The purpose of this study is to use the hybrid steam-solvent process, because it is created in the form of water, bitumen, and water/bitumen emulsion by hot steam, so effective separation is required. Methods for separating the emulsion include a chemical separation method by adding a chemical, a separation method using an electrostatic property, a separation method using a membrane, a separation method using a microwave, and the like. Among them, the most used method is the separation method using a chemical, and it is reported that the separation efficiency of the emulsion is the best. In this study, a method for efficiently separating bitumen emulsions using a chemical separation method adding an emulsifier was investigated. In particular, technological trends in oil sand oil treatment technology were analyzed based on patent analysis.

신선 버섯의 수확 후 관리 기술은 2000년대까지 출원의 증가와 감소를 반복하는 경향을 보이다가 2010년대에 들어서 꾸준한 증가세를 나타내고 있어, 신선 농산물의 수확 후 관리 기술이 시대의 흐름에 부합하는 기술임을 알 수 있다. 주요 출원인에 대한 특허출원은 일본이 전체 출원 중에서 가장 많은 특허를 출원하였으며 대부분의 국가에서 내국인의 특허출원 비중이 높게 나타나 자국 중심의 출원 경향을 보이고 있다. 신선 버섯의 수확 후 포장 기술은 초반에 출원인 및 출원 건수가 감소하였다가, 최근 출원인 및 출원 건수가 증가하여 회복기 단계에 있으며, 저장기술은 최근 출원인 수와 출원 건수가 대폭 증가하여 성장기의 단계로 평가된다. 신선 버섯의 수확 후 관리 기술은 주로 다국적 기업과 국가 연구기관에서 다수의 특허를 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 해당 기술의 연구개발 및 상업화가 활발하게 이루어지고 있음을 시사하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 미국, 유럽에 출원된 기후기술관련 특허의 특성을 분석하고 지재권 소송경향을 파악하여 우수한 기후기술에 대한 지재권 제도가 원활하게 활용되도록 제언함에 있다. 기후변화관련 유효특허 중 기술 분류상에서는 감축기술이, 국가별로는 미국이 유럽보다 더 많은 비중을 차지하고 있었다. 기후변화 감축, 적응, 리스크 예측 등 기후기술영역별로 지재권의 보호를 통해 배타적인 권리를 부여하는 것은 발명의 진흥에는 도움이 되지만 기술공유에는 장애가 될 여지도 있다. 이에, 특허법상 특허권 이전 및 공유에 대한 제도를 활용하거나, 「기후변화적응법」(안),「환경기술 및 환경산업 지원법」,등의 제·개정을 통한 제도적인 보완책도 가능하다. 또한 기후변화 관련 소송에 있어 최근의 주요한 소송전략으로서 공공신탁이론을 활용한 사례와 헌법 및 인권주장의 사용한 사례를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 2015년을 기점으로 공공신탁이론과 헌법 및 인권주장이 기후변화 소송에 사용되고 그러한 주장이 법원에 의해 받아들여지면서 개별국가의 책임성이 보다 강조되고 있다. 이런 경향성에 따라 각국은 기후변화에 대처하는 다양한 정책을 개발할 필요성이 제기되고 있는데, 지적재산권과 관련하여서도 새로운 특허개발의 촉진ᆞ개발된 특허의 국가간 이전 등 다양한 정책방안이 마련될 토대가 형성되는 상황이다. 국가책임을 강조하는 현 소송경향을 반영하여, 특허매입 및 실시권 제도의 활용, 자유실시 제도, 강제실시권의 적용 폭을 넓힌다면 범지구적 기후변화 문제를 해결할 기후기술의 지재권을 보호하면서도 기술공유의 공익성도 증진시킬 것으로 판단된다.

The balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) has been used as food material and traditional medicine in Asia. Using 1,603 valid patents from 6 countries, we analyzed the patent trend based on year, countries, applicants, and technology. The technologies are categorized into 6 groups which include material, additives, manufacture, cultivation, breeding and seed. The technology competitiveness of countries were analyzed with quantitative factors such as cites per patent, patent impact index, patent family size and technology strength. In comparison with other countries in the patent index, South Korea shows an increasing trend in patent numbers and total leverage ability, although the individual technology is lower than Japan and USA. Our study provides information on technical trend to support the performance of new projects on balloon flower.

