This research was performed to evaluate the food waste recovery facility using optimization performance index. In 2014, the generated amount of food waste occupied approximately 27% in total municipal solid waste. The 97.2% of the food waste was recycled and the others were treated through landfill and incineration in the portion of 0.9% and 1.9%, respectively. In food waste recovery facilities of year 2014, the composting and feed facilities were 49.5% and 22.9%, respectively. The feed facility showed higher scores in all technological, environmental, and especially economical evaluations than those of composting facility. As results of overall optimization performance index, the feed facility has higher score of 61.5 than 52.7 of composting facility. It was demonstrated that the feed facility has the advantage, compared with the composting facility.

국내에서 발생되는 고형폐기물 중 자원으로 재활용 가능한 유기성폐기물은 하수슬러지, 음식물류폐기물, 축산분뇨 등을 대표 할 수 있다. 이들 유기성폐기물은 환경적인 측면에서 볼 때 다른 유기성 폐수 및 폐기물에 비하여 오염부하량이 상대적으로 높지만, 이를 생물자원 (Biomass)으로 인식하고 이용 할 경우 지구온난화와 같은 환경문제 뿐만아니라 향후 자원고갈문제를 동시에 해결할 수 있는 대체에너지 자원이다. 유기성폐기물을 대체에너지 자원으로 효율적으로 이용하기 위해서는 우선적으로 국제적 환경규제와 에너지 정책에 능동적으로 대응할 수 있는 자원순환형 폐기물관리 시스템 구축이 필요하며, 이를 위한 체계적인 정책적 지원책과 기술 개발이 뒷받침 되어야 할 것이다. 자원 재활용과 에너지회수 기술에 있어 혐기성소화(anaerobic digestion)는 유기성폐기물의 효과적인 감량화, 재이용화, 안정화를 만족시키는 동시에 유용 에너지원인 메탄가스를 회수할 수 있는 바이오가스 전환기술로 최근에 주목을 받는 biotechnology 중의 하나로 자리매김 하고 있다. 특히, 소비자원의 대부분이 해외에 의존하는 국내현실과 최근 고유가에 따른 국가 에너지 정책을 제고해야하는 현 시점에서 유기성폐기물을 이용한 바이오가스화 기술을 널리 보급하기 위해서는 요소기술 개발과 정부의 적극적인 정책적 지원 방안이 마련되어야 할 것이다.

The food wastes recycling system should be constructed before 2005 in the city area. In order to manufacture the good compost, salt remaining rate should be minimized. We studied the effective method of minimizing salt ratio by diluting with low water ratio. We got the salt remaining ratio less than 0.3% by effective fragmentation method, and we applied the IR heating in order to make good compost.

Food waste has been actively used as a composting material in order to reduce the environmental pollution load and to enhance the recycling of resources. In this study, the longterm effects of continuous application of food waste compost to soils on both the crop production and the soil properties were examined to ensure the safety of food waste compost in agricultural use. In addition, we collected the preliminary data for establishing standard application rate of food waste compost for agricultural utilization. Based on conventional nitrogen application rate of chemical fertilizer for crop cultivation, pig manure compost $(24g\;N\;kg^{-1}$, $8g\;P_2O_5\;kg^{-1}$, and $10.4g\;K_2O\;kg^{-1})$ and food waste compost ($20g\;N\;kg^{-1}$, $20.1g\;P_2O_5\;kg^{-1}$, and $6.5g\;K_2O\;kg^{-1}$) were applied to the upland soil in $2{\times}2{\times}2m$ lysimeter in which lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. crispa), Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris subsp. napus var. pekinensis), red pepper (Capsicum annuum), and potato (Solanum tuberosum) were grown continuously. The crops grown in soils to which food waste compost applied showed better growth responses than the control, whereas some variations were observed in the crops grown in chemical fertilizer treated soils. Continuous application of food waste compost increased the contents of organic matter, nitrogen, and phosphorus, which resulted in improving soil aeration.

