In this study, municipal solid waste (MSW) has collected 3 times and physico-chemical analysis has done. Nitrous oxide emissions from MSW incineration plant were measured continuously by EPA Method 18 and it was compared with the emission by calculation using the emission factor. The $N_2O$ emission of MSW incineration plant was more than twice as large as the emission by calculation. It was found that the installation of abatement facilities in MSW incineration plant is effective in achieving the greenhouse reduction targets and it can be ensure economical efficiency through emission trading system.

In this study, nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) emission concentration was measured 3 times continuously for 24 hours from August 27, 2018 to October 22, 2018 and non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) spectrometer was used to calculate $N_2O$ concentration of exhaust gas from municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerator. As a result of $N_2O$ emission characteristics, it is estimated that $N_2O$ emission concentration is due to the difference of furnace temperature, oxygen concentration rather than the chemical component of waste. The measured $N_2O$ emission concentration of MSW incinerator was obtained in the range of 53.6 ~ 59.5 ppm and the total average concentration was measured 55.6 ppm. Therefore, the amount of $N_2O$ emissions calculated from the $N_2O$ concentration was $98.05kg\;day^{-1}$ on average and the amount of $N_2O$ distribution in the range of $90.41{\sim}108.44kg\;day^{-1}$ was obtained. As a result, the $N_2O$ emission factor of the MSW incinerator was estimated to be $1,066.13g_{N_2O}\;ton_{waste^{-1}}$. The estimated $N_2O$ emission factor of the MSW incinerator was 20 times higher than calculated emission factor used in the Tier 2 method. Consequently, it is considered that the method of calculating the amount of $N_2O$ emission in the MSW incineration facilities using waste type and incineration amount needs to be supplemented to ensure accuracy.

현재 우리나라는 1980년대 후반부터 도시폐기물 소각시설을 설치하기 시작하여 전국적으로 20 여곳의 대형 소각장이 가동되고 있으며 대기오염 방지 기술도 발전에 발전을 거듭하여 불과 10 여년 동안에 선진국 수준의 대기오염 배출기준을 만족하는데 아무 문제가 없을 정도로 되었다. 그러나 소각후 발생 하는 소각재의 경우 비산재는 고형화등의 처리 후 매립하고 바닥재는 별도 처리없이 매립하는 실정이어서 매립 후 시간이 흐를수록 매립된 소각재에서 용출되는 다이옥신과 소각재 중에 포함된 중금속 등에 의한 토양오염과 수질오염의 우려가 남아 있는 것이 사실이다. 소각후 남는 소각재는 폐기물량의 약 15 %, 비산재는 약 1.5 % 정도 발생하는 것으로 볼 때 매립은, 특히 다음 세대에 유산으로 남겨진다는 점에서 더 이상 적절하지 않은 해결책으로 생각되며 유럽과 일본 등 선진국에서는 이미 이와 같은 소각재에 대한 무해화 처리기술이 개발되고 속속 상용화되고 있으므로 우리나라도 하루빨리 열분해용융시설등 신기술을 개발하거나 도입하여 세계적 환경 기술경쟁 에서 선진국과 어깨를 나란히 함은 물론 청정한 국토를 후손에게 물려줄 수 있도록 하는 대책이 강구되어 야 할 것이다. 본 고에서는 폐기물 처리기술의 세계 적 동향을 살펴보고 폐기물의 완전 자원화에 성공한 대우 써모셀렉트 열분해용융 기술의 특성에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

This study was carried out to investigate the emission characteristics of volatile metals(Hg, As, Se) and semi volatile metals such as Pb from small and medium size municipal solid waste incinerators(MSWIs). The concentrations of Hg, Pb, As and Se in emission gas from small size waste incinerators were higher than those of medium size waste incinerators. This is probably due to less air pollutant control devices and high emission gas temperature of the small size waste incinerators relative to the medium size waste incinerators. Emission gas temperature from small and medium size waste incinerators were divided into 2 groups. The first group was about $100^{\circ}C$ and the second roup in the range of $400{\sim}700^{\circ}C$. The concentrations of emission gas at the second group were Hg $70.43\;{\mu}g/Sm^3$, Pb $0.94\;{\mu}g/Sm^3$, As $9.83\;{\mu}g/Sm^3$ and Se $5.05\;{\mu}g/Sm^3$. The concentrations of Hg, Pb, As and Se at the first group were lower than those found at the second group. Besides, the removal efficiencies of Hg in medium size waste incinerators were $55.2{\sim}95.9%$. Emission gas temperature reduction from waste heat boiler(WHB) contribute to control of Hg. Based on above results, we postulate that the temperature of flue gas should play a very important role in volatile metal control in small and medium size MSWIs. In order to improve the volatile metals removal efficiency, the temperature of cooling system must be controlled and the air pollution control device should be operated properly.

생활폐기물 소각시설에서의 다이옥신이 사회적 관심사로 대두되면서 각 소각시설에서는 다이옥신 농도를 기준치이하로 저감시키려는 노력을 꾸준히 해왔다. 그 결과 '97년 이후 배출농도 수준이 점진적으로 개선되고 있다. 그 대책으로 여러 가지 방안이 시행되었으나 소각시설 운전의 최적화와 시설개선에 의한 효과가 가장 큰 것으로 판단된다. 이와 같은 개선노력의 일환으로 본 연구의 대상이 되는 생활폐기물 소각시설에서는 배출되는 다이옥신 농도를 저감시키기 위해서 시범 플랜트를 설치ㆍ운영하고 있고, 본시설 또한, 운전 최적화와 후처리시설의 대체를 도모하고 있다.(중략)

소각시설에서의 다이옥신류의 거동에 대한 연구는 유입폐기물의 성상이나 운전 조건, 공정 특성 둥에 따라서 영향을 받고, 실험실규모에서의 기초연구가 실규모의 시설에는 조건 및 환경의 차이로 인해 적용될 수 없는 등 자료해석의 일반화를 도모하기가 어려운 경우가 많았다. 따라서, 본 연구는 실제 도시 고형폐기물 소각시설 후단의 배출가스 처리장치를 대상으로 하여 다이옥신류의 거동 특성에 대해 알아보았다. (중략)

The comparative analysis on physico-chemical characteristics of municipal solid waste from dwelling site and landfill site were performed to provide the fundamental information of waste management in Chungju city. It was analysed and evaluated the bulk density, physical component, three major component, chemical component, and heating value of MSW. The physical components depended on the sampling site in dwelling site and landfill site. But, by the ultimate analysis, the chemical composition was almost similar to result for municipal solid waste from dwelling site and landfill site. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the physical components according to sampling site for the MBT to introduce for combustible municipal solid waste pre-treatment, but it needs the chemical composition from landfill site to design the incinerator. The physical composition showed that the combustible and the noncombustible occupied 87.4% and 12.6% respectively. In case of three component analysis, the moisture, the combustible, and the ash were 27.6, 60.5, 11.9% respectively. The chemical composition through the element analysis were C (50.1%), H (6%), O (39.5%), N (1.9%), S (0.5%), and Cl (1.3%).