The basic instrument for oral hygiene is toothbrush. Many patents that are announced to enhance efficiency and convenience by changing shape and using new material. There are also patents regarding its various functions. This study, the purpose of study, was surveyed the toothbrush patents from 2005 to 2014. The patent search was done in site 'kipris' using keyword ‘toothbrush’. Among sorts of administrative measure, enrollment and extinction patents was searched, followed by classified patents into its shape, materials, function and electronic toothbrush. For the patents with function, detailed analysis was done. Total numbers of toothbrush patents decreased in 2006 to 2008, lowest in 2008, and steadily increased to 2014. The patents regarding shape was outnumbered material. Shape and material patents could be divided by handle portion and head portion patents, which patents of head portion is more than handle portion. The patents of function could be classified into certain situation or combinate functions to its natural function. Function patents increase with the ratio of total patents. For brush patents, they have a tendence of increase. In addition, from a shape and function, toothbrush patents going to be more variable. It choose small quantity batch production. From a shape of toothbrush, patents regarding head portion are going to increase. And it has a tendency to change the shape rather than the development of materials for efficiency of toothbrushing. Electronic toothbrush will be placed certain position, however, conventional toothbrush also will place large portion by estimating patent number and there be more progressive. Some patents will catch popularity like combination of brush and paste, replacement of brush head, attraction for toothbrushing, and hygiene tooth brush. Also disposable toothbrush and portable toothbrush are getting popularity along with social phenomenon.

As recognized by all scientific and industrial groups, carbon dioxide(CO2) capture and storage(CCS) could play an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Especially carbon capture technology by dry sorbent is considered as a most energy-efficient method among the existing CCS technologies. Patent analysis has been considered to be a necessary step for identifying technological trend and planning technology strategies. This paper is aimed at identifying evolving technology trend and key indicators of dry sorbent from the objective information of patents. And technology map of key patents is also presented. In this study the patents applied in korea, japan, china, canada, US, EU from 1993 to 2013 are analyzed. The result of patent analysis could be used for R&D and policy making of domestic CCS industry.

This study was conducted to determine the major patent and analyze the patent trend of unmanned and automated agricultural production for the open field operation. As a result of conducting a search for patent applications related to these technologies, 1,080 valid patents were selected by evaluating the relevance of the patents and removing noise patents. As a result of the country-based analysis using the selected valid patents, it was found out that the largest number of patent applications were filed in the United States with 541 cases, followed by Japan with 326 cases, the European Union with 128 cases, and Korea with 85 cases. Upon classifying the valid patents into core technology, the path generation and tracking technology accounts for 33% with 353 cases; the implementing control with environmental condition technology accounts for 22% with 236 cases; the robot design technology accounts for 21% with 228 cases; the plant and environment sensing technology accounts for 19% with 206 cases; the yield and quality monitoring technology accounts for 5% with 58 cases. Finally, 10 core patents were selected by performing a patent index evaluation. The United States registered all of the 10 core patents. The results showed that Korea falls behind in the open field-related unmanned and automated agricultural production, compared to other developed agricultural countries.

In this paper, patent trend on the rapid prototyping technologies is analyzed.

The Omija (Schizandra chinensis Baillon) is a fruit native to northeast Asia that is cultivated in South Korea and China. Using 1,938 valid patents of 6 group countries, we analyzed the patent trend based on year, countries, applicants, and technology. The technologies are categorized the 10 sub-technologies such as medicine, quasi-drugs, food, feed, cosmetics, cultivation, genome, manufacture, preprocessing, and etc. The technology level and competitiveness are analyzed using patent index such as cites per patent, patent impact index, patent family size and technology strength. In Korea, patent number rapidly increasing and individual technical level is lower than other countries. However, overall technical competitiveness is estimated high due to multiple patents. We suggest that cosmetics and cultivation fields are most likely to be developed in future omiza technology development in Korea. Our study will provides to the information of technical trend to support performing of new projects for Omija plant.
