Waste recycling comes to the fore because of resources depletion and environmental pollution. ‘End-of-Waste (EoW)Criteria’ are reported to help improve recycling by determining when a waste ceases to be a waste, independently fromthe waste management option, and guarantee higher quality of secondary materials by environmental requirements of thesematerials. This approach can reduce consumption of natural resources and decrease the amount of waste sent for disposal.The aim of this study is to comprehensively review and analyze the current criteria on the End of Waste in foreigncountries. In addition, this paper suggests policy implications to promote more recycling and use of waste materials asresources by comparing domestic and foreign regulations. Based on the research, domestic EoW criteria need to be morecleared in the aspect to hazard assessment, ensuring a high level of environmental protection and solving legal uncertaintyhindering the development of the recycling sector.

Biogas is a clean environment friendly fuel that is produced by bacterial conversion of organic matter underanaerobic condition. Raw biogas contains about 55~65% methane, 30~45% carbon dioxide, 0.5% of hydrogensulfide gas and fraction of water vapor. Pure methane has a caloric value of 9,800 kcal/m3, but the caloric value ofraw biogas is about 5,000kcal/m3. To achieve the standard composition of the biogas the treatment techniques likeabsorption or membrane separation must be applied. In this paper the experimental results of the methane purificationin simulated biogas mixture consisted of methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide were presented. It was shownthat the using the hollow fiber module with polysulfone membrane it was possible to achieve the purification ofmethane from the concentration of 55% up to 97%. The membrane material was resistant to the small concentrationsof sour gases and for the prevention of methane losses the membrane system has to be used to improve processefficiency.

Municipal solid wastes incinerator (MSWI) bottom ash and melting slag are used to prepare external panel for increasingthe recycling rate of them in this study. In case of external panel, the most important property is flexural strength. Becauseit is easily distorted by external force. Wasted glass fiber (below WGF) is used to increase the flexural strength of externalpanel. Flexural strength of prepared panel was 14.6MPa of the mixing ratio of 3.0wt% WGF. But compressive strengthwas decreased with the addition of WGF. Because L/S ratio has to be increased to enhance the workability at high additionamount of WGF. High liquid content hinders geopolymer formation. But compressive strength (about 20MPa) was notlow at this condition.

It was investigated for the feasibility of recycling lawn waste from a golf course to use liquid fertilizer. Turfgrassclippings, microbial agent, waste molasses and synthetic culture medium were used as a raw material of liquid fertilizer,and those were fermented anaerobically to investigate the optimum mixing ratio and fermentation period. The sanitarysafety of liquid fertilizer was evaluated as well. When the turfgrass clippings and waste molasses were used as a rawmaterial of liquid fertilizer, increase of the amount of waste molasses resulted in the decrease of decomposition rate oforganic matter. When the high concentration of the organic wastes were decomposed, the organic acids were accumulatedby the predominant acid forming stage resulted in inefficient anaerobic digestion. The optimum mixing ratios for 1 gramof grass waste were 2.4 to 3.6mL for sugar and 1.6 to 2.4mL for EM (Effective Microorganism), respectively. It wasalso found that optimum fermentation period was about 15 days. The concentration of heavy metals from the manufacturedliquid fertilizer was less than the standards guideline. The microorganisms were observed by SEM (Scanning ElectronMicroscopy) and spherical and rod shaped microorganisms were predominated. The sizes of spherical and rod shapedmicroorganisms were 0.7~0.8µm and 0.7×1.3µm, respectively. The population density of microorganisms wasincreased rapidly after the 15 days.

