The agricultural development of Korea has occurred at the expense of natural resources and environmental quality, and, today, one of the most urgent problem in the practices of intensive livestock farming is disposing of the animal wastewater. As a result, soil and water degradation and other environmental deterioration become apparent and they cause long-term loss in agricultural production. This paper attempted to summarize the environmental problems associated with agricultural activities, and to get some implications to minimize agricultural environment problems. It is proposed that sustainable agricultural is one of desirable directions for future Korean agriculture. The goal of the sustainable agricultural effort is to utilize the potential environmental quality problem. Agricultural operations may be more dependent upon the production practices and waste management techniques utilized by farmers than the size of the operation, the number of animal fed, or amount of waste involved. Also low-input farming technology can be suggested one of them, and disposing system of agricultural residues and animal waste should be developed with intensive concerns and financial supports.

Biodiesel is a clean energy resource that can replace diesel as fuel, which can be used without any structural changes to the engine. Vegetable oil accounts for 95 percent of the raw materials used to produce biodiesel. Thus, many problems can arise, such as rising prices of food resources and an imbalance between supply and demand. Most of the previous studies using waste cooking oil used waste cooking oil from a single material. However, the waste cooking oil that is actually collected is a mixture of various types of waste cooking oil. Therefore, in this study, biodiesel produced with mixed waste cooking oil was supplied to an agricultural single-cylinder diesel engine to assess its potential as an alternative fuel. Based on the results, the brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) increased compared to diesel, and the axis power decreased to between 70 and 99% compared to the diesel. For emissions, NO_x and CO₂ were increased, but CO and HC were decreased by up to 1 to 7% and 16 to 48%, respectively, compared to diesel. The emission characteristics of the mixed waste cooking oil biodiesel used in this study were shown to be similar to those of conventional vegetable biodiesel, confirming its potential as a fuel for mixed waste cooking oil biodiesel.

Treatment of food waste is becoming a big issue due to their significant quantities. Composting could be an effective alternative for food waste management which could be used as soil conditioner or fertilizer with little concerns about heavy metals and pathogens. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effect of food waste on Chinese cabbage growth and soil properties. 9 different treatments (two livestock manures, two food wastes, two livestock manures + chemical fertilizer, two food wastes + chemical fertilizer, and control) were applied to Chinese cabbage. All treatments were carried out in 3 replicates. We measured leaf length, leaf width, fresh weight, dry weight, and leaf greenness of Chinese cabbage. Treatment of one of food waste composts significantly increased leaf length and leaf width of Chinese cabbage by 28.6, 26.6, 67.7, and 59.9%, respectively, in comparison to those of control, while no significant differences for leaf greenness were shown. Application of food waste compost resulted in significant increase of EC, available $P_2O_5$, CEC, organic matter, and exchangeable cations. However, further researches are needed to reduce NaCl content of food waste.