In this study, traditional treatment scenario of food wastes that collected and transported food waste is recycled in large treatment facilities and suggested treatment scenario of onsite zero discharge system that food waste is treated in housing complex were supposed. The scenarios were compared and analyzed by capital expenditure, oil consumption, $CO_2$ emission quantity, operating expenditure and management expenses. The capital expenditure, oil consumption and $CO_2$ emission quantity of small scale dispersion dealing method is the lowest compared to traditional treatment method. As a results, it is possible to obtain the effect that operating expenditure was reduced by 91% and management expenses was reduced by 40% with suggested treatment method. The treatment method that have low capital expenditure is tend to lower oil consumption and $CO_2$ emission quantity. The small scale dispersion dealing method have the lowest capital expenditure, oil consumption and $CO_2$ emission quantity and the linked method with sewage treatment have the highest expenditure and $CO_2$ emission quantity. Eventually, the optimal model of onsite zero discharge system in housing complex is small scale dispersion dealing method.

고유가 시대를 맞이하여 석유류를 대체할 연료의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 한편 석유로부터 나오는 농가의 폐비닐이나, 산업폐기물 중 가전제품 및 산업용 폐플라스틱의 증가로 재활용에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 일본 등에서는 이미 RPF를 연료로 사용하는 것이 보편화 되고 있어, 사람이 섭취하는 다이옥신의 98%는 음식, 1.5%는 대기 중에서 섭취하며, 소각장치에서 다이옥신류의 생성 억제 및 제거 기술은 이미 많이 확보되어 있다. RPF를 효과적으로 생산하고 열병합 발전소, 대형 보일러 시설, 작게는 농가의 대형 비닐하우스 등에 사용하기 위한 체계적인 연구가 필요하며, 본 논문에서는 W 기업의 플랜트 설비를 이용하여 폐플라스틱에 음식물류폐기물을 혼합한 RPF의 제조 및 연소특성을 중심으로 고찰하였다.

After the introduction of Volume-based Waste Fee System for municipal wastes, the disposal of food wastes became an issue in society. As this reason, recycling food wastes facilities play an important role such as converting of food waste into animal feed or composting of food waste. Therefore, there is need of efficiency measurement of the facilities to reduce the inefficiency of factors. The purpose of this paper is to make a reasonable suggestion for the improvement of inefficient recycling food wastes facilities. This paper assesses the relative efficiency of recycling food wastes facilities by examining the relationship between inputs and outputs in 41 facilities using data envelopment analysis(DEA). The result shows that 4 facilities whose values of CCR efficiency are 1, and 10 facilities whose values of BCC efficiency are 1, RTS indicates IRS of 17 facilities and CRS of 6 facilities.

Biogasification is a technology that produces environmentally friendly fuel using methane gas generated in the process of stably decomposing and processing organic waste. Biogasification is the most used method for energy conversion of organic waste with high moisture content, and is a useful method for organic waste treatment following the prohibition of direct landfill (2005) and marine dumping (2013). Due to African Swine Fever (ASF), which recently occurred in Korea, recycling of wet feed is prohibited, and consumers such as dry feed and compost are negatively recognized, making it difficult to treat food waste. Accordingly, biogasification is attracting more attention for the treatment and recycling of food waste. Korea's energy consumption amounted to 268.41 106toe, ranking 9th in the world. However, it is an energy-poor country that depends on foreign imports for about 95.8% of its energy supply. Therefore, in Korea, the Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard (RPS) is being introduced. The domestic RPS system sets the weight of the new and renewable energy certificate (REC, Renewable energy certificate) of waste energy lower than that of other renewable energy. Therefore, an additional incentive system is required for the activation of waste-to-energy. In this study, the operation of an anaerobic digester that treats food waste, food waste Leachate and various organic wastes was confirmed. It was intended to be used as basic data for preparing the waste-to-energy incentive system through precise monitoring for a certain period of time. Four sites that produce biogas from organic waste and use them for power generation and heavy gas were selected as target facilities, and field surveys and sampling were conducted. Basic properties analysis was performed on the influent sample of organic waste and the effluent sample according to the treatment process. As a result of the analysis of the properties, the total solids of the digester influent was an average of 12.11%, and the volatile solids of the total solids were confirmed to be 85.86%. BOD and CODcr removal rates were 60.8% and 64.8%. The volatile fatty acids in the influent averaged 55,716 mg/L. It can be confirmed that most of the volatile fatty acids were decomposed and removed with an average reduction rate of 92.3% after anaerobic digestion.
