Incensing will increase the concentration of particulate matter of various diameters in indoor air, especially for heavy incensing happen in temple festival day. For exploring the increasing extents of PM0-1, PM1-2.5, PM2.5-7, PM7-10, and PM10-∞ in indoor and outdoor air from worship actions in temple and understanding which kind of particulate matter is the major contributor for the pollution, three famous temples in Kaohsiung-Pingtung area(Kung-Ti temple in Kaohsiung, Tong-Lung temple in Tongang and Fu-An temple in Checheng)were chosen as the investigative objects in this study. The important festival day (peak time) and common day(non-peak time) of these three temples were picked up as investigative time. The investigative data show the average indoor and outdoor concentration(μg/m3)of PM0-1, PM1-2.5, PM2.5-7, PM7-10, and PM10-∞ for all investigated temples in peak and non-peak time are indoor peak (17.4, 60.4, 144.6, 206.6, 310.3), outdoor peak (2.0, 7.0, 23.3, 29.2, 34.8), indoor non-peak (14.0, 46.8, 93.1, 114.9, 147.3), and outdoor non-peak (3.9, 13.9, 36.2, 45.9, 54.9), respectively. The study results show incensing behavior largely increases the concentrations of various particulate matters in indoor air of temple and the particulate matter belonged to PM7-10 is the major contributor (made 48.2 % contribution)to PM10 which is harmful to the human. |
