There are high chimneys in the power plants, incinerators, and manufacturing factories. (B) the exit of air pollutants from industrial activities; It can not be spoiled, however. Contaminants coming out of the factory are regulated because they make fine dust from the sky. The government monitors 24 hours after installing a tele-monitoring system (TMS) in the chimney. And whether it meets the emission allowance criteria for each substance. There are 7 measurement items. Dust, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen chloride (HCI), hydrogen fluoride (HF) and ammonia (NH3).

Seoul, Incheon, Gyeonggi, Sejong, Chungnam, and Chungbuk were exposed to a series of emergency emergency measures for one week from March 1 to 7, when high concentrations of fine dust hit the country. The worst came after the fine dust forecast and emergency mitigation measures were implemented. The blue sky and the sun were lost to the gray fine dust. The citizens who covered their masks had to fall in fear and anxiety.

Remote monitoring devices are installed at 635 locations nationwide by 2017. A remote monitoring system installed on the chimney of a large workplace measures the pollutant emission in real time and sends it to the environmental control center. I received materials from the Ministry of Environment from March 1 to 6. I was wondering if I was able to keep the emissions allowance. The result was disappointing and surprising. Of the total TMS sites, 152 sites, or 24% of the total TMS sites, did not meet emissions limits. The number of overdrafts was 713 in 6 days. By industry, the incineration facilities were violating 413 times in 95 companies, followed by the violation of 114 times in 19 companies in the paper products manufacturing industry. Electricity gas company, which is a power generation facility, also showed over 79 cases in 12 business sites. Among the power plants included one of the participants in the fine dust emergency reduction measure. He said that it would operate 20% lower than normal and would discharge pollutants beyond the emission limit. Nonmetallic minerals manufacturing cement are no exception. Nine companies exceeded 48 times.

Among the pollutants, the most frequently over-discharged is CO, or carbon monoxide. Over 70% of the 713 overdrafts. It comes mainly from the incineration process at the incinerator. Park Jung-min, a researcher at the National Institute of Environmental Research, said, "The high amount of carbon monoxide can increase the concentration of hydrocarbons among the precursors that make fine dust."

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx) from power plants were emitted 85 times and 41 times, respectively, exceeding emission limits. These are ultrafine dust-causing substances, which are known to turn into nitrates and sulphates in the air and threaten their health. The amount of excess hydrogen chloride (HCl) and total dust (TSP) emissions was 43 and 19, respectively. There are 135 violations in the top four industries, including incineration facilities, paper product manufacturing, electric gas boilers and non-metallic minerals. Accounting for 90% of all violations. By region, Gyeonggi Province had the largest number of 28 companies, followed by Gyeongnam, Gyeongbuk and Jeonbuk with 14 companies each. Chungnam and Chungbuk violations were followed by 12 companies, followed by Incheon 8, Ulsan 7 and Gangwon 6.

Emergency abatement measures were issued every day from March 1 to June 6, and the number of violations of emission allowance criteria was 5 days. Even though the people's anxiety is getting bigger, the number of violations is 162 times. It has been reported that it has exceeded 126 times on the first day, 114 times on the second day, 113 times on the third day, 93 times on the fourth day and 105 times on the sixth day.

The Ministry of Environment analyzed that as of January 1, the emission allowance standards of large-scale emitters, such as the TMS plant, seem to have been affected. However, substances with enhanced emission standards are NOx, SOx and TSP. It was applied only to coal-fired power plants and oil refineries. In the case of cement companies, it was decided to apply the revised emission allowance standards from the second half of the year in order to strengthen the pollution prevention facilities. Incineration facilities are also subject to enhanced emission limits from 2020. Large emission plants do not comply with the emission allowance standards because the charge rate is low and the punishment regulations are loose. The moral hazard that neglects the fine dust of the people is also contributing. When discharging SOx or dust causing fine dust to the allowable standard value, it is obliged to pay the basic levy. By 20 years ago, dust was 770 won per kilogram and SOx 500 won. In the case of NOx, they have been excluded from the charges. At the end of last year, due to the amendment of the Enforcement Decree of the Air Quality Preservation Act, the levy will be delayed from January 1, The unit price per kg is 2,130 won. SOx and dust charges will also be revised by the end of this year to raise unit prices. It is the object of administrative disposition that it should violate emission allowance standard three consecutive times or violate more than eight times a week.

The 635 remote monitoring (TMS) sites in Korea are only 10% of the large-scale first and third-generation sites, but they account for 80% of the total amount of pollutants. This is why you should feel responsible for the fine dust and air quality.

The emission allowance standards are to be observed. It is a guideline for industrial activities for fine dust prevention and clean air. You have to fulfill your responsibilities from the big business so that the people can breathe freely and see the blue sky.
