Quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emission is important for evaluating various reduction measures for greenhouse gas, which causes significant negative impacts on earth. To estimate GHG emission from waste sector over the period of between 2000 and 2009 in Daejeon Metropolitan City, the 2006 IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and Korean GHG Inventory for local government guidelines and methodologies were employed. Four different waste treatment methods (landfill, incineration, biological treatment, and Sewage wastewater treatment) were evaluated to estimate GHG emission by following the guidelines. The trends of GHG emission rate by direct emission increased between 2000 and 2009 as a result of increased incineration rate. The solid waste sector was directly responsible for 307,700 tonCO2eq/yr in 2009. Incineration contributed approximately 57% of the GHG emission, while landfill disposal was responsible for about 30% of the GHG. Approximately 464,400 tonCO2eq/yr in 2009 was emitted by indirect emission from the waste sector. Based on the results, a variety of measures are needed to reduce the GHG emission from waste sector in Daejeon Metropolitan City along with implementing effective waste source reduction and recycling policy. More specifically, this evaluation proposed that among the possible reduction options, further source separation of recyclables as well as improved diversion of recyclable materials at proposed Daejeon resource recycling complex in 2014 would have the greater benefits for reducing GHG emissions in Daejeon Metropolitan City's waste sector.

In this study, which aims to estimate the volume of greenhouse gas emitted by road transportation vehicles in Changwon City, the emission rate was calculated on the basis of the actual traffic volume measured at major crossroads and compared with the results obtained from the methodology used to estimate the greenhouse gas emissions of road transportation provided in the IPCC 2006 GL guidelines (Tier 1, Tier 3). Analysis of the results of the comparison showed that the Tier 1 methodology, which was applied in the estimation of the rate of greenhouse gas emissions, carries a high probability of underestimation, while the Tier 3 methodology carries a relatively high probability of overestimation. Therefore, when considering the assignment of permissible rates of emission to local governments, the application of the methodology, i.e. whether one uses Tier 1 or Tier 3, may result in a large difference in the rate of allowable emissions. It is suggested that a method based on the actual volume of traffic would be the most reasonable one with regard to the development of a realistic plan.

The aim of this study is investigated greenhouse gas emissions of glass industry, and when calculates greenhouse gas emission, using formula(Tier 3) advising in IPCC(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and using self designed formula(Tier 3+) authors of this study. Studied to propose calculation formula that can compare these two calculation results and apply to domestic. Formula of Tier 3 calculated to theoretical composition of carbonate material, And Formula of Tier 3+ calculated on the basis of chemical substance formation table that get from glass manufacture company(The S company). As a result, Dolomite, Soda ash, Limestone, Industrial Barium carbonate is calculated value of Tier 3+ lower than value of Tier 3, And Industrial Potassium carbonate, Industrial Strontium carbonate was calculated value of Tier 3 lower than value of Tier 3. This study finding, formula of Tier 3+ has higher confidence than formula of Tier 3 when consider revision about purity of injection raw material. And hereafter, When calculate greenhouse gas emissions about nonmetallic mineral industry, use of Tier 3+ is considered that should be encouraged.
