Korea Ministry of Environment (Korea MOE) enacted the “Greenhouse Gas and Energy Target Management System (GETMS), which requires annual GHG reporting to establish GHG reduction targets for large-scale business places (458) emitting large amount of greenhouse gases (60% of total amount in Korea). The waste sector has higher potential for reduction of greenhouse gases compared to other sectors. Thus, this paper reviewed the methodologies modified based on national guidelines and estimated the greenhouse gas emissions for three categories of the waste sector in Daejeon Metropolitan City (DMC), South Korea. Further analysis for basic unit, i.e., greenhouse gas emissions per ton of solid waste, wastewater, and purified water in the waste sector was conducted to figure out main contributors for GHG emissions. Direct emissions (Scope 1) and indirect emissions (Scope 2) of 11 environmental infrastructures managed by DMC were selected for quantifying and managing of regional GHG emissions. The annual estimation for greenhouse gas emissions in the waste sector in DMC with a population of 1.52 million people was 254,235 tons CO₂ equiv. per year, which includes the main contributor of wastewater treatment 78,063 tons CO2 equiv., waste incineration 76,186 tons CO₂ equiv., and managed waste disposal sites 70,455 tons CO₂ equiv. Basic unit showed that most contributors were waste incineration, followed by the waste disposal site, biological treatment of solid waste, wastewater treatment, and public water supplies. Solid waste treatment/ disposal has best potential role in reducing GHG emissions. In general, therefore, it seems that reduction strategies for the main contributor should be prior to other categories and lead to best practice for managing GHG emissions, especially considering annual budgets.

시설오이로 많이 재배되고 있는 4 품종을 선발하여 생육단계별로 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량, 피부염증과 가려움증 관련 Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Malassezia furfur균에 대한 항균효과 그리고 tyrosinase 억제 활성에 대하여 비교 분석하였다. 총 페놀 함량은 장죽청장과 장형낙합 품종에서 늘푸른청장과 신조은백다다기 품종에 비해 상대적으로 다소 높게 나타났으며, 생육단계별로는 대부분 수확기에 이른 5단계에서 높은 함량을 보였다. 총 플라보노이드 함량은 조사된 오이 4품종 모두 생육단계별로 큰 차이를 나타내지는 않았다. 항균활성은 Staphylococcus aureus균에서는 장형낙합 품종이 모든 생육단계에서 상대적으로 높은 활성을 보였으며, Staphylococcus epidermidis균에서는 생육단계 및 품종에 따라 저해환이 8~12 mm로 항균성에 차이를 나타냈다. 또한 Malassezia furfur균에서는 장죽청장에서 항균활성이 높게 나타났으며, 특히 생육 3, 4단계에서는 저해환이 14 mm로 형성되어 가장 높은 항균효과를 보였다. 전체적으로 오이의 항균성은 Staphylococcus aureus균에서 비교적 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 오이 추출물의 tyrosinase 억제 활성은 장축청장과 신조은백다다기 품종에서 상대적으로 높은 활성을 보였으며, 다음으로 장형낙합 품종에서 비교적 높게 나타났지만, 늘푸른청장의 경우는 상대적으로 낮은 활성을 보였다. 또한 생육초기보다 수확기에 이르렀을 때 모든 품종에서 tyrosinase 억제 활성이 다소 높게 나타났다. 본 실험의 결과, 피부상재균 및 비듬균에 대한 오이의 항균성과 미백효능을 확인함으로서 향후 고부가가치 향장소재로서의 이용성을 더욱 증대시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

