This project is to evaluate the influences at the surrounding areas of Ren Da Industrial Park and Linyuan Industrial Park, to choose certain areas highly influenced by these industrial parks and setup static OP-FTIR for 24 hours monitoring. These chosen monitoring stations are located at Nan-yang primary school in Nantsu District and Chung Yun primary school in Linyuan District. From August, 2011 to June, 2012, 26 chemical compounds were indentified from the stationary FTIR monitoring station at Nan-yang primary school, the primarily exceeded pollutants were dimethylformamide (DMF), vinyl acetate and 1,3-butandiene. Moreover, 35 chemical compounds were picked up from the monitoring station at Chung Yun primary school and the primarily exceeded pollutants were vinyl chloride, 1,2-dichloroethane and 1,3-butandiene. The local meteorological data and the raw materials of each firm in these two industrial parks were assessed to trace out the potential sources of pollutants described above. Odor routine inspections were managed to target the pollutant sources followed by OP-FTIR monitoring the up-wind and down-wind of the identified 19 factories. In the Ren Da Industrial Park, it was recognized that DMF was distributed from San Fang Chemical Industry Co., LTD, vinyl acetate from USI Corporation, 1,3-butandiene from Gold Choice Co. and TSRC Co.. Furthermore, in Linyuan Industrial Park the vinyl chloride, 1,2-dichloroethane were distributed from TVCM Co. and 1,3-butandiene from CPC Linyuan Plant. The Associate professor Wu from Taiwan National University was consigned to ensure the stability and precision of the OP-FTIR instruments by carrying out 8 inspections of quality assurance and quality control profiles. In each OP-FTIR inspection, the root mean square (RMS) noise of the three wave number regions 968~1008 cm-1, 2480~2520 cm-1 and 4380~4420 cm-1 fell between the 3σ which complied with the detection limit. This project was advanced to unite the local communities and the government by establishing the Nantsu Community Air Pollution Inspection Squad. The goal is to edit relevant teaching materials and to provide a professional training in order to strengthen the environmental expertise of the inspection squad. Apart from holding the explanation meetings to inform the pollutant distributing firms, it is suggested that each firm shall comprehend and analyze the relevant polluting processes so as to mitigate the influences to the fence-line environment. Meanwhile the monitoring results were fed back to relevant projects of Kaohsiung city Environmental Protection Bureau, such as enforcing the process component inspections in the polluting zones through VOC control plan. Besides through the Stationary Pollution Source Installation and Operating Permit system, during the companies apply for the extension or altering the operating permits, the high potential polluting zones of the plant would be required to provide improvement measures with the intention of mitigating air pollution from the industrial parks.
