2014년 기준 대전광역시의 생활폐기물 발생량은 총 1451.2톤/일로 재활용품 496.7톤/일, 분리배출 음식물 400.1톤/일, 가연성폐기물 495.1톤/일, 불연성폐기물 59.3톤/일인데 매립으로 227.8톤/일이, 소각으로 297.6톤/일이, 재활용으로 925톤/일이 처리되어지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 금고동 위생매립장은 대전광역시 전역에서 발생하는 생활폐기물 등 1일 평균 약 780톤을 매립 개시 후 1996년 8월부터 2020년(예상)까지 안정적으로 처리할 수 있는 대단위 위생매립장이다. 그러나 매립되는 폐기물의 성상 변화 및 2020년으로 예상되어지는 매립연한 때문에 문제가 발생하고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 환경에너지종합타운을 조성하여 반입되는 생활폐기물의 일부를 SRF 시설을 통해 고형연료화 할 예정이다. SRF 시설은 폐기물에 함유된 수분, 금속, 유리 등과 같은 불연성분을 건조, 파쇄, 선별 등의 공정을 통하여 제거하고 가연성분을 가공해 고체 연료화 하는 시설이다. 폐기물의 청정 처리는 물론, 에너지 효율도 높아 에너지 부족 문제 해결과 더불어 주거 및 대기환경 문제 해결이 가능하기 때문에 우리나라의 현실에 상당히 적합한 기술이라고 판단할 수 있다. 또한, 기존의 폐기물 소각시설에 비해 운영 비용이 적게 들며, 청정처리 과정을 거치기 때문에 님비(NIMBY) 현상에 따른 지역 주민들의 반발 우려도 적은 편이다. 2018년 2월 가동 예정중인 SRF 시설은 200톤/일×2계열 = 400톤/일 시설규모로써, 설계기준 가동 일수는 261일/년이고 가동시간은 16hr/일이다. 이 시설을 통해 매립장으로 반입되는 생활폐기물중 286톤/일 (400톤/일 × 261일/년 ÷ 365일/년)이 고형연료로 전환된다. 전환된 비성형 상태의 고형연료는 폐기물연료화부속시설의 보일러를 통해 에너지가 회수된다. 2018년 2월부터 시설이 본격적으로 가동되면 매립장으로의 반입폐기물량 변화는 불가피하다. 이를 분석한 결과 매립대상폐기물인 생활폐기물과 사업장생활계폐기물이 전처리시설로 투입됨으로써 매립되는 폐기물량이 17~21%까지 감소될 수 있으며, 이에 따라 매립장 사용연한의 연장도 꾀할 수 있다고 판단되어진다.

To develop various usable water from coal seam gas (CSG) water that needs to be pumped out from coal seams for methane gas production, a feasibility study was carried out, evaluating and analysing a recent report (Coal Seam Gas Water Management Policy 2012) from Queensland State Government in Australia to suggest potential CSG water treatment options for fit-for-purpose usable water production. As CSG water contains intrinsically high salinity-driven total dissolved solid (TDS), bicarbonate, aliphatic carbon, Ca+2, Mg+2 and so on, it was found that appropriate treatment technologies are required to reduce the hardness below 60 mg/L as CaCO3 by setting the reduction rates of Ca+2, Mg+2 and Na+ concentrations, as well as TDS reduction. Also, Along with fiber filtration and membrane separation, an oxidation degradation process was found to be required. Along with salinity reduction, as CSG water contains organic compounds (TOC: 248 mg/L, C6 -C9: <20 mg/L and C10 - C36: <60 mg/L), compounds with relatively high molecular weights (C10 - C36) need to be treated first. Therefore, this study suggests a combined system design with filtration (Reverse osmosis) and oxidation reduction (electrolysis) technologies, offering proper operating conditions to produce fit-for-purpose usable water from CSG water.

Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) emerged as alternative refrigerants after chloro fluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydro-chloro fluorocarbons (HCFCs) were identified as substances requiring control by the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. However, because the Kyoto Protocol considered HFCs as greenhouse gases, and their impact on climate change has been increasing, major developed countries have been strengthening the existing level of regulations related to the use of HFCs as refrigerants. In addition, South Korea has also passed various legislations relating to refrigerant management, in the form of policies such as the Wastes Control Act, the Act on Control etc. of the Manufacture of Specific Substances for the Protection of the Ozone Layer, the Clean Air Conservation Act, and the Act on Resource Circulation of Electrical and Electronic Equipment and Vehicles. However, reports indicate that these regulations have not been followed effectively due to the lack of a specific system relating to the phased management of production, use, and disposal of refrigerant materials. In order to identify and solve the problems relating to refrigerant management in South Korea, this study investigates the current state of refrigerant management in three separate phases: production, use, and disposal of refrigerants. Outstanding refrigerant management policies are also analyzed, using those enacted in the EU, United States, and Japan as examples, and these are then compared to regulations in Korea.

최근 정부는 국가적 차원에서 국민의 안전을 위한 정책마련에 심혈을 기울이고 있다. 기존의 자연재해 방재분야를 중심으로 개발되어 왔던 방재주제도와 더불어 보행안전, 교통사고안전, 학교생활안전 등의 생활안전분야 지도 발굴 및 개발이 절실하다. 본 연구는 재난안전관리에 활용할 수 있는 방재 및 생활안전 지도의 발굴과 개발을 목적으로 한다. 유관기관의 공간 및 속성자료를 분석하여 자료의 활용 가능성을 타진하였으며, 개발 가능한 지도의 컨텐츠를 검토하였다. 다양한 공공데이터의 공간`속성자료를 활용하여 방재 및 생활안전분야에서 유용한 지도가 구축될 것이라 기대한다.

According to lifestyle changes, the consumers’ concern about food also shifts from calories and nutrition to health and convenience. Fresh-cut produce is one of the new turns in the consumption pattern of fruits and vegetables. The increasing demand for it requires processors to make them stable in quality and safe from microorganisms. The results of the evaluation of the production process and hygienic management of fresh-cut lettuce revealed that the facilities used, such as the drainage holes, floors, and door knobs, were severely contaminated with microbes, and that the work equipment, workbenches, landing nets, and centrifuges were highly contaminated. Accordingly, improved production processes and management systems are necessary, as is the implementation of a quality control system from the stage of raw-material purchase to the distribution stage.

The actual status of production, management and export of 96 traditional food processing companies which supported by the government in Kyungpook province were investigated. Governmental support contributed to the increase of farmhouse income, employment and depreciation of agricultural products a bit, but it was supported mostly to unexperienced party. Technologies for food processing developed in institute and college were little. 42 percent of packaging design was developed by service commission, but the agency was very limited. Total export price in 1996 was 2.3 billion Won, but it was decreased in 1997. The responce to the prospect of traditional food processing work, 37.5 percent replied that this work can bring up as exportable product, but ambiguious response was a little. To settle a weakness of farming food processing work, the establishment of special marketing comapny was required and this company should accomplish marketing advertizing and exporting business.