시설오이로 많이 재배되고 있는 4 품종을 선발하여 생육단계별로 DPPH radical 소거활성, 아질산염 소거활성, ABTS 소거활성 그리고 항산화효소 활성에 대하여 비교 분석하였다. 장죽청장 품종이 모든 생육단계에서 DPPH radical 소거활성이 상대적으로 높게 나타났으며, 그 외 품종들 간에는 큰 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 또한 생육단계별로는 수확기에 못 미친 미성숙단계에서 DPPH radical 소거 활성이 높게 나타났다. 아질산염 소거활성은 pH가 1.2일 경우 모든 품종과 생육단계에서 40% 이상 분해시켰으며, 특히 장형낙합과 신조은백다다기 품종이 상대적으로 높은 활성을 보였다. 또한 pH 4.0에서는 추출물 모두에서 30% 이상의 아질산염 소거활성을 나타냈으며, pH 6.0에서는 대부분 활성이 없었다. ABTS 소거활성은 장죽청장과 늘푸른 청장 품종이 다른 품종보다 상대적으로 다소 높은 소거능을 나타냈고, 생육단계별로는 대부분의 품종에서 ABTS 소거능에 큰 차이를 보이지는 않았다. SOD 활성은 모든 품종과 전 생육단계에서 95% 이상의 높은 활성을 보였으며, 품종 간에 거의 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. CAT 활성은 전체적으로 장죽청장과 늘푸른청장 품종이 그리고 APX 활성은 늘푸른청장, 장형낙합 품종에서 상대적으로 높은 활성을 나타냈고, POX 활성은 생육단계별로 뚜렷한 경향을 보여 수확기에 이를수록 활성이 현저히 감소하는 결과를 나타냈다. 본 실험의 결과, 오이의 높은 항산화능을 확인함으로서 향후 향장소재 및 식품소재로서의 이용 가치성을 증대시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.

Needs for more accurate greenhouse gas (GHG) emission estimation are increasing to prepare for post-Kyoto protocol and emission trading starting from 2015 in Korea. Although GHG emission from landfill is relatively low, uncertainty of methane emissions from landfill is very high compared to the other sectors. Moreover, accurate estimation is needed to design landfill gas collection system and energy generation plant. In this paper, we investigated development methodologies of parameters comprising methane generation potential (L0) which is one of key parameters in methane emission estimation models. DOC included four steps including analysis of waste component, water content, organic carbon content, fossil carbon content. Instead of analysis of organic carbon content and fossil carbon content, biochemical analysis, measuring content of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, is used in MELMod, landfill gas generation model in UK. Methodologies to develop DOCF has several methods including batch test, lysimeter test and test cell. They had difference in scale and similarity to landfill, but it is hard to consider the best method at the present stage. Preceding research on MCF is little. Lysimeter test and test cell can be the candidate to develop MCF, because of flexibility on test condition to characterize the structure of landfill sites. F is defined as fraction of methane in landfill gas. But by carbon flow and mass balance, F should represent fraction of methane in biogas generated by anaerobic decomposition. In this definition, F can be derived by same methods to that of DOCF.

Emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHGs) from aircraft activities at 11 small-scale airports were investigated using the emissions and dispersion modeling system (EDMS) version 5.1.3 during the two year period of 2009~2010. The number of landing and take-off (LTO) at these airports was dominant for the aircraft type B737, accounting for more than 60% of the total LTOs. Out of the 11 small-scale airports, Gwangju (GJ, RKJJ) airport was the largest emitter of air pollutants and GHGs, whereas Yangyang (YY, RKNY) airport was the smallest emitter. The emissions of NOx and VOCs in 2010 at the 11 airports ranged from 1.9 to 83 ton/y and 0.1 to 17 ton/y, respectively. In 2010, the emissions of CO2 ranged from 394 to 21,217 ton/y. The emissions of most air pollutants (except for NOx and PM10) and GHGs were estimated to be the highest in taxi-out mode. The highest emissions of NOx and PM10 were emitted from climb-out and approach modes, respectively. In addition, the total LTOs at the 11 small-scale airports accounted for the range of 9.3~9.9% of those at four major international airports in Korea. The total emissions of air pollutants and GHGs at the 11 airports ranged from 4.8 to 12% of those at the four major airports.

