PM2.5 is one of the top pollution concerns in our country. With economic and industrial development leading to an increase of transportation vehicles, the impact to air quality in the country is highly evident. Exposure to PM2.5 environment will cause cardiovascular and breathing problems. This study aims to implement international air quality management into Taiwan. After three years of hard work, this study has currently finished the Taiwan Emission Control Cost Analysis System and Benefits Mapping and Analysis Program. This study has also expanded the Emission Control Cost and Health Database, creating a database with 5 areas from the year 2010, to improve the system’s multifunctionality and ease of use.
This study major work objective is to combine database from the three years, and to aid the Environmental Protection Agency in properly using Air Benefit and Control Assessment System, (ABaCAS) database to analyze central Taiwan control cost, air quality and health benefits. By using TEDS9.0 to standardize data in 2013, the central area cost database could be updated and upgraded, to allow valid cost control analysis. Thus, with the 2013 air quality simulation and database being linked to cities to exercise proper control policies, it is possible to do even more detailed health assessment. Implementing a Taiwan-American coordinated database, this study is able to support the Taiwan Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with information and policies from the NAAQS and American EPA, to improve Taiwan’s air quality policy and simulation efficiency and validity.
