor), the lasting days of PM, PM alerts and the age of people. The results of this study can be used as basic data to policy makers who establish policies for adapting to air pollution policies by providing various effects of PM on the urban activities.

Conventional visualization of PM (Particulate Matter)10 flows applies superimposition of concentration distribution maps and wind field maps. This method is efficient for small scale maps where only macro flow trends are of interest. However, in the case of urban areas, local flows are difficult to model at micro level using wind fields, and therefore different methods of flow extraction is deemed necessary. In this study, flow information is extracted and visualized directly from the PM10 density data by using the gravity model. This method has the advantage that additional information such as wind field is not necessary for estimating the intensity and direction of PM10 flow. The extracted spatio-temporal flow patterns of PM10 are analyzed with relation to traffic information.

Various aspects of air quality problems caused by aerosols in Seoul are discussed. Based on the measurement data, it was found that the general air quality in Seoul has improved during last twenty years. However, PM10 concentration in Seoul is still higher than other cities in Korea and worldwide. At Seoul, it was suggested that secondary aerosols are as important as aerosols directly emitted in Seoul or transported from outside.