본 논문은 순차적인 일국 CGE 모형을 구축하여 국가의 온실가스 저감정책과 연계한 물산업 지원 정책의 경제적 파급효과를 분석하였다. 모형은 물산업과 에너지 부문을 세분화하였으며, 온실가스 저감수단으로 탄소세를 도입하였다. 시나리오는 탄소세수를 가계에 이전하는 경우와 물산업에 지원되는 경우로 구축해 모의결과를 비교분석 하였다. 분석결과 물산업 지원 정책은 GDP 기준 약 0.1% 수준의 온실가스 저감 비용을 절감하고 소비와 투자를 확대하는데 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 물산업의 에너지 집약도가 높기 때문에 탄소세 부과로 인한 에너지 대체, 비에너지 집약적 산업구조 전환에의 기여도는 미미하였다. 따라서 온실가스 저감정책 하에서 물산업 발전을 위해 에너지 효율개선, 친환경 에너지 개발 및 활용 증진 등 비용효율적인 물산업 정책 추진이 중요할 것이다.

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.

온실을 이용한 상온 저장시설의 실용화 가능성을 예측해보고 '창녕대고'와 '터보' 양파의 저장성을 비교해 보고자 3개월간 저온과 상온조건에서 품질변화를 조사하였다. 중량 감소율은 저장기간 동안 지속적으로 증가하였으며 저온저장시 3개월 후 약 2% 정도 감소하였고 상온저장의 경우 약 4% 감소를 나타내었다. 저장 전후의 경도를 비교한 결과 저장 조건 및 품종 간에 따른 유의한 차이는 인정되지 않았으나 수확직후의 경도에 비해 3개월 저장 후 경도가 두 품종 모두 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 양파 외피의 착색정도를 나타내는 Hunter a 값은 두 품종 모두 상온저장한 양파가 저온저장 처리에 비해 높은 값을 나타내었으며 이는 상온저장한 양파의 외피가 건조되면서 착색된 것으로 사료된다. Hunter L 값은 저장조건에 관계없이 저장일수에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 부패율은 상온저장시 창녕대고에 비해 터보 품종이 7.8%로 현저히 낮았으며, 저온 저장시 두 품종 모두 2% 미만의 부패율을 나타났다. 따라서 온실을 이용하여 상온저장 할 경우 저장 가능기간으로는 3개월 이내가 적당할 것으로 예측되며 저장성이 강한 품종을 이용할 경우 저장기간을 더 연장할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum is a major disease problem on wheat and barley in Korea and around the world. We screened for Type II resistance in the greenhouse using single floret inoculation and for Type I resistance in the field using spray inoculation. Sumai 3 was used the FHB resistant check. Three hundred and seventy lines were evaluated for resistance to spread of symptoms within spike (type II). The 2012 field screening with 300 wheat lines was located in Kimjae-si Joeonbuk Korea. All plots were inoculated twice. The first inoculation was applied at anthesis for wheat. The second inoculation was applied three days after the initial inoculation (dai) for each plot. The inoculum was F. graminearum (GZ3639) prepared at a concentration of 100,000 macroconidai/ml with Tween 20 added as a wetting agent. Mist-irrigation was applied from the first inoculation on May 7 till June 7 to facilitate FHB development. FHB severity was assessed visually 21 days after inoculation on 20 arbitrarily selected spikes per plot. FHB severity was determined as the percentage of symptomatic spikelets from the total of all spikelets observed in these 20 spikes. Based on the field test, we could observe four categories of FHB severity: resistant (R: 0-20%), moderately resistant (MR: 21-40%), moderately susceptible (MS: 41-60%), and susceptible (S: 61-100%). The results showed that forty four lines showed the resistant category on FHB severity between 2.7% and 19.8%. In addition, ten lines showed similar FHB severity compared to Sumai 3 (9.9%).

