According to the recently revised seismic design standards, seismic design of underground structures is required. Concrete underground outer walls are installed separately from temporary earth retaining walls as permanent underground outer walls. This raises issues of constructability, economy, and space narrowness. Therefore, a steel underground continuous wall is developed to promote construction efficiency, safety, and economy by introducing the off-site construction (OSC) method of underground structures. The steel underground continuous wall will be used as a permanent underground continuous wall along with the temporary earth retaining wall. To this end, it must satisfy structural performance equivalent to or higher than the concrete underground outer wall. The integrity and in-plane shear resistance performance between single panel members must be satisfied to be used as a permanent wall. The interlocking effect through geometric bonding is intended to enhance the bonding effect between these members. Therefore, trapezoidal members were developed, and bending performance tests and analyses of each member were performed to confirm the structural bending performance of these members. The bending performance improvement effect of the combined multiple members was confirmed. As a result, it was confirmed that the integration of members and structural performance was improved due to the interlocking effect of the absence of joints. The seismic design analysis of the demonstration site was performed with these developed members, and it was confirmed that the structural performance was equivalent to or higher than that of the existing RC underground continuous wall. As a result, it was confirmed that the steel underground continuous wall can be used as a permanent underground wall together with the temporary earth retaining wall.
Since 2005 the landfilling of food waste has been prohibited, and many recycling facilities (private, domestic, animalfeed conversion, public composting) have been constructed and operated as waste-treatment centers. However, due to the negative attitude of users on the domestic animal feed and compost produced from food waste, the byproducts of waste have created a vicious cycle, needing treatment themselves. In addition, the London Convention prohibited the discharge of organic waste such as sewage sludge into the ocean in 2012 and of food-waste leachate in 2013. An alternative to landfilling and incineration is to treat biomass with anaerobic digestion. However, the anaerobic-digestion efficiency of the Daejeon City bioenergy facility, which has adopted a mixed digestion process of food waste and food waste leachate, has not been reproduced in other municipalities due to a misunderstanding of anaerobic digestion and a lack of operating skill. Thus, the anaerobic-digestion efficiency of the bioenergy facility in Deajeon is analyzed, and it provides basic information for the anaerobic co-digestion of organic wastes.