Carbon dioxide generated from construction materials and construction material industry among the fields ofconstruction is approximately 67 million tons. It is about 30% of the carbon dioxide generated in the fields of construction.In order to reduce carbon dioxide in the fields of construction, it is necessary to control the use of fossil fuel consumedand decrease carbon emission by reducing the secondary and tertiary curing generating carbon dioxide in constructionmaterial industry. Therefore, this study manufactured mortar by having cement as the base and substituting three bindingmaterials up to 50% and then adopted different curing methods to analyze congelation and strength characteristics. According to the result of strength characteristics by the types of binding materials and replacement ratio, the specimensubstituting ESA (Early Strength Admixture) and FPC (Fine Particle Cement) showed active strength improvement. Inparticular, the specimen substituting ESA as 25% indicated the greatest strength improvement, and as the number of curingincreased, the strength grew higher, too. And when the binding material was used by substitution, it showed strengthcharacteristics similar to or higher than the specimen conducting tertiary autoclave curing as the secondary steam curing.

In spite of the government's various efforts to reduce food waste, the food waste in Korea has increased about 3%every year, mainly due to the growing population, number of households, and income. Food waste occurs in the processesof production, transportation, distribution, storage and cooking of food ingredients. However, there has been little reliabledata about how households - a major food waste source - store and treat their food and how much food waste they produce.In this regard, we thought it was important to understand the exact amount and characteristics of food waste fromhouseholds in order to reduce the country's food waste, which is why we monitored kinds, storage periods, treatment,and waste of food consumed in 100 households in the Seoul metropolitan area. Households normally store their foodingredients in refrigerators - on average 33 kinds and 35kg of food are stored - and some of them stayed there for upto 3 years. Moreover, not a small portion of the food is thrown away nearly untouched, mostly because people tend topurchase too much food at one time or they don't know or miss their expiration dates. The amounts of food waste bytype were in the order of vegetable>side dish>frozen food>fruit>seasoning. Also, we suggest effective and realisticmeasures to reduce food waste and promote a more desirable food consumption culture.

Biogas from anaerobic digestion of biological wastes is a renewable energy resource. It has been utilized to provideheat and electricity. Raw biogas contains about 55~65% methane, 30~45% carbon dioxide, 0.5% of hydrogen sulfidegas and fraction of water vapor. The presence of CO2 and H2S in biogas affects less caloric value of raw biogas andcorrosion of engine etc.. Reducing CO2 and H2S contents improves a quality of fuel. In this paper, the absorption processusing aqueous monoethanol amine has been investigated as one of the leading technologies to purify the biogas. Liquidabsorbent is circulated through the reactor, contacting the biogas in countercurrent flow. The experimental results of themethane purification in simulated biogas mixture consisted of methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide werepresented. It was shown that using aqueous solution used is effective in reacting with CO2 in biogas and it was possibleto achieve the purification of methane from the concentration of 55% up to 98%. This technique proved to be efficientin enriching and purifying of biogas, and has to be used to improve process efficiency.

This study assessed the analysis method for measuring volatile organic silicon compounds (namely as siloxanes) by usinggas chromatography with flame ionization detector. Calibration standard gas was made in a laboratory by using six volatileorganic silicons as model gas. Two different types of working gas were prepared to evaluate quality control in GC-FIDanalysis. Less than 0.2 RSD% of repeatability of retention time was observed in the analysis of calibration standard gas. Inthe linearity test, the highest coefficient of determination (R2) was found to be 0.997 for L2 among volatile organic siliconcompounds. This study demonstrated that quantification of volatile organic silicon compounds can be performed by usingGC-FID analysis with direct injection mode, and the GC calibration can be covered by the gas-phase standard method.

Volatile organic silicon compounds (namely as siloxanes) are impurities in biogas generated from landfill and biogas.They have been known to cause damages to gas combustion engines. However, factors affecting process design decisionshave been less studied. In this research, we experimentally determined the gas-liquid partition coefficients (Kp) of siloxanesby applied the equilibrium partition experiment in closed system. we also investigated the effects of liquid solutes onsiloxanes partitioning. Five different types of siloxanes and five different types of liquid solutes (distilled water, nutrientsolution, ferrous sulfate solution, and surfactant solutions) were selected for this study. Dimensionless gas-liquid partitioncoefficients of siloxanes were determined to be 8.808 for L2, 2.278 for L3, 1.455 for L4, 3.435 for D4, and 0.770 forD5. Partition coefficients varied by liquid solutes, Especially for surfactants as liquid solutes, mass transfer of siloxanesfrom gas to liquid was enhanced, showing the lowest coefficients of partitioning.