Indirect CO2 effect due to non-methane volatile organic compound (NMVOC) emissions from solvent and product use and fugitive NMVOC emissions from fuels in the Republic of Korea and 13 Annex I countries under United Nations Framework on Climate Change were estimated and the proportions of them to total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions ranged from 0.092% to 0.45% in 2006. Indirect greenhouse effect (CO2, CH4, and O3) were estimated at 13 photochemical assessment monitoring sites in the Republic of Korea using concentrations of 8 NMVOCs of which indirect global warming potential (GWP) were available. The contribution of toluene to mixing ratio was highest at 11 sites and however, the contribution of toluene to indirect greenhouse effect was highest at nine sites. In contrast to toluene, the contributions of ethane, butane, and ethylene were enhanced. The indirect greenhouse effects of ethane and propane, of which ozone formation potentials are the lowest and the third lowest respectively among targeted 10 NMVOCs, ranked first and fourth highest respectively. Acetaldehyde has relatively higher maximum incremental reactivity and is classified as probable human carcinogen however, its indirect GWP ranked second lowest.

When paprika is cultivated during summer season, thrips starts to occur in the early growing season and reaches its peak in late June. In the treatment using Orius laevigatus and Neoseiulus cucumeris, natural enemies to thrips, thrips density was 87.6/trap and 51.31trap on June 23. After Orius laevigatus and Neoseiulus cucumeris were treated twice on June 24 and July 23, the number decreased considerably. On August 23, it was 36.9/trap and 40.3/trap and from the mid August to early September thrips density remained low. Effect of Orius laevigatus and Neoseiulus cucumeris on suppression of thrips density was 35.7% and 44.6% on July 22, however, the number went up to 88.8% and 80.5% on September 3.

The main objective of this experimental investigation was CH4 recovery from biogas generated in municipal and wastewater treatment plant. The polysulfone hollow fiber membrane was prepared in order to investigate the permeation properties of CH4 and CO2. Permeability of CO2 in Polysulfone membrane was 11-fold higher than of CH4 gas. A membrane pilot plant for upgrading biogas was constructed and operated at a municipal wastewater treatment plant. The raw biogas contained 66 ~ 68 Vol % CH4, the balance being mainly CO2. The effect of the operating pressure of feed and permeate side and feed flowrate on CH4 recovery concentration and efficiency were investigated with double stage membrane pilot plant. The CH4 concentration in the retentate stream was raised in these tests to 93 Vol % CH4.

본 연구는 4종의 녹비 작물, hairy vetch, Italian ryegrass, crimson clover, orchard grass 등을 도입하여 연작장해를 일으키는 토마토 시설재배지의 토양개량에 미치는 효과를 구명하였다. 각각의 녹비 작물을 시용한 후, 후 작물로서 토마토를 정식하여 토양의 물리화학성 및 토마토 건물 중 등을 조사하여 녹비작물 재배의 효과 조사하였다. 그 결과 녹비작물 시용에 따라 토양 경도가 감소되었다. Orchard grass와 Italian ryegrass는 토양습도를 증가시키는 요인으로 토양 메트릭스에서 더 많이 무효화 시킬 수 있었다. 녹비작물 시용 2개월 후, Italian ryegrass와 orchard grass 처리구에서 토양 건조 밀도가 감소를 보였으나, 대조구와 녹비구간 통계적 유의성이 인정되지 않았다. 녹비작물로서 Italian ryegrass와 hairy vetch의 시용이 토마토 생육에 영향을 주어 건물중의 증가 및 양호한 생육을 보였다. 또한 orchard grass는 상대적으로 적은 바이오메스인데도 불구하고, 토양 개량에 효과적이었다.

