Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 環境規劃與管理研究所 === 95 === Ozone is one of the major air pollutants in Taiwan. The rise of the ozone level can cause the cardiovascular disease and respiratory disease. Furthermore, it increases the medical examination rate, the mortality, and reduces the life expectancy. The objective of this study is finding the correlation between ozone level, medical expenditure, and life expectancy. The long-term relative risk of the cardiovascular disease and respiratory disease in Taiwan was used to expenditure. Therefore, to integrate the mortality in Europe and America is to estimate the changes of life expectancy according to O3 .
Result shows that the reduction of O3 level by 10 ppb can increase 9.74 days of life expectancy and NT597.04 million in medical expenditure in Taiwan.
For example, the success of executing “ the Stationary Sources VOC Emission Control and Reduce Project in Kao-Ping air quality basins in 2006” can increase every 70 hours of the life expectancy and decrease NT12.204 million dollars. In the 「Stationary Sources VOC Emission Fee」shows that in case 1, it increased 61 hours of life expectancy and NT10,705 thousand when Medical Expenditure, and in case 2, it increased 184 hours of life expectancy and NT32,115 thousand when Medical Expenditure.
