Abstract

Recently, indoor air quality (IAQ) in workplace, residence, and schools has been one of the major concernsof people, scientists and the related public. This study was performed to investigate the characteristics ofindoor air quality(IAQ) in kindergartens, elementary school, middle schools, and high schools from June 2004to May 2005 in Korea. We measured indoor air pollutants such as PM10, CO2, formaldehyde, total bacteriacolony(TBC), CO, radon, total volatile organic compounds(TVOCs), asbestos, and O3 from school classrooms.The subjects were classified by building year based on the time span of 1, 1 - 3, 3 - 5, and 5 - 10 years. Thelevels of pollutants and physical factor in schools were compared with standards and guidelines of indoor airquality on the Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and the Ministry of Education, andHuman Resources Development of Korea. The major results obtained from this study can be summarized asfollows. Asbestos and O3 were not detected in all surveyed classrooms. However, we were able to detectCO, TBC, TVOCs, and formaldehyde in kindergartens, TBC in elementary schools, TBC, TVOCs andformaldehyde in middle schools, and formaldehyde in high schools. This study was conducted to provide abasis for the management IAQ in school. Therefore, we suggest that a national plan for the management ofIAQ in school should be established through a long-term, continuous investigation for the proper assessmentof IAQ in school and for the health risk assessment for student.
