In this study, the experiment to confirm the risks of particulate material was carried out as a precedent study for developing the toxicity evaluation method of combustion products including the toxicity of particulate material. In the experiment, the test result of filtering and exposing particulate material among combustion products and that of exposing combustion products including particulate material were compared and analyzed by analyzing changes in average movement stop time according to the installation of Membrane filter between the stirring box and test box through the gas toxicity test of the same specimen to filter particulate material among combustion products. As the test result, in case of installing a filter, the average movement stop time of an experimental rat increased by up to 264% in case of lumber specimen and up to 179% in case of urethane specimen. Through such result, the necessity of identifying the toxicity of particulate material and carrying out quantitative toxicity test for particulate material was confirmed.

대기중에 존재하는 입자상물질은 광범위한 입경역에 걸쳐서 다종다양한 미량화학성분으로 구성되는 분산체이고, 그 성상은 공간적으로도 시간적으로도 크게 변동한다. 입자상 물질의 화학분석법은 발생원 동정을 위한 자료로 적합하며 일반적으로는 습식의 파괴적인 원소분석으로 하는 경우가 많다. 일반적으로 화학적 분석법은 개별입자의 정보가 무시되며 필터에 포집된 bulk 시료에 의한 분석이 진행되므로 장시간 포집에 의한 단시간의 시간변동과 개개의 입자가 가지는 정보가 무시되고 평균화 되어버린다. (중략)

입자상 물질을 제거하기 위한 수단으로는 싸이클론, 필터, 전기집진기, 세정탑 등이 있다. 이중에 세정탑은 설치 및 운전이 편리한 반면, 미세 입자 제거 효율이 낮아 산업체에서 제한적으로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 결점, 즉 미세 입자의 제거 효율을 높이기 위해 다양한 형태의 세정탑이 연구되었으나(Laitinen et al., 1997; Fan et al., 1988), 대부분 실험적인 연구로서 세정탑에서 입자의 제거 기작이나 크기 분포 특성을 설명하지는 못한다. (중략)

각종 배출원에서 배출된 입자상 물질은 대기 중 확산, 이동, 침착 등을 통해 국지적 도시오염 뿐만 아니라 장거리까지도 이동함으로서 광역적 대기오염의 원인이 되고 있는 등 입자상 물질의 발생원 추적에 관한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 지금까지 입자상 물질의 발생원 추적은 대부분 배출원의 발생량 조사나 필터에 포집된 시료의 전체적인 화학적 분석의 개념으로 단시간의 시간변동과 개개의 입자가 가지는 정보가 무시되고 평균화되고 있다. (중략)

The technique for calibrating standard particles larger than 1 $\mu$m by using an optical array sizing method has been established. The system consists of an optical microscope with transmission light source, a CCD camera, and a computer equipped with a frame grabber. The center distance between two spheres located at both ends of a row which consists of N spheres is measured in terms of pixel numbers, and divided by (N-1) to obtain the average pixel numbers per particle. This value is multiplied by length conversion constant, which has been determined in advance, to obtain the mean diameter of polystylene spheres. The length conversion constant is found from the microscopic image of calibrated standard stage micrometer plate. In order to reduce error in finding center positions of the scale and particles in the image, a software filter which dilates bright (or dark) object has been used. Spheres having nominal size of 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10$\mu$m were measured, and the maximum deviation of the measured mean diameter valus from their certified values was 0.7%. Standard particles which is larger than 1 $\mu$m can be calibrated by this method with measuredment uncertainy (k=2) lees than 1.53%.

The removal of radioactive corrosion products from the reactor coolant through a magnetic filter system is one of the many approaches being investigated as a means to reduce radiation sources and exposures to the operational and maintenance personnel in a nuclear power plant. Many research activities in water chemistry, therefore, have been performed to provide a filtration system with high reliability and feasibility and are still in process. In this study, it was devised the magnetic filter system with permanent and electric magnets to remove the corrosion products in the coolant stream taking an advantage of the magnetic properties of corrosion particles. Permanent magnets were used for separation of corrosion products and electric magnets were utilized for flocculation of colloidal particles to increase in their size. Experiments using only permanent magnets, in the previous study, displayed the satisfactory outcome of filtering corrosion products and indicated that the removal efficiency was more than 90 $\%$ for above 5 $\mu$m particles. Experiments using electric magnets also showed the good performance of flocculation without chemical agents and exhibited that most corrosion particles were flocculated into larger aggregates about 5 $\mu$m and over in diameter. It is, thus, expected that the magnetic filter system with the arrangement of permanent and electric magnets will be an effective way for the removal of radioactive corrosion products with considerably high removal efficiency.

This study was conducted to compare the particulate removal efficiency of the developed diesel particulate filter using various measurement methods in a high-speed marine diesel engine. A four-stroke mechanical marine diesel engine is used for the test, which has a maximum output of 403 kW and is coupled to an AC dynamometer to control engine speed and load. The test was conducted based on four steady-state engine operating conditions of E3 engine test cycle for the measurement of PM and soot removal efficiency using partial dilution method considered as gravimetric method and filter smoke number method as light absorption method, respectively. As a result of the removal efficiency measurement according to the application of diesel particulate filter, particulate matter was reduced from 76% to 91% and the soot was reduced by more than 90% while meeting the permissible engine back pressure. From these results, the applicability of diesel particulate filter adopted in high-speed marine diesel engines could be confirmed. In addition, based on the result that the particulate removal efficiency varies with different measurement methods, the necessity of unification of these methods could be identified.
