This research evaluated the environmental impact of polyethylene water supply pipe which is a target of voluntary agreement by Waste Charge System using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). When analyzing the contribution of each impact category to the environmental score, resource depletion had the highest contribution at 57% and it was followed by global warming with 35% of contribution. Amongst the entire process and stage, production of raw materials, production of goods and disposal had about 60%, 18% and 18% of contribution, respectively. For resource depletion which was found to have the highest contribution, production of raw materials, production of goods and disposal accounted for nearly 77%, 11% and 7% of it, and the impact category of resource depletion which belongs to production of raw materials accounted for nearly 44% of the whole environmental score. Here, it was found that 88% of it resulted from crude oil. When analyzing the contribution of each stage to global warming that is the key issue of low carbon green growth, then, production of raw materials, production of goods and disposal showed around 38%, 29% and 28% of contribution, respectively. As the result, production of goods and disposal had higher contributions than resource depletion. Electricity used for production of goods is the major cause of global warming, and electricity used in the recycling process and incineration occupied about 65% and 36% of the disposal stage. In conclusion, we need to seek for plans to reduce the use of electricity through optimization of energy use during the production of goods and disposal, in order to establish an environmental and economical competitiveness of PE-related enterprises that are operated on a small scale.
이 연구에서는 시멘트계 광물로 제조된 그라우트의 사용에 의해 발생되는 환경문제인 pH의 증가와 중금속오염을 MC계와 킬레이트고분자를 이용하여 평가하고자 하였다. 그라우트 재료로 보통포틀랜드시멘트와 슬래그시멘트를 사용하였고 급결재로 칼슘알루미네이트계 급결성재료의 혼합물을 사용하였으며, 중금속과 pH의 발생을 방지하기 위해 증점제를 사용하였다. 측정결과, 킬레이트고분자를 사용할 경우에 그라우트에 의한 pH의 증가가 최소화되었으며 중금속(Cr6+)은 용출되지 않았다. 그 이외의 경우에는 pH의 증가와 중금속 용출이 뚜렷이 증가하였다. 또한, 재령에 따른 중금속 발생량은 용출시험 1일에서 전 용출량의 약 97% 이상이 용출되었고 이후는 추가 발생되지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구의 결과로부터 pH의 증가와 Cr6+과 같은 중금속의 용출을 제어하기 위해서 BSC와 킬레이트고분자를 사용하는 것이 아주 유용함을 알 수 있었다.
This study aims to produce fundamental database for Environment Impact Assessment by monitoring vertical structure of the atmosphere due to the mountain valley wind in spring season. For this, we observed surface and upper meteorological elements in Sangin-dong, Daegu using the rawinsonde and automatic weather system(AWS). In Sangin-dong, the weather condition was largely affected by mountains when compared to city center. The air temperature was low during the night time and day break, and similar to that of city center during the day time. Relative humidity also showed similar trend; high during the night time and day break and similar to that of city center during the day time. Solar radiation was higher than the city, and the daily maximum temperature was observed later than the city. The synoptic wind during the measurement period was west wind. But during the day time, the west wind was joined by the prevailing wind to become stronger than the night time. During the night time and daybreak, the impact of mountain wind lowered the overall temperature, showing strong geographical influence. The vertical structure of the atmosphere in Dalbi valley, Sangin-dong had a sharp change in air temperature, relative humidity, potential temperature and equivalent potential temperature when measured at the upper part of the mixing layer height. The mixing depth was formed at maximum 1896m above the ground, and in the night time, the inversion layer was formed by radiational cooling and cold mountain wind.
In Korean coastal areas, land reclamations are main development projects that should be based on environmental impact assessment(EIA), because those human interventions can change coastlines, damage tidal flats, and pollute adjacent areas to threat seafood safety and devaluate overall ecosystem service value. Existing procedures of the EIA for land reclamation projects were diagnosed and evaluated to enhance them. Problems were identified in the designation of survey areas, the consistency in survey sites and periods, the standardization of survey methods and reports, the confidence of survey results and the verification of predictions. Lack of integration was noticeable and could be improved by synthesizing different assessments from topography․geography, marine physics, marine chemistry and marine biology. We suggest that successful precautionary marine environment management requires readjusting the cost of EIA, recruiting experts in marine environment, constructing database and establishing specialized assessment system.
금번 연구에서는 금호강의 금호 수위관측소 지점에서 영천댐 건설에 따른 유황분석을 하였다. 분석 결과, 영천댐 건설 전에는 갈수랑 , 저수량 , 평수랑 , 풍수량 이었으나, 건설 후에는 갈수량이 , 저수랑 , 평수량 , 풍수량 으로 유황이 상당히 열악해 진 것으로 분석되었다. 유지유량 증분법의 물리적 서식처모의 모형을 적용하여 피라미의 성장단계별 가중된 가용면적-유량 관계곡선을 작성하였다. 이 관계곡선으로 유지 가능일 수를 초과확률로 가중된 가용면적의
사용후핵연료의 효율적인 관리를 위하여 원자력연구소에서 개발중인 사용후핵연료 차세대관리 종합공정(ACP)은 공정타당성연구 단계를 마치고 이의 실증을 위한 - type핫셀 건설 단계에 이르렀다. 핫셀의 설계에 앞서 사용후핵 연료를 취급하게 되는 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 방사능에 대한 환경영향평가를 정상운전 시와 사고발생 시로 나누어 수행하였다. 평가에 필요한 자료들은 공정의 개념설계 보고서와 최근 연구소부지 기상 테이터 및 부지특성 자료를 바탕으로 하였으며 기존의 유사한 시설에 대한 평가방법을 참조하였다. 각 핵종별 발생량과 방출량을 계산하여 피폭선량을 계산하였으며 평가결과 원자력법관련 규제기준과 핫셀이 위치하게 되는 IMEF 건물의 안전성분석 기준보다 매우 안전한 결과를 얻어 시설 운영에 대한 안전성을 확보하였다.
