There are still lots of areas where combined sewer pipes are covering in Seoul. All buildings within those areas are equipping septic tanks which take part in separating solids from flushing water of chamber pots. Septic tanks legally demand emptying and cleaning the those inner bodies once a year, resulting the generation of sludge which should be purified using the specified treatment plants as one of environmental infrastructures. Previous research showed that sludge volume continuously increase putting night soil treatment facilities in shortage by 3,549kL a day in 2020, which should be prepared by newly built facilities. This study aimed to define which process is more suitable especially in the points of cost and energy consumption. It was the main results that combining treatment of sewer with night soil, in fact same as nowaday process, is the very positive way beyond the treatment of night soil's own in respects of both costs and energy consumption.

In spite of various merit of algae as biofuel, the production cost of algae is a considerable obstacle for commercialization. The concurrent development of essential technologies is needed for the cultivating, harvesting, extracting and energy transformation. The production cost of algae biofuel has still higher than that of the other commercial biofuel. The major research activity has been focused on the cultivating and the research of other processes has been done with relatively lower activity. It is difficult to separate the algae from water because of the similar magnitude of density each other. The agglomeration and extracting of algae with the hybrid technology using ultrasonic wave is rare effect of environmental hazard and also it is appropriate technology for the next generation energy resources. The present research is investigated for the effective separation of algae from water with the ultrasonics wave. The aim of the present research is focused on the establishment of optimal design of algae agglomeration system. For this purpose, the computational fluid dynamic analysis has been conducted in the flow field with ultrasonic wave and algae flow to clarify the mechanism of algae separation by ultrasonic wave.

While fishery has been continuously suffering from deteriorating economic feasibility, the amount of the deposited marine litter has been increasing due to an increased number of marine leisure tourists which are caused by an improved quality of life and five-day work week. In addition, the fishery area has been reduced by the reclamation projects and it is being destroyed by marine pollution with a variety of contaminants coming from land and sea. To protect and improve fisheries in these poor conditions, Korean governments have implemented the submerged marine litter collection projects. However, previous research results on the marine environment and resources indicate that it requires a lot of time investment to achieve tangible results of such improvement. The 300 billion won marine environment and resource investigation project has been executed since July 2004 by Korean governments, which demands strategic approaches to obtain more effective and satisfactory results before the project expires in 2013. Ocean environment research institutes and governments need to cooperate each other to gain efficient and reasonable achievement by identifying and linking related projects. This study suggests that the marine environment and resources investigation projects should run parallel with the submerged marine litter collection projects on mutually agreed research items in the identical area of the ocean to obtain cost-effective improvement of marine environment and fishery conditions.

분뇨는 예로부터 비료로 사용되어 왔으나 화학비료의 일반화와 수인성전염병 및 기생충 감염 등 위생적 문제 때문에 현재 그 사용이 제한되고 있으며 도시화로 인하여 분뇨의 수거지역이 그 사용지역과 밀어 이를 위생적으로 처리하기 위해 많은 비용이 소요된다. 이러한 분뇨를 적당한 수분조절제 혹은 탄소원을 혼합하여 퇴비로 만들어 토양개량제로 사용하는 방법을 확립하기 위해 본 연구에서는 실험실 규모의 퇴비제조장치를 만들어 분뇨-왕겨 혼합물의 퇴비화 최적조건을 검토하였다. 분뇨-왕겨 혼합물을 채운 퇴비제조장치를 6$0^{\circ}C$ water bath에 장치하고 수분함량, 탄소원의 양, 통기량을 변화시키면서 발생하는 $CO_2$, NH$_3$의 량을 측정하여 퇴비화속도를 측정하였다.

센서 노드는 정보 수집, 데이터 통신, 협력을 통한 모니터링과 같은 작업들을 수행하기 위해 군사 작전 지역, 산업 시설, 생태 환경 등에 배치된다. 응용 프로그램과 운영체제가 설치된 센서 노드를 센서 필드에 배치하고 나면 센서 노드는 쉽게 수거되기 어렵고 재프로그래밍을 위한 물리적인 연결이 힘들게 되어 응용의 변화에 따른 새로운 응용 프로그램의 설치, 수정과 같은 업데이트가 쉽지 않다. 또한 제한적인 시스템 자원을 가진 센서 노드의 특성상 이러한 재구성 기능은 업데이트에 사용되는 비용이 고려 되어야한다. 본 논문에서는 유한 상태 머신 (finite state machine) 기반의 운영체제인 SenOS에서 응용의 변화에 대처할 수 있도록 동적 재구성 기능이 구현된 형태와 특징을 기술한다.

