Outline of Research at the Start

本研究の最終目的は「いつ，どこで，どのくらい人はPM0.1にばく露するのか」という問いに答えることである。そのためには，気中ナノ粒子(PM0.1)健康リスクを評価する新しいツール「PM0.1と人間動態の同時多点観測のためのIoTネットワーク」が必要であると考え，この構築に挑戦する。本申請研究は，IoTネットワーク構築を想定したふたつの技術「PM0.1リアルタイムセンサ」と「人間動態モニタ」のうち，前者の開発を目的とするタイとの国際共同研究である。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to develop a real-time sensor for airborne nanoparticles (PM0.1) for IoT network construction, we investigated the detection performance of an optical particle counter for airborne nanoparticles. We found that the nanoparticle detection rate for varies depending not only on particle size but also on particle type. Because we need data in various environments to develop the nanoparticle concentration measurement function based on this technology, we accumulate data through atmospheric observation experiments in collaboration monitoring in the "East Asia International Nanoparticle Observation Network" and the "Hajai City Smart City Project" in Thailand.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究のターゲットとして設定した「安価・小型で」「ナノ粒子(PM0.1)を」「オンライン観測する」センサ技術は開始時点には存在せず，終了時点でもまだそのような商品は存在しない。製品の完全な実用化には実証データからに基づく調整が必要であり，いくつか技術的な問題が残されているが，実現すればナノ粒子モニタリングの敷居が下がり「粒子の大きさ」に着目した研究が進むことが期待される。
