화력발전소, 석유화학공단 등 대규모 배출원에서 발생되는 이산화탄소를 활용하여 온실가스의 배출을 줄이고, 경제적 가치를 창출할 수 있는 탄소자원화는 기후변화 대응을 위한 국가전략프로젝트 중 하나이다. 전 세계적으로 탄소자원화 기술은 아직 상용화 단계이지만 최근 강화된 온실가스 감축 의무로 인하여 탄소자원화 시장은 더욱 확대될 전망이다. 화력발전소의 이산화탄소 발생 과정에서 배출되는 수증기는 응축기술을 통하여 새로운 수원으로 활용이 가능하다. 응축된 물의 최적 활용과 사용처 지향적 효율적 물순환을 위한 시설 내 스마트 워터 그리드(SWG) 개념의 물분배 시스템은 발전 산업 내에 탄소자원화의 핵심기술로 사용될 수 있다. SWG는 시설 내 용수공급 관리에서의 관망 운영, 물 수요 관리 등 ICT를 활용한 종합적인 물 분배 시스템으로, 본 연구에서는 SWG 물순환 시스템의 국내외 기술조사를 통해 발전 산업 시설 내에 적용성을 검토하였다. 물의 재이용 시스템을 포함한 SWG 기술, 지능형 관망 운영 기법 기술, 실시간 수질 감시 체계 기술 연구를 기반으로, ICT 기반 용수공급 정보 관리 기술과 수운영 모니터링 기술을 통하여 SWG가 발전 산업 연계 기술로써 적용될 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 SWG 시스템을 적용한 산업 인프라를 통하여 산업적 파급 효과를 높이고, 이를 활용한 인력과 비용 절감이 기대되며, 저에너지, 고효율화를 위한 기술력과 글로벌 물 시장진출 경쟁력을 향상시키기 위한 기초연구자료로써 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Various carbon upcycling technologies have been proposed and are under development to achieve Korea's carbon neutrality target. Many chemical reactions are under development through various chemical reaction pathways, and different technological maturity levels are shown for each country and company. In this situation, it is essential to establish investment decisions such as research funds and human resources allocation through technological and economic analysis for close commercialization technologies and basic technologies with low technology readiness levels (TRL). Therefore, in this study, the technology development priority for developing carbon upcycling items was selected according to the domestic Carbon Capture & Utilization (CCU) technology roadmap using the stakeholder selection tool released by EU CarbonNext. As a result of the analysis, the TRL level of Korea's major carbon upcycling technologies was analyzed to be lower than that of other carbon resource technologies, and it was considered desirable to invest in mineral carbonization technologies among various candidate technologies.

바이오매스 이용.활용 사업은 수산업. 어촌의 활성화를 목적에 두고 있으므로 경제성이 우수해야하는 것이 필수 조건이지만, 한편 지구 온난화 방지나 순환형 사회구축이라는 목적을 가지고 있어 경제성뿐만 아니라 탄소 고정 등 한경에 공헌하는가도 평가의 대상으로 검토하는 것이 바람직하다.

Coal briquette use has dramatically increased because of high oil prices. Hence, it is necessary to develop an environment-friendly recycling technique of the coal briquette ash. The coal briquette ash contains a large amount of an unburned carbon content and a mullite with high thermal property, so it is considered to be used as raw materials of sintered eco-brick. This study aimed to investigate on how the unburned carbon affects properties of the sintered eco-brick. The eco-brick was mixed with the ratio of 50 wt% coal briquette ash having the unburned carbon 10.5 wt% and 50 wt% cullet, then being sintered at $950^{\circ}C$, which of the compressive strength was in line with the first class of the sintered clay brick standard(KS L 4201). In particular, the compressive strength of the sintered eco-brick was equal to the first class of the KS L 4201 despite the increase of mixing ratio for coal briquette ash with 1.0 wt% unburned carbon to 70 wt%.

In this study, we demonstrate the effects of the acidic properties of montmorillonite (MMT), which is commonly used as a catalyst, on the conversion and selectivity of the dimer acid methyl ester (DAME) synthesis. We synthesize DAME by the dimerization of conjugated linoleic acid methyl ester (CLAME) and oleic acid methyl ester using MMT KSF. Incidentally, trimer acid methyl ester was formed as a by-product during the DAME synthesis. There is a necessity to adequately adjust the strength and quantity of the acid site to control the selectivity of DAME. Therefore, we vary the pH of the MMT acid by using various metal hydroxides. The purpose of this study is to increase the yield of monocyclic dimer acid methyl ester, which is a substance with adequate physical properties for industrial applications (e.g., lubricant and adhesive, etc.), using a heterogeneous catalyst. We report the dimerization of fatty acid methyl ester by using base treated-KSF, and apply it to conjugated soybean oil methyl ester. Then, we transmute the acid site properties of KSF, such as pH of 5 wt.% slurry KSF and various alkali metals (Li, Na, K, Ca). Characterization of base treated-KSF using a pH meter, x-ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface analysis, and temperature-programmed desorption. We conduct an analysis of CLAME and DAME using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, gas chromatography, and gel permeation chromatography. Through these experiments, we demonstrate the effects of the acidic properties of KSF on the conversion and selectivity of the DAME synthesis, and evaluate its industrial potential by application to waste vegetable oil.

Wood wastes could be renewable resources by recycling as particleboard manufacturing or energy production. Particle board is the most common item of wood waste recycling and energy production from wood wastes has highlighted for energy recovery to reduce greenhouse gas generation in recent years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the environmental benefits of the processes for particle board manufacturing and energy production. The functional unit was one ton of wood wastes and the environmental impact was analyzed by life cycle assessment methodology. The result was that 112kg of carbon dioxide equivalent was produced from particle board manufacturing process and 382kg of carbon dioxide equivalent was produced from combined heat and power generation process. The concept of temporary biomass carbon storage was to applied to this study.

21세기의 이슈 중 가장 주목받고 있는 것은 '녹색성장'입니다. 정부 역시 '저탄소 녹생성장'을 향후 60년 비전으로 제시하여 에너지 위기와 경제위기를 동시에 타개해 나가겠다고 선포하였습니다. 이에 따라 환경부에서는 저탄소 녹색성장의 효율적 추진을 위해 지자체 기후변화대응 강화, 탄소포인트제 실시, 폐기물 에너지 자원화, 저탄소형 소비 생산 문화 확산, 온실가스감축 실천프로그램, 저탄소 자동차 보급 확대 등 10대 중점과제를 선정하여 단계별로 추진 중입니다. 지금부터는 고유가 시대에 저렴한 연료비로 관심을 바도 있는 LPG차량(완성차, 엔진개조차량 포함)의 연비 특성에 대해 살펴보겠습니다.

Chemical utilization of $CO_2$ is recognized as the technology for the reduction of greenhouse gas as well as the use of carbon to resources. Although various chemicals are commercially produced, the innovative development is still necessary to utilize large quantity of $CO_2$. In this report, the current status of technology to preserve -CO-O- linkage into the molecules was introduced, particularly for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and polyols, which are raw materials of polycarbonate and polyurethane, respectively. RIST developed the novel process for the DMC production via urea methanolysis and the new catalytic system for polyol synthesis. Because of high contents of $CO_2$ in both chemicals, it is expected that they are able to contribute for the reduction of greenhouse gas.
