초록

인천광역시에서 배출되는 종량제봉투 안에는 재활용 가능자원이 4.5% (알루미늄캔류 0.2%, 철캔류 2.5%, 유리류 1.8%), 에너지회수가 가능한 자원이 92.5% (종이류 23.0%, 플라스틱류 15.5%, 가연성 기타류 54.0%) 및 매립이 필요한 불연성 기타류가 3.0%로 분석되었다. 알루미늄캔류, 철캔류 및 유리류는 기존의 매립처리보다 재활용처리가 효과적이며, 종이류와 플라스틱류는 기존의 단순 소각처리보다 폐기물 고형원료 (SRF)로 만들어 에너지회수처리하는 편이 더 효과적이고, 가연성 기타류는 기존의 단순 소각처리가 재활용처리보다 효과적이다. 본 연구에서 제안한 폐자원별 처리방안을 적용하면 2,068,948 Million Btu의 에너지가 절감되고, 21,008 $MTCO_2E$의 온실가스가 저감되는 것으로 분석되었다. 총 에너지 절감량을 경제적 효과로 환산하면 연간 약 422억 원의 비용절감 효과가 있으며, 총 온실가스 저감량을 승용차의 이산화탄소 배출량으로 환산하면 연간 약 4,119대의 운행감축 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 종량제봉투 내 가연성 물질의 저위발열량은 종이류 1,936 kcal/kg, 플라스틱류 5,079 kcal/kg, 가연성 기타류 2,462 kcal/kg로 분석되었다. 종이류와 플라스틱류를 적절하게 혼합한다면 SRF로 활용이 가능하고, 가연성 기타류는 저위발열량이 고형연료 기준을 충족시키지 못하고 구성성분들이 폐기물 고형연료로 사용하기엔 부적절하였다.

A standard plastic garbage bag which was discarded from Incheon Metropolitan City was composed of 4.5% recyclable resources (aluminum cans 0.2%, steel cans 2.5%, glass 1.8%), 92.5% resources with recoverable energy (papers 23.0%, plastics 15.5%, combustible etc. 54.0%) and 3.0% non-combustible etc. Recycling is more effective than landfilling for aluminum cans, steel cans, and glass. The energy recovery process using solid refuse fuel (SRF) is more effective than incineration for papers and plastics. Incineration is more effective than recycling for combustible etc. 2,068,948 Million Btu of total energy savings and 21,008 $MTCO_2E$ of total GHG reductions were obtained by the application of the proposed scheme. The total energy savings were equivalent to an economic benefit of 422 billion won per year. The total GHG reductions were equivalent to a GHG benefit of 4,119 passenger cars not running per year. The lower calorific value of the combustible materials was obtained to be 1,936 kcal/kg of papers, 5,079 kcal/kg of plastics and 2,462 kcal/kg of combustible other resources, respectively. If papers and plastics are properly mixed, the mixture can be used as SRF. The lower calorific value of combustible other resources does not meet the quality criteria for refuse derived fuel, therefore its components are inappropriate to used as solid refuse fuel.
