Objectives: With the growth of national interest in fine particulate matter, many complaints about pollutants emitted from air pollution emitting facilities have arisen in recent years. In particular, it is thought that a large volume of particulate pollutants are discharged from workplaces that use Solid Refuse Fuel (SRF). Therefore, particulate contaminants generated from SRF were measured and analyzed in this study in terms of respective particle sizes. Methods: In this study, particulate matter in exhaust gas was measured by applying US EPA method 201a using a cyclone. This method measures Filterable Particulate Matter (FPM), and does not consider the Condensable Particulate Matter (CPM) that forms particles in the atmosphere after being discharged as a gas in the exhaust gas. Results: The mass concentration of Total Suspended Particles (TSP) in the four SRF-using facilities was 1.16 to 11.21 mg/Sm3, indicating a very large concentration deviation of about 10 times. When the fuel input method was the continuous injection type, particulate matter larger than 10 ㎛ diameter showed the highest particle size fraction, followed by particulate matter smaller than 10 ㎛ and larger than 2.5 ㎛, and particulate matter of 2.5 ㎛ or less. Contrary to the continuous injection type, the batch injection type had the smallest particle size fraction of particulate matter larger than 10 ㎛. The overall particulate matter decreased as the operating load factor decreased from 100% to 60% at the batch input type D plant. In addition, as incomplete combustion significantly decreased, the particle size fraction also changed significantly. Both TSP and heavy metals (six items) satisfied the emissions standards. The measured value of the emission factor was 38-99% smaller than the existing emissions factor. Conclusions: In the batch injection facility, the particulate matter decreased as the operating load factor decreased, as did the particle size fraction of the particulate matter. These results will help the selection of effective methods such as reducing the operating load factor instead of adjusting the operating time during emergency reduction measures.

This study was conducted to investigate size distribution characteristics of water-soluble ionic components in the airborne particulate matter (PM) collected from an urban area in Busan using a MOUDI cascade impactor from March to October 2010. The inorganic constituents in the fine particles (${\leq}1.8{\mu}m$) predominantly consisted of sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, and potassium. Sulfate and ammonium concentrations showed a high correlation and similar equivalent concentrations in the fine modes including $0.18{\sim}0.32{\mu}m$, $0.32{\sim}0.56{\mu}m$, and $0.56{\sim}1.0{\mu}m$. This indicates that the main chemical component in the fine particles would be forms of ammonium sulfate such as $(NH_4)_3H(SO_4)_2$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, and $(NH_4)HSO_4$. Back trajectory analysis showed that relatively higher concentrations of ammonium, nitrate, and sulfate in the fine mode, compared to the coarse mode, are caused both by domestic sources and long-range transports originated from China continent. High concentration episodes of PM both in the fine mode and the coarse mode were attributed both by anthropogenic sources, such as ship emissions and traffic emissions, and by natural sources such as seawater (sea salt), respectively.

Atmospheric particulate matter (A.P.M.) was collected on quartz fiber filters from March 1985 to February 1986 at Chung-Ang University according to particle size using Andersen high-volume air smapler, and benzo (a) pyrene concentration in these particulates were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The annual arithmetic mean concentration of A.P.M. was 115.50$\mug/m^3$. The annual arithmetic mean concentrations of coarse particles and fine particles in A.P.M. were 52.54$\mum/m^3$ and 62.96$\mum/m^3$ respectively. THe annual arithmetic mean concentration of benzo(a)pyrene in A.P.M. was 1.44$ng/m^3$. THe annual arithmetic mean concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene in coarse particles and fine particles were 0.05 $ng/m^3$ and 1.39 $ng/m^3$ respectively. Thus, the concentration of benzo(a)pyrene showed maldistribution of 96.53% in fine particle. A.P.M. showed wide fluctuation according to the season. The concentration of A.P.M. was lowest in summer and high in spring and winter. Coarse and fine particle concentrations in A.P.M. were highest in spring and winter, respectively. The concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene was highest in winter and lowest in summer. The concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene in fine and coarse particles were highest in winter and spring, respectively.

