This study is conducted to evaluate the airborne concentration of mercury, as well as installation and efficiency of local exhaust ventilation system for 57 factories manufactured fluorescence lamps, mercury lamps and thermometers for July and August 1990. Results and conclusion are as fellows : 1) Mercury treatment factories are 32 among 57 ones, which are 18 fluorescence lamp manufacturing ones and 6 mercury lamp ones and 3 thermometer ones and 5 other ones. 2) Mean airborne concentrations of mercury for factories manufactured mercury lamps are 0.01 mg/ ㎥ in injection process and 0.0155mg/㎥ in exhaust process, and mean airborne concentration of mercury for factories manufactured thermometer are 0.023mg/㎥ in injection process and 0.012mg/㎥ in selection process. All of these airborne concentrations of mercury are lower than PEL(Permissible Exposure Limit ), 0.05mg/㎥. 3) Mean airborne concentrations of mercury for factories manufactured fluorescence lamps are 0.094mg/㎥ in injection process and 0.087mg/㎥ in exhaust process, and 0.052mg/㎥ in sealing process and 0.085mg/㎥ in other process, respectively. All of these air borne concentrations of mercury are exceeded to PEL. More than 60% among 32 factories manufactured mercury are exceeded to PEL. 4) Nine factories among 18 factories manufactured fluorestence lamps are equipped with local exhaust ventilation system, and 7 factories among 9 factories are required for the improvement of suction capacity and structure. Five factories among 14 factories manufactured mercury lamps and the other ones are equipped with local exhaust ventilation system, and 2 factories are required for the improvement of suction capacity and structure.
