Investigation of Emission Source

Data monitored in SEMS are business information, facility information, operational data, self‑measured data of emissions, and activity.
To be more specific, the data include business status, environmental engineer, facility information on air pollutant‑emitting facilities · air pollution control facilities · exhaust stacks, operating hours, operational and maintenance data on facilities, and self‑measured data and usage.

Data monitored in SEMSⅠ (Information on places of business and their facilities)

Data monitored in SEMSⅠ
Category		Data
Business Information	General info.	Business registration number, the name of places of business, license number, administrative division, the name of a representative, business type, class 1 to 3 places of business that emit air pollutants, etc.
	Location	Postal code, phone number, address, area division (Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ), the name of an industrial complex it belongs to, etc.
	Stack	Code for places of business that operate TMS, the number of TMS stacks, business history, etc.
Environmental Engineer	Person in charge	Name, position, qualification level, telephone number, mobile number, E‑mail, Fax number
Environmental Engineer	Agency	Agency’s name, the name of person in charge, project period, telephone number, mobile number, E‑mail, Fax number
Facility Information	Information on Stack	Type (For tele‑monitoring system (TMS), TMS number and name, air pollutants measured and monitored online by TMS, etc.), serial number, name, license number, location (latitude and longitude), stack settings, pollutant emissions, classification, the number of holes for gauging pollutants, height and diameter (or cross‑sectional area), the list of air pollutants measured and the number of times of measuring emissions
	Information on air pollution control facilities	Serial number, name, identification number, code, whether to have facilities that prevent air pollutant dispersion, target air pollutants, capacity and efficiency (design vs. actual), year · cost · location of installation, whether to have integrated power meter
	Information on air pollutant‑emitting facilities	Serial number, name, identification number, category (large (combustion facilities, incineration plants, processes and storage facilities) · medium · small), installation year, etc. Combustion facilities: installation cost, design capacity, average operating capacity, boiler efficiency, etc. Incineration facilities: installation cost, design capacity, the average amount of waste incinerated, type of incinerator, materials for incineration, incineration temperature, etc. Process: the name of processes, finished products, design capacity Storage facilities: materials for storage capacity, the average amount of materials stored

Data monitored in SEMS Ⅱ (Operational Data)

Data monitored in SEMS Ⅱ
Category		Data
Operational hour		Daily operating time (hours/minutes) by stack, and others
Facility operation		Daily power usage by air pollution control facility, the name of chemicals used, daily chemicals’ usage
Facility maintenance		Maintenance period by control facility, a person in charge of maintenance, maintenance specification
Self‑measurement	Meteorological conditions	Weather, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind direction, wind speed
	Measurement date and emission gas specification	Measurement date, the method of self‑measurement (For laboratories for air pollution, choose the name of laboratory), emission gas speed · temperature · moisture content, actual measurements and standard oxygen concentrations, emission gas flow
	Air pollutants	Target air pollutants, concentrations measured, emission standard, devices used for measurement, opinion of environmental engineers on emission inspection
Usage		Fuel usage: fuel by pollutant‑emitting facility, heating value, sulfur content, usage from January to December The volume of incinerated materials: incinerated materials by incineration facility, the amount of incineration from January to December Raw material, product, electricity: raw materials by facility and monthly usage, the name of product and monthly productions, monthly power usage

Places of business input data to SEMS, and NAIR verifies those data and ask the places of business to complement the data submitted, if necessary.

* Local governments assist places of business under their jurisdiction in registering their emission data, issue business licenses, and ask for their cooperation.
* Korea Environment Corporation (KECO) collects the data of places of business that install TMS, and then transfers the data to NAIR.
