The energy consumption of apartment houses is affected by various factors. The criteria for assessing current energy usage are area, region and purpose. The purpose of this study is to obtain the reliability of the method of evaluating the existing energy consumption certificate and to derive usable evaluation factors according to the correlation of factors affecting energy consumption. The research process collects energy usage data for apartment houses in Daegu and calculates statistical results through correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. As a result, it was found that the power energy is influenced by the yearly factor of physical characteristics, and the heat energy and total energy usage are influenced by the energy source which is energy characteristic factor.

Many countries have made their best to protect the earth from global warming and to find solutions for the reduction of carbon dioxide emittion and energy consumption. Especially, buildings have emitted over 40% of carbon dioxide against whole quantities emitted to the earth. Therefore, the reduction of carbon dioxide emitted from buildings require to save the earth environment. Energy consumption of buildings in Korea has reached 24% of total energy quantities, and energy consumption of collective housing has been continuously increasing. So, Korea government has also executed the Green Building Certification Criteria(GBCC). The GBCC evaluates the 8 types of buildings - collective housing, office, school, etc - to certificate the green building. In this paper, the evaluation items of collective housing in GBCC were reviewed to be used as the reference data for future revisions by the case studies. According to the results of this study, current version of GBCC requires additional revisions about the evaluations of energy consumption monitoring, commissioning and existing building.

Objectives: While recent studies showed that coffee consumption reduced the risk of all-cause mortality, no study has examined the effect of coffee consumption on all-cause mortality related to sleep disorders. We aimed to examine whether sleep-related disorders would differently affect the association between coffee consumption and the risk of all-cause mortality among 8,075 adults aged 40 to 69 years. Methods: In a prospective cohort study, the study participants were biennially followed up for 12 years from 2001 to 2012. On each follow-up visit, the participants underwent comprehensive tests including anthropometric examinations, interviewer-administered questionnaires, and biochemical tests. Coffee consumption frequency and the amount were measured using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Using death certificate data from Korean National Statistical Office, the vital status of each study participant was identified. Sleep-related disorders were examined with interviewer-administered questionnaires. We estimated Hazard ratios and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals from Cox Proportional Hazard models. Multivariable models were established after adjusting for center, total caloric intake, age, gender, body mass index, physical activity, education, smoking, drinking, hypertension, diabetes, total cholesterol, c-reactive protein, energy-adjusted food groups of refined grains, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and dairy. Results: Compared with those who had no coffee consumption, participants who had about three cups of coffee per day showed a reduced risk of all-cause mortality, after adjusting for covariates. Those who had a sleep-related disorder showed no significant effect of coffee consumption on the risk of all-cause mortality, whereas those who had no sleep-related disorders showed significantly reduced risk of all-cause mortality. Conclusions: Our findings suggested that approximately three cups of coffee per day would be beneficial to reduce the risk of all-cause mortality only among adults with no sleep-related disorders. Coffee consumption should be prudent for those with sleep-related symptoms.

바이오가스화는 유기성폐기물을 안정적으로 분해하여 처리하는 과정에서 발생하는 메탄(CH₄)가스를 이용해 환경친화적인 연료를 생산하는 기술이다. 바이오가스화는 수분함량이 높은 유기성폐기물의 에너지화에 가장 많이 활용되는 방법이며, 직매립(2005) 및 해양투기(2013) 등의 금지에 따른 유기성폐기물 처리에 유용한 공법이다. 최근 국내에서 발병한 아프리카돼지열병(ASF, African Swine Fever)으로 습식사료화 재활용이 금지되고, 건조 사료화 및 퇴비화 등의 생산제품 수요처가 부정적으로 인식되면서 음식물류폐기물의 처리에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이에, 음식물류폐기물의 처리 및 자원화를 위해 바이오가스화가 더욱 주목받고 있다. 우리나라 에너지소비 규모는 268.41 10⁶toe에 이르며 세계 9위 수준이다. 하지만 공급에너지의 약 95.8 %를 해외수입에 의존하고 있는 에너지 빈곤 국가이다. 따라서 국내에서는 신·재생에너지 공급의무화제도(RPS, Renewable energy portfolio standard)를 도입하고 있다. 국내의 RPS 제도는 다른 신재생에너지와 비교하여 폐기물에너지의 신·재생에너지 공급인증서(REC, Renewable energy certificate)의 가중치를 낮게 설정하고 있다. 따라서 폐자원에너지의 활성화를 위한 추가적 인센티브 제도가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 음식물류폐기물, 음폐수 및 다양한 유기성폐기물이 처리되는 혐기소화조의 운영방식을 알아보고, 일정 기간의 정밀모니터링을 통해 폐자원에너지 인센티브제도를 마련하는 기초자료로써 활용하고자 하였다. 유기성 폐기물로 바이오가스를 생산하여 발전과 중질가스로 활용하는 4개소를 대상시설로 선정하였고, 현장조사 및 시료채취를 실시하였다. 채취된 유기성폐기물의 유입물 시료와 처리공정에 따른 유출물 시료의 기초 성상분석을 수행하였다. 성상분석 결과, 소화조 유입물의 총 고형물은 평 균 12.11 %이며, 총 고형물 중 휘발성 고형물은 85.86 %로 확인되었다. BOD와 CODcr 제거율은 소화조의 유입·유출 대비 각각 60.8 %와 64.8 %로 나타났으며, 유입물의 휘발성지방산은 평균 55,716 mg/L로 나타났으며, 혐기소화 후 감소율이 평균 92.3 %로 대부분 분해되어 제거된 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Plenty of efforts have been made in the traditional architecture of Korea, Hanok, to develop various elements such as restoration, the introduction of new design, and energy-saving while systemic setups on standard and evaluation of eco-friendly energy design of Hanok are lacking. If we evaluate energy performance based on current standards without reflecting unique features of Hanok on the system, Hanok will be included in the very low grade among the residential buildings being included in the approval system of eco-friendly architecture or the unique features will be modified and the burden of increased construction cost. Therefore, this study is to prepare the basic reference for the introductory evaluation system by evaluating the energy performance level of NEO-Hanok based on the current building energy rating system. The result for NEO-Hanok based on the building energy rating system, we propose the rating standard with scorecard elements of NEO-Hanok by considering the necessity of identity and standard for NEO-Hanok. As a result of infiltration test to check the tightness, it was measured as 10.81 times/h (50 ACH). As we switch from the main insulation for the wall from the glass wool 64k(0.035W/mk) to rigid polyurethane foam first class first unit (0.024W/mk), the result was slightly increased from the first demand quantity rating yield $249.8kWh/m^2{\cdot}yr$ to $235.0kWh/m^2{\cdot}yr$. Current certificate system is focused more on the heating load than the cooling load, it is disadvantageous for Hanok, which has less cooling energy consumption in summer. The rating result from the target building study is level 4.
