There have been persistent civil appeals in Ansan area against the odor and aerosols emitted from nearby Banwol/Sihwa industrial complex. A fundamental solution for the good air quality has not been addressed yet in spite of the continuous counterplan to reduce odor emission. A systematic and scientific study is needed to examine the reason for the odor episode and to predict the impact coverage of odor pollution. An approach by computational simulation is considered to be adequate to investigate the transportation and the dispersion processes of air pollutants blown by sea breeze toward the coastal city, Ansan. This study has employed various dispersion models to simulate the transportation and the dispersion processes of odor pollutants by a local circulation between land/sea breeze using the data set of emission rates of odorous species from the Banwol/Sihwa industrial complex.

복잡한 구조를 갖고 시간에 따라서 변하는 바람장내에서 공장굴뚝과 같은 점오염원에서 배출되는 오염물질의 확산을 계산하기 위해서 라그란지안 입자확산모텔(Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model, LPDM)을 사용하는 것이 최근의 연구 동향이다. 구윤서(1999a, 1999b)는 중립 및 안정한 대기조건에서 바람장 계산시 비평형 2.5 난류모델을 이용한 LPDM을 개발하여 복잡한 대기흐름내 확산현상을 보다 정확히 모사할 수 있는 LPDM을 제시하였다. (중략)

Various meleorologlcal dada obtained by SODAR system in shoreline area surrounding Boryung power plant have been analysed to investigate atmospheric diffusibility. Important conclusion may be summarized as follows; (i) Stability classification scheme based on co (standard deviation of wind direction in degree for averaging time of 1 hour) appears to evaluate certain atmospheric velocity and : indicate horizontal mean wind speed. Thus different scheme for stability classification seems to be preferable in order to appropriately estimate lateral and vertical dispersion coefficients cy and cz, respectively. (ii) As a result of comparisons between 3 available schemes for estimating of mixing height, best one turned out to be the double height scheme where height corresponds to maximum cw.

The dose from a possible accident at a microwave-based spent resin mixture treatment facility that was to be installed and operated at the Wolsong nuclear power plant was analyzed to evaluate the radiological safety prior to its installation and operation. The dose to which workers and nearby residents are likely to be exposed was calculated based on the atmospheric dispersion and deposition factors using the XOQDOQ code. The highest atmospheric dispersion factors were 1.349E-05 s/m³ (workers) and 1.534E-06 s/m³ (residents). The highest doses due to emissions from the mock-up tank before operation were 1.91E-06 mSv (workers) and 1.78E-07 mSv (residents). Even after 3 h of operation, emissions from the mock-up tank had the greatest impact ranging from 4.63E-08 to 1.24E-06 mSv (workers) and 2.74E-10 to 1.16E-07 mSv (residents), respectively. The doses were 7.09E-09-4.55E-07 mSv and 4.18E-11-4.25E-08 mSv at 4-5 h of operation, and the maximum doses after operation reached 5.69E-07 mSv and 5.31E-08 mSv for the workers and residents, respectively. Even at the exclusion area boundary (EAB), 4.76E-08-9.51E-07 mSv (annual dose:9.52E-05–1.90E-03 mSv/y) was below the dose limit of the EAB, and the safety of the facility installation inside the NPP was confirmed.

The importance of atmospheric conditions for the assessment of an air pollution situation has been demonstrated by their influence on the various compartments of an air pollution system, comprising all stages from emission to effects. Especially, air pollutants dispersion phenomenon are very sensitive according to wind data. But the discussions of how to apply representative meteorological data in air pollution dispersion model are not frequent in Korean environmental assessment processes. In this study, we investigated the difference of air pollutants dispersion phenomenon using U.S EPA ISCLT3 model according to applying the different meteorological data observed at two points for Seongseo industrial complex of Daegu. Two points are the spot site of Seongseo industrial complex and Daegu meteorological observatory. The winds speed of the spot site were smaller than those of Daegu meteorological observatory. In the winter season, the differences came to about $64\%$ for the period$(I\;February\;2001\~31\;January\;2002)$. Wind directions were also fairly different at two points. The air pollutants dispersion phenomenon estimated from our numerical experiments were also fairly different owing to the meteorological conditions at two points.

To evaluate suitability of the Gaussian plume model for the small scale release of a dense toxic gas, experimental concentrations of the small scale release of chlorine were compared with theoretical concentrations calculated by the Gaussian plume model using various dispersion coefficients. As a result, Ive found that the dispersion of chlorine gas was fairly varied with dispersion coefficient and atmospheric stability and that chlorine concentrations were well estimated by the Gaussian plume model using Briggs' dispersion coefficient and the effective release hight.

This study analyzed dispersion characteristics and toxic effect in the small-scale continuous release of chlorine gas. We found that the Gaussian model using the Briggs' dispersion coefficient and the effective release height was better predicting experiments than the BM model. From chlorine concentrations calculated by Gaussian model, simulation results showed that the dispersion of chlorine was more affected by atmospheric stability and wind speed than release rate and that the toxic effect of chlorine gas was similar to the effect of parameters on chlorine dispersion. From effected areas with toxic criteria, damaged areas could be estimated to protect human.

The Gaussian models were selected as the reference models for the study. During the study of the model verification in the Ulsan Industrial Complex, the accuracy and limitation of models were assessed. The correlation coefficients of the observed and the predicted values for CDM 2.0 and TCM2B were ranged from 0.57 to 0.73 and from 0.72 to 0.86, respectively. And there were relatively large discrepancies between the predicted and predicted and the measured concentrations for several locations. Therefore, the Gaussian models should be used with careful discretion to apply the urban area in Korea.

배출된 대기오염물질은 기상조건에 따라 농도가 크게 달라질 수 있으며 이러한 현상을 규명하기 위해서는 지상 및 상층기상 관측이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 서울지역의 발생가능한 대기오염상태를 판단할 수 기법을 개발하고자 고도별자동기상관측기(SODAR/RASS)로 측정한 고도별 풍향ㆍ풍속, 기온등의 매시간 자료를 분석하였다.(중략)
