Abstract

Realization of zero waste society, which includes reduction, recycling and reuse of waste, has been a huge issue in Korea recently, and many experts are proposing various improvement plans in the establishment of political system. In particular, the current EPR system is partially agreed on its external achievement, but many problems are arising from the enforcement of the system. Therefore, flexible revisions and modifications on recycling policy are necessary. In order to understand the insufficiency and problem of the expansion of items in current EPR system, this study examined the actual generation and basic unit in small, medium and large-scale apartment complexes in B City and predicted the items that do not appear in the statistics to compare and analyze the problems in current recycling based on their result value; a survey was conducted on 137 experts and students of relevant major that live in B City on the items of EPR system and their perceptions to indicate the error in the necessity of items in EPR system that are generally underperceived by people and the error of current recycling system, and solution plans were sought to establish smooth future system.

본 연구에 있어서 현 EPR제도의 확대 품목의 부족성 및 문제점을 파악하기 위하여 B시의 소, 중, 대규모 별 아파트의 현장조사를 통하여 실질적인 발생량과 원단위를 파악하고 통계자료에 나타나지 않는 품목들을 예측하여 그에 따른 결과값으로 현재 이루어지는 재활용 분리수거의 문제점을 비교하고 분석하였으며 이를 뒷받침하기 위하여 B시에 거주하는 전문가 및 전문분야 학생 137명을 대상으로 EPR제도 품목 및 인식여부에 대한 설문조사를 실시하여 일반적으로 사람들 인식에 부족한 EPR제도 품목의 필요성 및 현 재활용 분리배출의 시스템의 오류를 지적하였고 향후 원활하고 지향적인 시스템 구축을 위한 해결 방안을 모색하였다.
