The children of daycare center are sensitive to indoor environmental pollution. This study was a preliminary investigation for improving the environmental and healthy quality of daycare centers. The sampling of sites in daycare centers was undertaken three times such as day-morning (10:00-12:00), afternoon (16:00-20:00), following dawn (04:00-08:00)-at 21 daycare centers located in Seoul, Korea from April, 2012 to July, 2012. The mean concentrations of TVOC were 255.2, 217.0, and 439.4 μg/m3 at morning, afternoon, and following dawn, respectively. The daycare center indoor/outdoor ratios on the most targeted volatile organic compounds were above 1.0 except that for carbon tetrachloride, which was almost 1.0. Significant correlations (p<0.01) were observed between indoor and outdoor carbon tetrachloride, which implies that indoor carbon tetrachloride could be largely accounted for by outdoor sources. The other targeted indoor volatile organic compounds such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, styrene, xylenes, chloroform showed no significant correlations with that of outdoor.

다성분계 휘발성 유기화합물(VOCs; Volatile Organic Compounds)의 분리를 위하여 상전이법을 이용하여 방사 한 poly (ether imide) (PEI) 중공사 지지체에 poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)를 코팅하여 중공사 복합막을 제조하였다. VOCs 회수용 중공사막으로서 적합성을 알아보기 위해서 중공사막의 모폴로지, 질소 및 산소 기체 투과도를 측정하고, 벤젠, 톨루엔 그리고 자일렌에 대한 내구성을 조사하였다. 다성분계 휘발성 유기화합물의 효과적인 분리성능을 조사하기 위하여 Stage-cut과 feed 농도에 따른 다성분계 VOCs 투과 성능 변화를 관찰하였다. PEI 지지체 중공사막에 PDMS를 코팅시킴 에 따라 산소와 질소 투과도는 각각 45,000 GPU와 49,450 GPU에서 63 GPU와 30 GPU로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. VOCs 투과농도는 Stage-cut이 감소함에 따라 증가하나, 회수율은 감소하였다. 반면에 공급농도 증가에 따라 투과농도는 비례적으로 증가하였지만, 농축비나 회수율은 큰 변화가 없었다.

도장공정에서 발생되는 휘발성 유기화합물의 회수를 위하여 중공사 분리막 모듈을 이용한 공정을 준비하여, 공급 압력과 시간변화에 따른 휘발성 유기화합물의 회수에 대한 특성평가를 실시하였다. 중공사 분리막 모듈을 도장공정에 직접 적용한 결과, 투과된 휘발성 유기화합물의 농도는 투과시간과 압력의 증가됨에 따라 증가되었으며, 단일공정보다 다단공정이 더 우수한 분리성능을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.

A bake-out process using auto switchgear was carried out to evaluate the reduction effect of the concentration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde in newly-built apartments for seven days. The reduction rate of VOCs was observed as followings: 19%, 38%, 89%, 90%, and 96% for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, and styrene, respectively, which satisfies at the indoor air quality standards of newly-built apartment houses in Korea. The reduction rate of formaldehyde was 75%. Those results proved that the bake-out process using auto switchgear was effective for reducing indoor air pollutants.

There has been a growing concern about the emissions of formaldehyde and VOCs from automotive interior materials which could have an important impact on the in-vehicle air quality(IVAQ) of automotive vehicles. Many leading automobile manufacturers have now introduced their own specification standards for testing and limiting emissions from products produced by their suppliers. In addition, ISO (International Standard Organization) has been established ISO 12219-1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to determine the emissions of volatile organic compounds from automotive vehicle. The objective of this paper is to compare the area specific emission rates determined from surface emissions testing using the microchamber(MC) in comparison with a 1 m³ emission test chamber(ETC) operated in accordance with ISO 12219-3, ISO 12219-4. Measured emission concentrations in absolute terms were different between Microchamber and 1 m³ chamber. However, qualitative comparison of the chromatograms shows that the Microchamber is able to perform a screening test

Low temperature desorption of the used activated carbons that contain VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) produced from Shiwha/Banwal industrial complex were investigated. Iodine number and BET specific surface area of the activated carbons manufactured by N company in China were measured to see their characteristics prior to use in the experiment. Activated carbons were used to adsorb VOCs in a company of Shiwha/Banwal complex. Used activated carbons were collected and desorbed by the desorbing facility. After 1st adsorption and 1st desorption samples were taken for analysis. Desorbed activated carbons were reused in the same company. After 2nd adsorption and 2nd desorption samples were taken again for analysis. 4 samples were analyzed by TGA (Thermogravimetric Analyzer) at 170℃ with a heating rate of 10℃/min. Also, activation energies and reaction orders of desorption reaction were assessed by employing Friedman method and Freeman-Carroll method. The activation energies were 16.86kJ/mol by Friedman method and reaction orders were 0.36∼5.16 by Freeman-Carroll method.

This study presents residential indoor and outdoor exposure concentrations distributions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs, benzene, toluene, xylene) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) in industrial area (case) and agricultural area (control) during 5 days. Concentrations of VOCs and NO₂ were measured with passive samplers in residential indoor and outdoor. Most of benzene, toluene and NO₂ mean concentrations in case area were higher than those in control area. Considering the indoor and outdoor ratios (I/O) were higher than 1, the residence might be have the sources of indoor air pollutants such as smoking and using of gas range. Residential indoor concentrations of benzene, toluene, and NO₂ with indoor smokers were higher than those and without indoor smokers. In conclusion, it is suggested that personal exposures to air pollutants might be affected by indoor sources as well as outdoor pollutants emitted from industrial complex, and indoor air quality and outdoor air quality should be simultaneously considered to reduce the personal exposure to air pollutants.

Studies on the indoor air quality inside newly producted vehicle have made mainly mention of the concentrations for indoor air pollutants or of subjective symptoms, such as irritated eyes and nose, headache and dizziness. That is, there has been no report about how poor indoor air quality inside newly producted vehicle affects vehicle drivers. We measured the indoor air pollutants inside newly producted vehicle and evaluated the neurobehavioral performance of drivers, using a computerized neurobehavioral test (color word vigilance), between a newly producted and a 11-year-old vehicle. Inside the newly producted vehicle, the formaldehyde concentration with closed window was 19.1㎍/m³. The concentration of VOCs with closed window was 3.9㎍/m³ for benzene, 316.7㎍/m³ for toluene, 20.5㎍/m³ for ethylbenzene, 47.7㎍/m³ for m,p-xylene, 15.1㎍/m³ for o-xylene, and 15.3㎍/m³ for styrene. The neurobehavioral performance of drivers inside newly producted vehicle with the computerized neurobehavioral test was 11.05% lower than that for those inside 11-year-old control vehicle. These results suggest that the poor indoor air quality inside newly producted vehicle affects the neurobehavioral performance of driver and a proper evaluation of the indoor air quality inside newly producted vehicle is required into the health effects of pollutants with objective tool, in addition to the level of pollution.
