A turbo engine is used to improve engine volumetric efficiency by using the energy of exhaust gas with a device such as a turbocharger. Recently, it has been attracting attention as a solution for responding to environmental issues such as exhaust gas regulation, and its use is being expanded to gasoline and CNG engines as well as diesel engines. However, as electric and hydrogen vehicles enter the automotive market more rapidly, traditional turbo engines also confront many challenges. In this paper, to examine the current status and prospects of the turbo engine, we analyze the related patents in the turbo engine field applied to patent offices in seven major countries, including Korea, USA, China, Japan, Germany, France, and the European Union Patent Office, and analyze the patent application trend. Using ‘the pie’ system of Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), family patents were refined, patent application trends were diagnosed, and the technology and market competitiveness of major applicants were compared and analyzed. Even within the turbo engine market, where traditional automakers and turbocharger manufacturer participate, it was possible to examine the dynamic changes in the market through the analysis of technology and market competitiveness. The main companies leading the technology and market aspects and the companies specialized in the technology and market aspects were observed.
A non-pneumatic tire (NPT), unlike a pneumatic tire, is a tire that acts as air pressure with spokes, and has the advantage of not requiring maintenance of air pressure and the risk of puncture of the pneumatic tire. Recently, many technological advances are taking place in non-pneumatic tire (NPT) using artificial intelligence technology, and non-pneumatic tire manufacturers are actively conducting research and development. Here, in order to compare and analyze the technological competitiveness of major patent applicants, non-pneumatic tire-related patents that have been applied for Japan, the United States, China, Korea, Germany, France, and the European Union Patent Office are reviewed through the patent applications of global tire manufacturers.
The technology competitions of automobile manufacturers are getting hot. The characteristics of the environment friendly automobile are not only lowering the emission of harmful exhaust gas through the change of the power source, but also paying great attention to improvement of the power efficiency. As the market for pure electric vehicles continues to grow, we have analyzed the global technology competitiveness by DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) patents. Clustering can be classified into five types ; 1) a cluster associated with a dual clutch transmission system, 2) a cluster of a torque transmission device and a reverse speed ratio, 3) a cluster of co-planar sets and dual clutch assemblies related to transmitting devices, 4) Device clusters, and 5) a cluster of synchronizers and clusters to prevent simultaneous operation of dual clutch transmissions. In recent years, demand for pure electric vehicles has been rapidly increasing, and patent applications related to DCT have been steadily increasing for energy efficiency of motor power sources.

제올라이트 분리막은 알루미나 등 다공성 지지체 표면에 3차원적으로 서로 연결된 주기적인 미세기공을 갖는 제올라이트 층을 치밀하게 코팅한 복합 소재이다. 현재 LTA, FAU, CHA 제올라이트 분리막이 투과증발 분야에서 상업화되었고 이는 PVA 판형 막에 비하여 현저한 물 투과도와 물/알코올 선택도를 갖기 때문이다. 국내의 경우도 ㈜파인텍에서 LTA 제올라이트 분리막과 시스템이 사업화되었다. 최근 제올라이트 분리막을 이산화탄소 포집, 수소 회수 등 기체분 리에 이용하려는 연구가 시도되고 있다. 제올라이트 분리막은 고분자 분리막에 비하여 가격이 비싸다고 알려져 있으나 원자재 측면에서 보면 오히려 저렴할 수 있다. 대량 생산, 생산 공정 개선 등이 이루어진다면 폴리머 분리막과 대등 한 가격경쟁력을 가질 것이 예상된다.

우리나라는 기술혁신을 통한 글로벌 기술경쟁력 제고를 위해 연구개발(R&D) 에 대한 투자를 꾸준히 증대시켜왔다. 우리나라의 GDP 대비 연구개발투자 비중은 4.15%로 세계 1위 수준이며, 4년 연속 무역규모 1조 달러를 달성하였다. 그러나 이와 같은 노력에도 불구하고 국가 간 기술경쟁력을 가늠하는 중요한 척도인 기술무역수지는 OECD 국가들 가 운데 최하위 수준이며 만성적인 적자를 기록하고 있다.
본 논문에서는 우리나라의 기술무역수지 개선방안을 강구하기 위한 연구를 수행하고자 하 였다. 먼저, 기술무역에 대한 개념과 현황을 파악하였으며, 기술무역과 상품무역 간 비교를 통해 기술무역의 중요성을 검토하였다. 그동안 기술무역 관련 연구가 일부 수행되었지만, 기술무역에 있어 가장 중요한 역할을 담당하는 기업의 입장에서 기술무역에 대한 인식을 파악 하기 위한 연구는 제대로 수행되지 못하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기술무역 실적 보유 기업 과 미보유 기업을 구분하고 기업의 실제적인 인식 및 실태를 파악하기 위한 설문조사를 수행 하였다.
설문조사 결과, 기술무역 실적 보유기업과 미보유 기업 간에는 최고의사결정권자의 인지 도 측면에서 큰 차이를 보였으며, 기술무역 전담부서와 전담직원의 부족이 매우 심각함을 파 악할 수 있었다. 또한 기술무역 관련 교육의 필요성을 절실히 느끼고 있음에도 불구하고 이 에 대한 교육 이수 경험은 불과 10%에도 미치지 못하는 것으로 조사되었다.
아울러 본 연구에서는 선행연구에 대한 심도 있는 고찰 및 산업계 실태조사 등을 토대로 기술무역 통계조사 방법론 개선, 사회적 인식 제고, 기술수출 활동 유인을 위한 정부의 정책 적 지원, 기술무역 관련 인프라 구축 및 전문인력 양성을 위한 교육과정 개설 등의 개선방안 을 제시하였다.
