Characteristic of wastes in a unsanitary landfill at the residential development site in H city, Kyunggi-do was investigated for the disposal of huge amount of wastes. The total amount of wastes was estimated at 117,000 ton and construction solid wastes and municipal solid wastes were detected together. The portion of combustibles was very low and soils, concrete wastes, and pebbles were the major components in landfilled wastes. Because the site was the residential development site, the landfilled wastes should be removed immediately for the construction. Therefore the way that the unsanitary landfill was excavated and the wastes were sorted into three categories such as soils, noncombustibles and combustibles was selected as the best method. Soils and noncombustibles could be recycled and sorted combustibles could be re-landfilled in a smaller area or incinerated.

In recent years, problems of industrial solid wastes appear to be kind of national crises, caused by a sudden increase in their quantities, lack of disposal technique, and public discontent in installing plants for their disposal. This study is designed to investigate that pozzolana-based materials, such as blast furnace slag, fly-ash, paper sludge-ash, which are produced from industries as solid wastes, can be used as construction materials. The variations of concrete strength in function of compositional differences of raw materials including the wastes are studied experimentally. As a result, we find out that the blast furnace slag, the fly-ash, and the paper sludge-ash can be recycled as useful resources for replacement of cements by adjusting their substitution ratio.

건설현장의 환경관리가 강화되고 있는 방향으로 나아가고 있는 상황에서 기업의 입장에서는 좀더 효율적인 건설현장 환경관리가 필요하며, 건설폐기물의 관리는 그 중 가장 중요한 부분을 차지할 것이다. 부적절한 건설폐기물 처리에 의한 환경오염 및 환경파괴문제를 최소하기 위하여 발생량 데이터베이스 구축과 건설폐기물 발생량 예측방법이 필요하다. 바로 이러한 건설폐기물 발생량의 현실적인 예측을 위한 회귀모델을 제시하는 것을 본 연구의 목적으로 한다. 이 회귀모델은 건설공사의 실행예산을 작성하는 단계에서 폐기물 발생량을 좀더 정확하게 예측함으로써 효율적인 건설현장 환경관리가 가능하게 해주는 하나의 방법으로 제시하고자 한다. 건설회사들이 폐기물 발생량에 대해 지속적인 관심을 가진다면, 꾸준한 실적데이터 데이터베이스화를 통한 회귀모델로도 사전에 어느 정도 폐기물 발생량을 정확하게 예측할 수 있을 것이다. 이처럼 방법론적인 관점에서 하나의 모델을 제시했다는 데 연구 의의를 찾을 수 있을 것이다.

The main reason that drives many developing countries to pursue waste-to-energy (WtE) technologies is that it produces energy while eliminating build-up of large quantities of wastes, at a time, when oil and gas reserves are declining. The rate of generation of municipal solid wastes (MSW) in any given country depends on many factors including economy, population, and modernization of industry and infrastructure developments. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a federation of seven emirates that has grown to be one of the Middle East's most important economic centers. UAE has also become one of the highest waste producing countries due to fast development and growth; thus, UAE pursue modern technologies to covert generated wastes into energy. In this communication, the status of on-going waste to energy projects and WtE plants that are currently under design and construction in UAE are discussed. The need for development of WtE technologies is presented based on the literature, reports, economics and the environmental regulations.

Since its opening in 1992, Sudokwon Landfill has become a landfill in which wastes generated from more than 22 million people are treated and disposed of. Its first phase landfill was closed in 2000 and the second phase landfill is in operation since then. The Korean environmental policies on refuse have drastically evolved for the last decade or so. From merely safe containment of wastes, the utilization of them as a source for energy generation and the minimization of waste volume to be filled in landfills are in the mainstream. Keeping in pace with the new trends, several challenging projects are in their way to blossom in Sudokwon Landfill. This paper briefs some important activities in the landfill. They are (1) geotechnical issues related to the construction and maintenance of the $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ Landfills and (2) landfill gas and bioreactor which are recently emerging in the market.

