CCS is not a recent issue. Efforts to reduce carbon dioxide since the 1990s have been around the world, and the carbon dioxide emitted from post-combustion flue-gases is still enormous. Membrane technology also has been widely considered as a good candidate to enrichment of CO2, but it has not been verified about the remarkable advantages compare to the other technologies; such as amine scrubbing or physical adsorption. Numerous membranes for CO2 separation with high selectivity and permeance have been developed, but the membrane process for those applications are much less. The industrial technology to concentrate and store the carbon source has not been proved enough for its massive emission and engineering issue. Moreover, membrane technology lacks database for large scale processes. In this talk, the membrane process for CCS industry will be introduced. The considerable factors for industrial application of membrane technology will be also announced.

The world is in the process of a structural change related to ICT convergence knowledge industries. ICT is leading to the creation of new products and services, and is making our lives more convenient, safer, and more efficient. In advanced countries, many studies have been conducted with the goal of developing new business models converged with ICT, and this is also the case in the food industry. Korea possesses world-leading ICT, and if this ICT is applied to the food industry, a world-class new business model can be developed. The u-Food System, which is in the process of development in Korea, is a next-generation food system that can allow food providers, consumers, and distributors to access various types of information about food products, including traceability, distribution, safety, quality, and freshness, and manage this information. It is a future food system that converges ICT, biotechnology and sensing technology with food. Based on the u-Food System, this paper will introduce the status of current smart quality distribution technologies that converge ICT (such as sensor tag, sensor network, LBS, GIS, and CDMA) with food technologies (such as traceability, quality, distribution management) to manage the safety and quality of fresh food in the distribution process.

현재 우리나라가 세계최고 수준을 보유한 해수담수화기술과 해외 플랜트 수주확대를 위한 정부정책의 필요성에 따라 지속적인 해수담수화 시장 선점을 위한 새로운 핵심기술개발이 중요해지는 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 그 중요성이 부각되고 있는 물산업의 동향, 해수담수화기술의 개요 및 시장현황을 고찰하고, 국가 R&D지원 정책방향 및 기술개발지원현황 자료를 분석하였다. 그 결과 다음과 같은 시사점을 얻을 수 있었다. 기업의 담수플랜트 운전경험 축적을 바탕으로 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있도록 제도적 장치가 필요하며, 원천기술확보를 위한 전략적 R&D지원이 이루어져야 한다. 또한, 담수화 플랜트에 소요되는 핵심기자재에 대한 국산화가 선행되어야 할 것이다.

전세계 주요 원자력선진국들의 사용후핵연료 처리에 대한 기술 및 정책현황을 알아보고 향후 우리나라의 연구방향을 제시해 보았다. 재처리 정책을 가진 소위 핵연료주기 국가들은 최근 선진핵 연료주기기술에 기초한 새로운 사용후핵 연료 관리정책을 발표하였다. 그 정책은 사용후핵연료 내에 함유된 우라늄 또는 초우란 원소들을 재순환하고 고독성의 방사성 물질 및 장반감기를 가진 물질들을 소멸하거나 단반감기 원소로 변환하는데 초점을 맞추고 있다. 이러한 정책은 원자력의 자원 활용성을 높일 뿐만 아니라, 영구 처분할 고준위폐기물의 양을 감소시켜 궁극적으로 원자력의 지속가능성을 높여 준다. PUREX 방법에 기초한 습식재처리를 우선순위로 선택한 대부분의 국가들은 이 습식방법이 건식방법에 비해 실용화에 앞서 있음을 그 선택 의 근거로 든다. 그러나 습식방법은 건식에 비해 핵확산저항성 측면에서 더욱 민감하다. 왜냐하면 이 습식방법은 약간의 공정수정에 의해 순수 플루토늄을 회수 할 수 있기 때문이다. 반면에 아직까지 실용화 단계까지는 도달해 있지 않지만 고온 용융염을 사용하는 Pyroprocess와 같은 건식처리 방법은 순수한 플루토늄을 회수 할 수 없어서 핵비확산성 측면에서 유리하며, 제4세대 원자로로 고려되는 고속로의 핵연료주기 등에도 여러 가지 이점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 우리나라의 경우 현재 이 Pyroprocess에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다.

The Digital Right Management is a technological measure that is used to protect the digital contents from illegal infringements without proper permissions. The fundamental license of DRM belongs to InterTrust and patent issue remains. There are two legal issues of DRM Technology. At first it’s DRM protection. Although the technological protection measures are becoming highly sophisticated, all the measures could be eventually defeated by technologically sophisticated users. So WIPO treaty, DMCA, EU directive and korean copyright act protect the technological measures. French copy right act accepts the content of EU directive. Second is DRM standard. Standardization of DRM is not established. Many groups like Microsoft, Apple and OMA compete to obtain DRM technology standard. At present the problem of interoperability among different DRMs is not solved. SK telecom accepts EXIM developed by MIC and ETRI and is scheduled to make interoperability possible.

A survey of staff members of higher education institutions across China at which educational technology training programs had been conducted indicated that the great majority of respondents were using educational technology in their work, although a smaller proportion felt that they had the necessary knowledge and skills to do so efficiently and effectively. The most common skills mastered were basic computer operations, Web searching, and the use of presentation software. Skills that are more integrally related to effective student learning and cost-efficient operation, such as course management and evaluation and integration of technology with lessons, were mastered only by a small minority. Respondents recommended that future training take the form of blended learning, combining face-to-face format with distance learning and self-study, and that it emphasize practical skills and direct application to the participant’s work. Other recommendations are also made regarding the establishment of standards for educational technology competencies and the improvement of evaluation of training courses.

In the United States, the implementation of educational technology is influenced by many factors, but in elementary-secondary and higher education the recent economic recession forced a slowdown in investments.. In higher education, analog media, such as overhead projection, videos, and slides, are still heavily used. Digital media use is growing, but at a slower rate each year. Most instructors exchange e-mail with students, but smaller percentages use more sophisticated applications. Course management systems, now ubiquitous, are prompting the integration of technology into instruction. Over two-thirds of all universities offer distance education, and enrollments grow by about 25 percent per year. In elementary-secondary education, technology integration has been influenced by the “No Child Left Behind” initiative. Hence, the focus has been on the use of computers as a tool for assessment. When at school, students in grades 4-12 use computers predominately in a computer lab, most commonly to find information, visit school websites, and to take tests. K-3 students use technology to play learning games, create pictures, and practice spelling and reading. The student-per-Internet– connected computer ratio was 4.3:1 in 2004. Schools are going wireless fast. Professional development continues to lag behind teachers’ needs. The largest barriers to greater adoption and use of computers are lack of time to prepare and insufficient technical support. Virtual schools continue to proliferate and attract new students. These findings indicate that pervasive access to information technology infrastructure does not guarantee its use. Social and psychological factors impinge on educators’ use of ICT.