Amid growing interest in recycling around the world, the amount of waste is increasing despite the separate discharge efforts of each household, and it is difficult to find accurate data on recycling household waste. Also, recycling segregation is already settled in our daily lives, but we face a serious problem in which a significant portion of the recyclables collected are re-waste. In this study has been proposed a cash compensation system for recyclables, which is paid cash when the recyclables are washed clean and discharged. The cash compensation system proposed in this study could re-use 100% of the discharged recyclables, resulting in rewards for good deeds for individuals, greater returns for businesses and reduced disposal costs for local governments. In addition, it is expected that the government will be able to secure data related to the recycling of domestic waste, which will contribute to the management of recyclables at the national level.

Korea's large-scale incinerating facilities of domestic waste were built in the late 1980's. It was found that most of the incinerators were designed during the period and even the ones constructed afterwards have been built without any changes or modifications. However, the nature of waste fed into incinerators is undergoing a radical change due to government policies on waste collection, which is upheld by a research into changes in the heating value of domestic wastes. As a result, refractories and stokers are being damaged in many of the facilities due to overheating. On the other hand, the formation of clinkers on boilers' heating surface, which curbs he at transfer, results in problems such as a fall in used heating value and a rise in the temperature of combustion chambers. Methods are being deployed to resolve the problems-such as spraying water on piles of waste, incinerating food waste by mixing together what has been separately collected, spraying water on combustion chambers, etc. Such actions are not a fundamental solution, nor redesigning and rebuilding incineration facilities is cost-effective. This research seeks to develop a fundamental solution to address the situation.

현재의 가축분뇨처리 형태와 축종별 적용대상은 표 3과 같이 분류되며, 축분 퇴비화 뇨오수 정화방식의 고액분리 형태에서 분뇨혼합물의 동시처리 즉, 깔감축사(소, 돼지), 슬러리 발효 퇴비화를 통한 무방류 시스템으로 변화되는 추세이다. 이러한 현상은 최근의 방류수질 규제강화에 따른 무방류화 저비용 단순화를 지향하고 있으며, 무방류화의 가장 큰 걸림돌은 톱밥과 같은 수분조절재 부족이라 할 수 있다. 현재 이용되고 있는 주요 시스템별 개선안은 다음과 같다. $\square$ 주요 처리 시스템 적용의 문제제기 $\circ$ 축분발효시설 - 톱밥 등 부자재 무이용을 위한 축분의 예비 건조시설 이용 - 교반식 발효기의 악취확산방지를 위하여 밀폐형 하우스 및 강제환기 장치 설치에 의한 악취 포집 및 탈취 - 중소규모 발효시설 개발 $\circ$ 화력건조 - 예비건조를 통한 톱밥, 연료비용 절감 - 악취방치 장치부착 의무화 $\circ$ 활성오니 정화시설 - 시설 운전관리 단순화 - 1차 고액분리를 통한 유입수 오염부하량 감소 및 균일화 $\circ$ 깔감축사 - 경제적으로 흡수를 극대화할 수 있는 수분조절재의 조합비 결정 및 혼합물을 깔감으로 재이용 기술개발 $\circ$ 슬러리 발효퇴비화 시설 - 톱밥 등 수분조절재 사용량 절감기술 - 증발량 극대화 기술개발 및 소요에너지 최소화기술개발 우리나라는 사계절이 뚜렷하여 외기상에 따라 편차가 심하며, 고밀도 사육 및 지역적 편중성, 경지면적 협소, 고비용 시장구조 등의 축산환경을 고려한다면 근원적으로 가축분뇨문제 해결한다는 것은 결코 쉬운 일이 아니다. 이는 저공해 사료개발에서부터 분뇨가 발생단계에서 분리, 수거할 수 있는 수거시설, 고효율 분뇨처리시스템의 정립, 액비 및 퇴비의 가공, 토양환원되었을 때 작물생장장애, 액비, 퇴비의 유통, 가축분뇨처리 정책 및 규제법 등의 각 분야에서 복합적 노력이 필요하다.

This study examines the problem of efficient scheduling of waste collection in isolated regions like islands when the waste accumulated amount surpasses the standard ceiling by effectively tracking the accumulating trends based on the optimum checking model of Keller (1974). To grasp whether the waste accumulated amount in isolated regions exceeds the standard ceiling, the relevant authorities can tightly check during a set period, but this entails higher monitoring costs. On the other hand, if the accumulated waste over the ceiling is not immediately checked and collected, and continues for a set period of time, innovative efforts for waste management may be highly demanded. As such, the tradeoffs are considered to draw the optimal checking schedule. This study shows that the authorities get to check less frequently the waste accumulation trends if the monitoring costs increase or when the failure rate of waste management systems drops. On the other hand, they get to check more frequently if the accumulated waste amount in isolated regions exceeds the standard ceiling and welfare loss grows as a result. It also shows that frequent checking is the optimal choice if the social marginal benefits enjoyed from innovative efforts made to keep accumulated waste below the standard ceiling, are not significant.