In the present study, lab-scale fast pyrolysis reactor (1kg/hr) using lignocellulosic waste biomass was numerically modeledwith various reaction mechanism and the calculation results were compared. Three kinds of reaction mechanisms were appliedsuch as three-step mechanism, two-stage, semi global mechanism and Broido-Shafizadeh mechanism to simulate chemicalreactions in the fast pyrolysis reactor. The fast pyrolysis reactor was modeled as function of mass fraction and reactiontemperature following each reaction mechanism. Especially, the reaction temperature is one of important factors to determinebio-oil yield. Hence, in this study, reaction rates and yield of fast pyrolysis products were compared with varying reactiontemperature for the three kinds of reaction mechanism. The variation of reaction rate for two-stage, semi global mechanismand Broido-Shafizadeh mechanism showed very similar pattern but, three-step mechanism has different trend because theeffect of secondary reaction was missing. The yield of tar was increased before reaching maximum tar yield at 430oC and520oC for two-stage, semi global mechanism and Broido-Shafizadeh mechanism, respectively then decreased as temperaturerises more. But, the yield of tar was increased continuously for three-step mechanism as temperature rises. The yield of non-condensable gas and char was increased as temperature rises for three kinds of reaction mechanisms.

In order to utilize waste wood chip for pavement, a polyurethane resin that is both eco-friendly and suitable for bindingwood chip was developed as the binder, and workability was examined through laboratory experiment for characteristicsof waste wood chip mixture using the polyurethane resin and through test pavement on the field. The new resin was aVOC reduction type free from plasticizer and solvent classified as endocrine-disrupting chemicals and environmentalhazardous substances, and NCO equivalents were set at 8, 9, 10 and 11% by modifying the polyisocyanate-polyol ratio.Laboratory experiment showed that polyurethane resin with NCO equivalent of 9% and 10% had excellent characteristicsas binder for waste wood chip. In the field experiment applying waste wood chip and polyurethane resin in the massratio of 1:0.8, tensile strength of the pavement system was about 30% higher than that using polyurethane resin currentlybeing sold, and permeability coefficient and elasticity thereof were the same as that using the resin currently being sold.Also, examination of compaction methods for waste wood chip pavement system showed that non-heating hand rollerand compactor had the problem of the “waste wood chip - resin mixture” sticking to the roller during the compaction but that heating hand roller had excellent workability and could achieve good planation surface relatively easily.

In order to obtain the optimal design of a char removal cyclone, the effect of the vortex finder height and inlet shapeon its performance are numerically carried out. The pressure drop and collection efficiency are calculated for four differentcyclones with different vortex finder heights and inlet shapes. To validate the present numerical process, the calculatedpressure drops for two types of cyclones are compared with experimental results and the results show a good agreementbetween experimental and numerical results. From the results, increasing the height of the vortex finder, the collectionefficiency is increased. As for cyclone inlet shapes, the tangential one is characterized by lower efficiency compared withthe volute counterpart. The current result can be used for the design of cyclones with high collection efficiency, especiallyfor removing tiny char which is generated during fast pyrolysis process of waste biomass.

