In this study, a fundamental work for developing a biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds(BVOC) emission model in Korea has been carried out. Two different approaches, Biogenic Emission Inventory System(BEIS2) and CORINAIR Methodology(CORINAIR) were compared for estimating BVOC emissions. It was found that BEIS and CORINAIR showed very similar results each other BVOC emissions estimated by two different methods were about the same on a national and regional(provincial) scale. In case of monthly emissions the difference between BEIS and CORINAIR were larger than those on a national and regional(provincial) scale, especially in summer season(June, July and August). Although BEIS and CORINAIR are quite different techniques to correct the environmental conditions, they revealed similar results. Therefore, it is proven that both the methods are able to be applied to the estimation of the BVOC emissions in Korea.

BEIS2 (Biogenic Emissions Inventory System version 2) and BEIS3.12 (BEIS version 3.12) were used to estimate hourly biogenic emissions over South Korea using a set of vegetation and meteorological data simulated with the MM5 (Mesoscale Model version 5). Two biogenic emission models utilized different emission factors and showed different responses to solar radiations, resulting in about $10{\sim}20%$ difference in the nationwide isoprene emission estimates. Among the 11-vegetation classes, it was found that mixed forest and deciduous forest are the most important vegetation classes producing isoprene emissions over South Korea comprising ${\sim}90%$ of the total. The simulated isoprene concentrations over Seoul metropolitan area show that diurnal and daily variations match relatively well with the PAMS (Photochemical Air Monitoring Station) measurements during the period of June 3${\sim}$June 10, 2004. Compared to BEIS2, BEIS3.12 yielded ${\sim}35%$ higher isoprene concentrations during daytime and presented better matches to the high peaks observed over the Seoul area. This study showed that the importance of vegetation data and emission factors to estimate biogenic emissions. Thus, it is expected to improve domestic vegetation categories and emission factors in order to better represent biogenic emissions over South Korea.

지난 20여년동안 정부에서 다양한 대기오염관리 정책을 시행한 결과 먼지, 이산화황 등의 오염도는 상당히 감소하였으나, 오존의 경우에는 아직도 오염도가 개선되지 않고 있다. 오존오염도를 개선하기 위해서는 먼저 전구물질인 질소산화물과 VOCs에 대한 배출현황이 파악되어야 하는데, 우리나라의 경우 아직 배출분야의 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 특히 VOCs의 경우, 외국의 선행연구에 의하면 인위적인 배출원 뿐만 아니라 식생에 의해서도 많은 양이 배출되는 것으로 알려져 있다. (중략)

Biological exposure indices (BEI) of toluene, perchloroethylene (PCE) and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) for Korean workers were studied respectively. Environmental exposures in workplace to organic solvent were measured by personal sampling. Blood toluene, blood perchloroethylene, urinary trichloroacetic acid and urinary MEK were determined by headspace gas chromatography. Urinary hippuric acid were determined by HPLC and corrected by creatinine. BEIs for Korean workers were calculated as the levels of determinants which are correspond to permissible exposure limits in Korea. Blood toluene level of 2.2mg/l and urinary hippuric acid level of 1.7g/g creatinine are correspond to an exposure of 100 ppm toluene. Blood PCE concentration of 1.6mg/l and urinary trichloroacetic acid concentration of 2.9mg/l are correspond to an exposure of 50ppm PCE. Urinary MEK concentration of 1.0mg/l is correspond to an exposure of 200ppm of MEK. BEIs for Korean workers determined in this study are very different to ACGIH's BEI as urinary determinants are much lower and blood determinants are much higher than ACGIH's BEI.

The estimation of a biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC, especially isoprene) and the influence of isoprene emissions on ozone concentrations in the Greater Busan Area (GBA) were carried out based on a numerical modeling approach during a high ozone episode. The BVOC emissions were estimated using a biogenic emission information system (BEIS v3.14) with vegetation data provided by the forest geographical information system (FGIS), land use data provided by the environmental geographical information system (EGIS), and meteorological data simulated by the MM5. Ozone simulation was performed by two sets of simulation scenarios: (1) without (CASE1) and (2) with isoprene emissions (CASE2). The isoprene emission (82 ton $day^{-1}$) in the GBA was estimated to be the most dominant BVOC followed by methanol (56) and carbon monoxide (28). Largest impacts of isoprene emissions on the ozone concentrations (CASE2-CASE1) were predicted to be about 4 ppb in inland locations where a high isoprene was emitted and to be about 2 ppb in the downwind and/or convergence regions of wind due to both the photochemical reaction of ozone precursors (e.g., high isoprene emissions) and meteorological conditions (e.g., local transport).

펜타클로로페놀의 현재 직업적 노출기준은 $0.5\;mg/m^3$(TLV-TWA)으로 권고하고 있다. 이 수치는 눈, 점막과 상기도의 염증과 발한, 열, 위장 불만, 시각 장해, 중추 신경계와 심혈관계 장해를 유발할 수 있는 급성 독성의 가능성을 최소로 하는 것을 목적으로 설정하였다. Chloracne는 공업용 펜타클로로페놀을 사용하거나 펜타클로로페놀을 생산하는 근로자들에 대해서 보고하였다. 펜타클로로페놀은 피부를 통해서 즉시 흡수되는데, 이 물질의 조직 독성은 펜타클로로페놀을 포함한 용액이나 펜타클로로페놀로 오염된 의류와 접촉된 사람에게서 보고되었다. 따라서 피부경고주석은 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 펜타클로로페놀의 발암성 잠재력에 대한 명확한 증거는 간세포성과 신장에 가까운 신생물이 관찰된 설치류 생물 검정에서 발견되었다. 그러므로 본 물질은 인간에게 불명확한 관련성을 가진 동물성 발암물질(A3)로 설정하였다. 충분한 자료가 확보되지 않아 감작성 (SEN) 경고주석 또는 TLV-STEL은 권고되지 않았다. 펜타클로로페놀은 생물학적 노출지수(BEIs)가 권고된 물질이다.
