Abstract

This study focuses on the sustainable development and intelligence information society, analyzing the results of science and technology forecasts from Korea and Japan for 2040-2050. Future geological environment and disaster technologies are presented, such as base geology, geophysical geological disaster, weather adjustment, $CO_2$ reduction, environmental disaster, and smart ecocity developments. For the future technologies in energy and resources technology, space resources development and nuclear fusion will be realized by 2040 and 2050. Moreover, new material and resource technologies will be applied to replace existing energy and mineral resources by 2040. Japan has introduced intelligent information viewpoints and presented new technologies.

연구는 지속가능발전과 지능정보사회의 미래트렌드에 주목하여 2040~2050년 지질자원기술 관련 분야를 예측할 수 있는 한국과 일본의 과학기술예측조사 결과를 분석하였다. 지질자원기술 관련 분야로 지질환경 재해 기술과 에너지 자원 기술 분야로 구분하여 분석하였다. 한국과 일본의 지질환경 재해 분야 미래기술은 기반지질, 지구물리학적 지질재해, 기상조정 $CO_2$ 저감, 환경재해(방사성 폐기물 처분 포함), 스마트에코시티(자급자족 도시)로 제시된다. 에너지 자원 기술 분야 미래기술은 핵융합 발전이 2050년 정도에 실현되며, 2040년 정도에는 소행성 등 우주자원 개발 및 우주유인기지 구축이 실현될 것으로 보았다. 또한 2040년에는 신재료 신자원기술이 적용되어 기존의 에너지자원과 광물자원을 대체할 것으로 보인다. 일본은 지능정보사회 관점을 대대적으로 도입하여, 지질자원 분야 관련 분야에서도 새로운 관점의 기술들을 제시하고 있다.