Concrete strength is not only an important factor in design and quality control, but it also represents the overall qualityof concrete. The use of admixture has been increasingly prevalent in the recent cases of concrete production as a meansto improve the functionality of concrete. Of particular note, fly ash is added in either the cement or the ready-mixedconcrete production stage with the general mixing ratio being about 15%; however, using fly ash slows down the initialhydration of the binding material, which can in turn cause a delay in acquisition of strength. In this study, calcium sulfoaluminate (C4A3S; CSA) was added to improve the initial strength of cement after the use of fly ash, and its effect instrength improvement was analyzed. The substitution ratios of fly ash were 0, 10, 20 and 30%, and the amount of CSAadded to improve the initial strength was 8% of the fly ash weight. The results of the experiment showed that adding CSA resulted in high calorific values at peaks 1 and 2 of hydration heat, and an X-ray diffraction analysis showed thatthe amount of unhydrated materials was higher with increasing substitution ratio of fly ash. An increase in CSA wasalso shown to lead to a higher amount of ettringite being generated in the early ages. In conclusion, addition of 30% flyash and 8% CSA led to an ettringite production that was 3 times higher than the mixing ratio of fly ash, which effectivelyimproved the initial strength. The same phenomenon was observed in the electron microscope analysis. Based on theseresults, it was determined that adding CSA in an amount that equaled to 8% of fly ash weight can promote the productionof ettringite, thereby improving the initial strength, which gets reduced by the use of fly ash.

In this study, the effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) pre-treatment for sewage sludge prior to anaerobic digestion wasassessed using a batch test with an objective to decrease nitrogen, dissolved sulfide and siloxane in sewage sludge. Atotal of 6 sets of experiments (Blank, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100g H2O2/kg wet sludge) were carried out, each with duplicates.To assess the effect of different dosages of H2O2 on anaerobic digestion, the treated sewage sludge was used for biochemical methane potential (BMP) test and SCODcr concentration. Due to the H2O2 pre-treatment, solubilization of SCODcr in pretreated sludge increased by 89% compared to raw sewage sludge, whereas T-N and NH3-N concentrationdecreased. Cumulative methane yields were increased for all pretreated samples due to increased sludge solubilizationthrough H2O2 pre-treatment. In addition, dissolved siloxane concnetrations were decreased for all pretreated samples. Thus,a reduction in dissolved siloxane concenrtation can decrease the siloxane generation potential of sludge during anaerobicdigestion. However, dissolved sulfide concentration remained same. Although H2O2 dosage did not show any furtherimpact on dissolved sulfide, they have significantly decreased T-N, NH3-N and dissolve siloxane concentrations beforeanaerobic digestion.

The characteristics of phosphorus removal from the wastewater containing high concentrations of PO43− and NH4+ bystruvite formation in a jet loop crystallizer was investigated. By adding air into the jet loop crystallizer, the initial pH ofthe wastewater (pH=7.2) was gradually increased to 8.0 due to the CO2 stripping. As a result, the amount of causticchemicals added to maintain a desired level of operational pH of 8.5 could be reduced. The molar ratio of Mg:P in thewastewater used was always below 1. Therefore, the magnesium concentration was the limiting factor for struviteformation. To find the effective magnesium source, MgCl2, MgSO4, MgO, MgO+MgCl2, and MgO+MgSO4 were usedas a magnesium source. Among these chemicals, MgO+MgSO4 was the most effective in saving the operational cost.Throughout the experiments, a high percentage (89%) of phosphorus removal was achieved when MgCl2 was used asan Mg source. The removal efficiencies of phosphorus in the jet loop crystallizer with aeration were higher than thosein the crystallizer without aeration.

This research was performed to evaluate the recycling characteristics by physico-chemical analysis of the wasted andthe reclaimed rubbers. Two types of the powdered and the reclaimed rubbers were sampled and analyzed. Pb was detectedin the range of 2.55~194.00mg/kg for the powdered rubber product, of which some exceeded the rubber standard criteria(90mg/kg), while it was 0.05~50.80mg/kg for the reclaimed rubber. Zn showed the highest concentration of heavymetals in the rubber products, comparing to the other heavy metals. It ranged from 9,750mg/kg to 27,900mg/kg, and388mg/kg to 17,450mg/kg for the powdered and the reclaimed rubber products, respectively. Total PAHs concentrationsof the powdered and the reclaimed rubber products exceeded greatly the rubber standard criteria (10mg/kg) as221.7~18,842.8mg/kg and not-detected~14,248.0mg/kg, respectively. Therefore, it was concluded that the managementplan and environmental criteria should be prepared for the recycled rubber product, considering the concentrations ofhazardous compounds such as Pb, Zn, and PAHs.
