In this study, the characteristics of air pollutant emissions from ships' engines have been investigated by conducting E2 and E3 cycle mode tests. A engine 360Ps (Doosan L126TIH engine) and 400kW dynamometer Horiba-Schenck were utilized for engine tests. The FTIR analyzer and SPC were used to measure exhaust gas (NOx, SOx etc.) and PM (particulate matter), respectively. The results showed that the emissions of THC and CO produced from engine were increased with the increase of sulfur content in fuel oils at E2 and E3 cycle modes. The kinetic viscosity of the fuel increased as the sulfur content of the fuel increased, thereby the specific fuel oil consumption (SFC) of the engine improved. This result is considered to be due to improved combustion conditions due to increased average diameters of sprayed particles and due to increased kinetic viscosity under constant fuel injection pressure in this study. In the case of NOx emission, this study showed no significant change in amount of sulfur content.

제로 에미션(zero emission)이란 영어를 뜻대로 번역하면 "배출을 없게 한다"라고 할 수 있다. 그러나, 이는 현재까지의 기술로 대기오염의 배출영역까지 제로화는 불가능하므로 이 부분을 포함시키는 것은 적합하지 않고, 유상이던 무상이던 매립되는 최종 처분량인 배출물(폐기물)을 제로화 시키는 운동으로 정의되고 있다. 즉, 대상으로 하는 산업에서 발생하는 배출물을 다른 산업의 자원으로 재이용(recycling)하고, 산업 관련망으로 배출물이 나오지 않게 네트워크 시스템을 구축하는 일종의 환경운동으로 이해하면 좋을 것이다.(중략)

지구온난화와 환경오염을 줄일 수 있는 하나의 방안으로 고연비의 경유를 사용하는 운송수단이 각광을 받아왔으나, 입자상 오염물질 및 질소산화물 배출량의 증가 등 경유 차량의 이용에도 문제점이 드러나고 있다. 주요 선진국들이 이와 관련한 규제를 강화함에따라 이에 대응할 수 있는 기술 개발이 요구되는 가운데 녹색 기술 개발을 이끄는 국가핵융합연구소는 플라즈마를 활용한 경유 차량의 후처리장치 개발을 추진하고 있다.

석탄화력발전소에서는 다양한 유해물질이 발생한다 먼지, 미세먼지, 유해중금속, 황산화물(SOx), 질산화물(NOx) 등이 그것인데, 이중 황산화물과 질산화물등은 기존 방지장치로 비교적 제어가 용이하다. 반면에, 미세먼지와 유해중금속은 대기중으로 상당량이 배출되어 인체에 심각한 피해를 끼치고 있다. 우리나라 대기환경보전법에서는 대기오염물질을 가스상 물질과 입자상 물질로 구분하고 있다. 이중 입자상물질은 그 입도의 분포가 수십 나노미터에서 수십 마이크론까지 광범위하고 입도에 따른 환경위해성도 다르다. (중략)

생활폐기물의 처리방법에는 매립, 소각, 재활용 둥이 있으나, 우리나라의 경우에는 매립에 의한 처리량이 전체의 47%(2000년 현재)에 이르는 등 주로 매립에 의하여 처리한다. 그런데 생활폐기물 매립장에서 발생되는 매립가스는 심한 악취와 대기오염을 발생시키고 인근주민들의 민원을 자주 유발하게 되어 심각한 사회문제로 대두되고 있다. (중략)

서울의 시정장애 현상은 80년 이후부터 계속 심화되고 있어 ‘서울 스모그’라는 새로운 용어를 탄생시키기에 이르렀다. 서울 스모그 발생은 가정용 연료의 연소와 노천소각에 의한 일부 원인과 함께, 대부분은 자동차 배출물질에 의해 유발되는 광화학 스모그는 미세한 입자상 물질에 의해 복합적으로 나타나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 서울지역의 자동차로부터 배출되는 오염비중은 1991년 54.4％에서 매년 증가하며 1997년부터 85％를 넘어섰다. (중략)

With the development of remote sensing technology, it becomes possible to measure the trace gas concentration by satellites, so the ministry of environment is executing 152.5 billion-won to develop the geostationary orbital environment monitoring satellite and ground segment. A variety of contents for the application to utilize environmental satellite has been sought to increase the benefits. This study is for the improvement the accuracy of emission inventories, to correct emission amount with top-down method using the satellite observing data instead of bottom-up method. Two methodologies to estimate $NO_2$ emission were analyzed, one is ignoring $NO_2$ transportation effect(method-1), and the other is considering transportation effect(method-2) with source-receptor relationship equation, and the results were compared. The methodology of this study can be applicable all components which are observed from satellites.

In the Seoul metropolitan area (SMA), transportation sector is the largest source of air pollutant emissions. Of the total amount of air pollutant emissions in the SMA, about 52% of the particulate matter emissions and 59% of the nitrogen oxide emissions are from superannuated heavy diesel vehicles. To lessen the air pollutant emissions from superannuated heavy vehicles in the SMA, this study devised several strategies for operating Environmental Zone (EZ) program, which requires superannuated heavy diesel vehicles to install reduction equipments as well as restricts them entering part of the SMA, and evaluated the effects of different strategies on air pollution in the SMA. By using the Korean traffic statistics, an evaluation has been made of six EZ scenarios, which were devised by different target areas and vehicles. The results showed that the EZ program with retrofitting a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) equipment to 7-year-old heavy diesel vehicles and early scrapping of pre-1998 heavy diesel vehicles is the most efficient alternative in terms of air pollution reduction. In addition, the results showed that the magnitude of air pollution reduction increases when implementing the EZ program to all entering superannuated heavy diesel vehicles to the SMA rather than registered ones in the SMA.

This study was carried out to measure atmospheric environmental improvement effect and estimate its social benefit of thermal power plants through Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for quantitative analysis about operational performances of EIA. In this study, 'EIA outcome' is defined as whether or not the system is implemented, therefore, environmental standard to be followed by each project and consultation contents were compared. In total 60 cases of thermal power plant construction projects that have been consulted over the past 10 years since 2010, major air pollutants have been significantly reduced after the implementation of EIA. The $PM_{10}$ reduced annual 3,745 tons, $NO_2$ by 74,569 tons, and $SO_2$ by 37,647 tons, which were estimated at approximately 240 billion won~5 trillion 967 billion won per year for social benefit. This means the total cost of power plant operations will be cut to 7 trillion 192 billion won~178 trillion 994 billion won over a 30-year period. The reduced amount of air pollutants emitted by energy generation facilities across the country is worth 50%, and its economic value is larger than the annual Current Health Expenditure in Korea. This is meant by the fact that all projects are subject to uniform criteria under the existing relevant regulation, but that each project plans are optimized according to the characteristics of target areas and projects through the process of EIA.
