建立室內裝修期間空氣品質連續監測之流程—總揮發性有機化合物、甲醛及懸浮微粒

Abstract

隨著現今工業化和都市化的加速發展，傳統的國家安全議題已轉變為全球性的公共健康和環境問題，其中空氣汙染尤其特別嚴重。在台灣，政府於2011年制定了室內空氣品質管理法，成為全球第二個通過此類法律的國家，顯示了呼吸乾淨空氣被認為是基本人權的全球趨勢。 然而，室內空氣品質往往忽略了室內裝修工程期間可能產生的高濃度污染，裝修後室內的揮發性有機化合物需要數週才能降至安全標準以下，更不用說裝修期間的空氣品質對於從業人員會是一個重大健康風險。因此，本研究旨在透過總揮發性有機化合物、甲醛及懸浮微粒之實地和密閉環境室的連續監測，來識別和減少這些風險，以保護室內裝修從業人員避免受到過度污染的影響。 經過兩個案場的實地測量及密閉環境室實驗，結果顯示特定的工項，如打鑿和油漆，PM2.5、PM10和TVOC的濃度會明顯增加，甚至有時遠超標準值。研究中也比較監測結果與現場從業人員認知上的差異，最後建立了一套簡易視覺化警示系統，能在濃度超標時及時警告施工人員。這項工作的重要性在於，瞭解裝修期間空氣品質的變化並建議採取適當的防護措施，以保護施工人員的健康安全，不僅提升了室內裝修安全性，也增強了公眾對於室內空氣品質重要性的認識，可以推動相關法規和標準的進一步發展。

With the rapid advancement of industrialization and urbanization, traditional national security issues have transformed into global public health and environmental concerns, particularly severe air pollution. In Taiwan, the government enacted the Indoor Air Quality Management Act in 2011, becoming the second country worldwide to pass such legislation, reflecting the global trend that views clean air as a basic human right. However, the quality of indoor air is often compromised during renovation projects, with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) taking weeks to decrease to safe levels after renovations, posing significant health risks to workers. This study aims to mitigate these risks through continuous monitoring of TVOC, formaldehyde, and particulate matter in real settings and controlled environments to protect renovation workers from excessive pollution. Field measurements and controlled lab experiments have shown that certain activities, such as drilling and painting, significantly increase the concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and TVOC, exceeding standard limits. The study also explores discrepancies between monitored results and workers' perceptions and has developed a simple visual warning system to alert workers when pollutant concentrations exceed safe thresholds. This research underscores the importance of understanding air quality changes during renovations and recommends protective measures to ensure the health and safety of workers, enhancing safety in indoor renovations and raising public awareness about the importance of indoor air quality, potentially advancing relevant regulations and standards.