[ $PM_{2.5}$ ], particulate matter less than 2.5 um in a diameter, can penetrate deeply into the lungs. Exposure to $PM_{2.5}$ has been associated with increased hospital visits for respiratory aliments as well as increase mortality. $PM_{2.5}$ is a byproduct of combustion processes and as such has a complex composition including a variety of metallic elements, inorganic and organic compounds as well as biogenic materials (microorganisms, proteins, etc). In this study, the average concentrations of fine particulates $PM_{2.5}$ have been measured simultaneously in Asan and Seoul, Korea, by using particulate matter portable sampler from September 2001 to August 2002. Sample collection filters were analyzed by ICP-OES to determine the concentrations of metallic elements (As, Ni, Fe, Cr, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Si). Annual mean $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in Asan and Seoul were 37.70 and $45.83\;{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. The highest concentrations of $PM_{2.5}$ were found in spring season in both cities and the concentrations of measured metallic elements except As in Asan were higher than those in Seoul, suggesting that yellow dust in spring could affect $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in Asan rather than Seoul. The correlation coefficients of Pb and Zn were 0.343 for Asan and 0.813 for Seoul during non-yellow dust condition, suggesting that Pb and Zn were influenced with the same sources. The correlation coefficients between Si and Fe in the fine particulate mode were 0.999 (Asan) and 0.998 (Seoul) during yellow dust condition. It was suggested that these two elements were impacted by soil-related transport from China during the yellow dust storm condition.

미세먼지발생 문제는 커다란 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있다. 선박에서는 주 추진 동력원으로 디젤엔진을 주로 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 디젤엔진에서 발생하는 미세먼지로 알려진 입자상 물질을 줄이기 위해서 디젤엔진의 후처리시스템으로 사용 중인 DPF(디젤미립자 필터, Diesel particulate filter)를 소개하고자 한다. DPF의 소재로는 Cordierite와 SiC (Silicon carbide)의 두 가지가 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 SiC DPF에 사용되는 접합제의 물성 향상을 위해서 기존 접합제로 사용된 SiC 계열의 물질 대신 코디얼라이트를 사용하여 열팽창계수 변화를 통한 고온 변형에 대한 열 내구성을 평가하였으며, 접합제와 Segment 사이의 결합을 결정짓는 바탕제에 주성분인 실리카졸의 pH 변화에 따른 물성 변화를 확인하였다. 이를 기반으로 실리카 졸의 반응성을 높이기 위해 Siline계 커플링제를 첨가하거나 SiC를 일부 첨가함으로써 접합제의 물성 변화의 영향에 대해서 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.

가정과 요식업 사업장에서 발생하는 미세먼지는 전체 미세먼지 배출량의 약 4%정도로 낮은 비율을 차지하고 있다. 하지만 요식업 사업장에서는 일시적 미세먼지 농도가 최대 60배 가까이 측정될 만큼 오염농도의 변화율이 매우 높다. 비산업 연소 사업장에서 발생하는 오염 물질은 입자상 미세먼지와 가스상 유기화합물로 구성되며, 이 오염물질을 제거하기 위해서 여러 집진원리 중 가스상 물질과 입자상 물질의 동시 제거에 효과적인 시스템인 세정집진을 적용하였다. 이는 이류체 분무 노즐을 이용한 가압수식 액체 분사 방법으로 브라운 운동의 확산 포집의 확률을 높인 방법이다. 제작된 미세먼지 제거 장치를 이용하여 노즐 분무 기압 조건과 각도 등에 따른 미세먼지 집진 시스템의 집진 효율성을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 미세먼지와 가스상 유기화합물 제거효율이 90% 이상을 만족하는 것을 확인하였다. 개발된 시스템은 기존 사업장 후드 시스템에 별도의 설치비용 없이 미세먼지 집진 제거가 가능하여 향후 높은 활용성이 기대된다.