Growth characteristics, root yield and ginsenoside contents of 3-year-old ginseng in greenhouse shaded by 30˚ sloped-curtain made of aluminum were compared to traditional shade facility in order to develop cultural practice for organic ginseng. Light transmittance ratio in greenhouse with 30˚ sloped-curtain shade was distinctly lower than that of traditional shade from sunrise to 9 a.m., while its ratio in greenhouse was higher than traditional shade since 9 a.m. due to the reflection of light. Air temperature of greenhouse was 1.3℃ higher than that of traditional shade on the first ten days of August due to more reflected light. Root yield of greenhouse was 44% higher than that of traditional cultivation because of the inflow of reflected light and the decrease of disease of Alternaria and Anthracnose by blocking rainfall. Dry matter partitioning ratio of rhizome and lateral root were increased in ginseng cultivated at greenhouse due to longer survival time in leaf than traditional cultivation. Total ginsenoside contents cultivated at greenhouse was decreased in the part of taproot, while it was increased in the part of lateral and fine root compare to traditional cultivation. Individual ginsenoside contents between greenhouse and traditional cultivation showed significant difference more frequent in fine root than taproot and lateral root. Total ginsenoside contents including Rb1, Rb2, Rc, Rd, Re, Rf, Rg1, and Rg2 in whole root of 3-year-old ginseng did not showed significant difference by greenhouse and traditional cultivation.

This experiment was conducted to develop optimum sesame cultivation practices as succeeding cropping system of watermelon in the greenhouse condition. We also compared major components in sesame seed cultivated in the greenhouse and open field condition. The adaptable varieties under the greenhouse condition were white sesame 'Pyoungan' and black sesame 'Jinki' which showed higher yield and disease resistance. We also conducted several experiments to determine optimum sowing date, planting density and pinching time. Grain yields were statistically different according to the several sowing dates. In general, sesame sowing on June 30th showed higher grain yields than July 10th, July 20th and July 30th in the greenhouse. We also found out sesame cultivation practice with the row spacing of 40 cm and interplant spacing of 30 cm (a few branch type) or 40 cm (many branch type) showed higher yield than other treatments. Optimum pinching time was 25 days after first flowering in main stem when thousand seed weight and grain yield were highest. In the comparison of major components of sesame at the different cultivation conditions, sesame seeds cultivated in the greenhouse contained 4% much more oil content than open field condition. The lignan compounds, sesamin and sesamolin were also higher by 6% in the greenhouse than open field condition. It was concluded that sesame cultivation practices as succeeding cropping system of watermelon in the greenhouse condition guaranteed higher grain yield with less labor input which is now emerging alternative farming practice system in present aging rural society and will also give sesame cultivation farmers to increase net income in Korea.

The purpose of the study is to investigate factors influencing the adoption of environment-friendly agriculture in greenhouse vegetable production of Jeonnam province. An interview survey were conducted during 2008, including six counties: Gwansanku of Gwangju, Gwangyang, Goheung, Damyang, Boseong, and Suncheon. Major crops grown in surveyed area were green peppers, cucumbers, strawberries, cherry tomatoes, tomatoes, and watermelons. Logit model results show that adopters of environment-friendly agriculture are more likely to participate in extensional education programs, attend educational programs on environment-friendly agriculture, have greater cultivated acreage, and have larger agriculture-only-designated farmland. However the adopters are less likely to have greater number of family members participating in farming, and live Goheung county. Efforts should be made in extensional education programs to lead more vegetable growers to adopt environment-friendly agriculture. Policy makers’ additional efforts should be followed to increase adoption rate of environment-friendly agriculture in lower adopted areas.

최근 지구 환경 문제의 심각성이 대두되면서, 전과정 평가(Life Cycle Assessment)에 대한 선박 적용 연구가 조금씩 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 선박 LCA 연구의 일환으로 선박 배기 가스 분석을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 화물선에 대한 온실 배기 가스 배출 분석을 수행하였다. 대상 선박은 벌크선박과 유조선 등 2척을 모델로 삼았으며 과거 수년간의 실적 데이터를 분석하여 운항인벤토리 중 온실 배출가스의 정략적 데이터를 분석하였다. 이 분석을 통하여 화물선 운송 시 화물 1톤을 1마일 수송하는데 배출되는 배기 가스량의 분석을 시도하였다.
