Ⅰ. Background and Objective
1. Background
o Objective of Research
ㅇ Objective
- Meaning of ‘integrated management’ of particulate matter
o ‘Integrated management’ of particulate matter refers to a ‘horizontal’ integration management strategy that manages all related elements (sectors) within a consistent system for the purpose of reducing national particulate matter.
※This refers to a study that supports comprehensive management measures for multidimensional solutions such as pollution source emission management, regional management, communication, and governance across various sectors.
※However, based on the current trend, this should be scaled up into an integrated study at a multidisciplinary level in the future, with fields dealing with carbon neutrality policies, health effects, and so on.
- The purpose of this study is to understand what is needed to support the current national and regional particulate matter management policy from an integrated perspective encompassing various sectors with the theme of “particulate matter management” and to propose and support implementation of comprehensive particulate matter management policies that take into account the emission sources, substance, and regional social costs. (Five-year research, currently in the fourth year)
o Current status of domestic particulate matter
ㅇ The current situation and reality of Particulate Matter in 2021
- In 2020, the annual average concentration of ultrafine dust in Korea was 19μg/m3, which is a significantly improved figure compared to 23μg/m3 in 2019. As this trend continued in 2021, it