During the past years, the protection of the environment has become a major concern out passing the state frontiers to reach a planetary dimension. Depository waste sites have become a serious problem in terms of their locations and costs. On the other hand, the construction industry has a leading place in terms of quantities of waste produced from the start to the end of each construction site, by the large amounts of raw materials used and their respective consequences on the environment. The recycling of quarry wastes products, of demolished concrete, bricks and large quantities of waste resulting from the transformation of marble blocks can provide ideal solutions and advantages for the preservation of the environment, to become a supplementary source of aggregates. The main purpose of this study is to show technically the possibility of recuperating the aggregates of marble wastes as a partial substitute or total in the mortars. The aggregates used in this study is a sand of marble wastes (excess loads of sand exposed to bad weather conditions) of the quarry derived from Fil-fila marble (Skikda, east of Algeria). To achieve this work, we have studied the effect of sand substitution of marble wastes in the mortar with rates of (25, 50, 75, 100%); comparing the results obtained with reference samples (0%), the properties when the samples are fresh, and the mechanical performances of mortars at solid state (loss and gain of weight, dimensional variations). The introduction of recycled sand in the mortars gives good results and can be used as granulates.

The physicochemical properties of solid wastes generated from seven highway service areas, four branch offices, and one construction site were analyzed in concert with air pollutants including heavy metals emitted from near-by small-scale incinerators. The amount of solid wastes generated from highway areas has been increasing with recent increases in the number of highways and passengers. Twelve incinerators examined in this study generally had capacity smaller than 100 kg/hr, most of which were equipped with cyclone for dust removal. It was seen that the concentrations of the gas-phase air pollutants (e.g., SO$_2$, NO$_{x}$, HCl and H$_2$S) were above the acceptable emission standards except one or two sites. CO concentrations at all incinerators were also higher due to incomplete combustion. In addition, particulate matters showed concentration six times higher at their maximum. The results of heavy metal analysis showed that the concentrations of Cu, Cd, and Ni satisfied the emission standards. whereas Pb at one site and Zn at five sites exceeded the standards. Cr measurement results indicated that 9 of 12 incinerators had higher values than the standard; especially one branch office showed nine times higher than normal concentration. In order to satisfy more stringent emission standards in the near future, it is necessary to install air pollution control system and to develop an intensified management plan.n.

목재 자원의 부족과 가격 상승에 대항할 수 있는 좋은 대안 중 하나가 목재 부산물이나 폐기물의 재활용이다. 조선 산업에서 얻어지는 목재 폐기물의 경우 기존에는 파쇄 되어 보드류 생산에 주로 사용되어 왔다. 하지만 파쇄를 통한 합판 폐기물의 재활용은 재료의 경제적 가치나 자원의 문제 등을 고려할 때 아쉬움이 많이 남는 처리 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 조선 산업에서 파생되는 목재 폐기물들의 재활용 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 국내 조선 산업의 목재 관련 폐기물은 합판 폐기물과 소재 폐기물로 나뉜다. 본 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. KS 규격에 따라 합판 폐기물과 합판 적층재의 휨성능을 평가하였다. 2. 합판 폐기물과 합판 적층재의 파괴 모드는 두 종류 모두 simple tension 파괴를 나타내었다. 3. 합판 폐기물과 합판 적층재의 재활용 용도로는 크게 외부 시설용, 내부 시설용 그리고 목조건축 자재로의 용도가 적합하다고 판단되었다. 적정 용도로는 인테리어 재료, 목재 파렛트, 마루판, 사이딩재, 판넬, 야외용 탁자, 데크용 재료 등인 것으로 생각된다.

Centrifugal pumps are typically used in many slurry industries to transport solid materials. Solid particles in the slurry frequently shock the walls inside the pump, significantly abrading the flow path. Wear damage causes replacement of the pump components, which wastes manpower and time. Therefore, previous studies have been conducted on factors to improve efficiency and life time. This study identifies trends in pumps supplying lime to desulfurized devices from thermal power plants. The shear stress transport(SST) model is used to determine the erosion trend of the centrifugal pump that transfers lime slurry. The purpose of this study is to identify efficiency and erosion trends by selecting three of the various impeller design elements. The three impeller blade design variables mentioned above represent the inlet draft angle and blade angle of leading edge(L.E) and trailing edge(T.E). The maximum value of the erosion density rate tends to be similar to the Input power.