산업사회의 발달과 더불어 지속적으로 증가되고 있는 음식물류 폐기물은 현재 여러 가지 방법으로 재활용되고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 음식물류 폐기물의 처리현황을 조사하고, 음식물류 폐기물 감량의무사업장으로 분류되어 있는 전국공영농산물도매시장을 대상으로 음식물류 폐기물의 합리적인 사업화를 위한 재활용 개선방안을 제시하고자 한다. 국내 음식물류 폐기물 처리업체 분포는 경기지역이 39.5%로 가장 많았으며 그 외 지역은 10% 이내로 나타났다. 이중 공공처리시설이 38.0% 이었고 민간처리시설이 62.0%이었다. 그리고 재활용 방법은 사료화가 47.5%, 퇴비화는 36.4%, 기타 12.6% 등의 순으로 나타났다. 특히 2011년 이후로는 혐기성소화의 비율이 5.4%로 뚜렷한 성장세를 나타내고 있다. 따라서 향후 음식물류 폐기물의 재활용 방향이 정부 정책과 부합되는 혐기성 소화방법으로 전환되고 있음을 나타내고 있다. 전국 33개 공영 농산물 도매시장의 전체 거래량 중 서울가락시장, 서울강서시장, 대구시장, 부산엄궁시장, 구리시장이 각각 34.67, 7.47, 6.98, 5.41, 5.30% 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 농산물 거래량 대비 평균 음식물류 폐기물 처리량은 2.65% 이었다. 특히, 2006년 농림수산식품부의 무 및 배추의 포장화 정책으로 서울가락시장의 음식물류 폐기물 처리량은 1/3으로 감소하였다. 전국 공영 농산물 도매시장의 음식물류 폐기물 처리방법은 2010년 탈수가 56.3%, 원상반출이 33.7%, 탈수 후 건조가 10.0%로 탈수처리가 가장 높게 나타났다. 그러나 2013년 원상반출이 56.30%, 탈수 37.5%, 탈수 후 건조가 6.3%로 원상반출이 급증하였는데 이는 전체 거량이 가장 많은 서울 가락동시장이 원상반출 처리량이 증가하였기 때문이다. 농산물 도매시장의 음식물류 폐기물은 수분함량(평균 88%)이 높고 염분함량(평균 0.02%)이 낮은 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 농산물 도매시장의 음식물류 폐기물은 원상반출 및 탈수 보다는 탈수 후 건조가 처리능력을 향상 시킬 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 그리고 탈수 후 건조된 음식물류 폐기물은 양질의 퇴비화 원료를 활용할 수 있기 때문에 농산물 도매시장의 음식물류 폐기물은 탈수 후 건조하여 퇴비화 방법으로 재활용사업화를 추진하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

The nutritional requirements for the maximum production of lipopeptides by Bacillus subtilis N7 (B. subtilis N7) were investigated and optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) under shake flask fermentation. A one-factor-at-a-time experimental setup was used to screen carbon and nitrogen sources. A Plackett-Burman design (PBD) was employed to screen the most critical variables for lipopeptides production amongst ten nutritional elements. The central composite experimental design (CCD) was finally adopted to elucidate the composition of the fermentation medium. Statistical analyses (analysis of variance, ANOVA) of the results showed that KCl, $MnSO_4$ and $FeSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O$ were important components and that their interactions were strong. Lipopeptide production was predicted to reach 709.87 mg/L after a 60 h incubation using an optimum fermentation medium composed of glucose 7.5 g/L, peanut oil 1.25 g/L, $MgSO_4$ 0.37 g/L, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.75 g/L, monosodium glutamate 6.75 g/L, yeast extract and $NH_4Cl$ (5:3 w/w) 10 g/L, KCl 0.16 g/L, $FeSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O$ 0.24 mg/L, $MnSO_4$ 0.76 mg/L, and an initial pH of 7.0. Lipopeptide production ($706.57{\pm}3.70$ mg/L) in the optimized medium confirmed the validity of the predicted model.

This study was performed to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of porous concrete using waste activated carbon. Material used were ordinary portland cement, recycled coarse aggregate, waste activated carbon and superplasticizer. The replacement ratios of waste activated carbon were 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10 %. The void ratio was decreased and ultrasonic pulse velocity was increased with increasing the waste activated carbon powder, respectively. The compressive strength and flexural strength of porous concrete using waste activated carbon powder were in the range of 8.21${\sim1}$6.58 MPa and 1.69${\sim1}$3.68 MPa, respectively. The pH degree of porous concrete in 1day and 77days were shown in 12.50${\sim1}$12.63 and 10.21${\sim1}$10.70, respectively. Accordingly, waste activated carbon can be used for porous concrete material.

Anaerobic co-digestion of swine manure and food waste for biogas production was performed in serum bottles at 2% volatile solids(VS) concentration and various mixing ratios of two substrates(swine manure: food waste = 100 : 0 $\sim$ 0 : 100). Through kinetic mode of surface methodology, the methane production was fitted to a Gompertz equation. The specific methane production potential of swine manure alone was lower than that of food waste. However, maximum methane production potential increased up to 1.09-1.22% as food waste composition increased up to the 80%. The maximum methane production value of food waste was 544.52 mL/g VS. It was observed that the maximum methane production potential of 601.86 mL/g VS was found at the mixing ratio of 40:60.
