  • In recent years, the importance of Carbon Capture and Storage (hereafter CCS) is growing bigger and bigger. The development and commercialization of CCS technology are concerned for reducing carbon dioxide($CO_2$) emissions. For the most studies, the technology of $CO_2$ storage is known as the geological storage, ocean sequestration, mineral carbonation, industrial utilization, and so on. The geological storage is adjudged the most reasonable technology from economic and environmental aspects. Generally, the $CO_2$ geological storage is comprised of compression - transportation - drilling/injection - storage/management process. The critical problem is a leakage of $CO_2$ in all process. For resolving a leakage problem, it is necessary to predict and build a monitoring system. Those systems are proved safety of a leakage and received positive social perceptions of $CO_2$ geological storage. For those reasons, a risk assessment of $CO_2$ geological storage is required. A risk assessment is an estimated process of the possible effects when spilling $CO_2$. Although numerous studies of risk assessment have studied, it is incomplete to evaluate a risk and disaster quantitatively. The risk assessment will be developed for domestic application and safe $CO_2$ geological storage considering characteristics of Korea.

  • High level radioactive wastes, such as spent fuels generated from nuclear power plant, will be disposed in a deep geological repository. To maintain the integrity of the disposal canister and to carry out the process effectively, the emplacement process for the canister system in borehole of disposal tunnel should be well defined. In this study, the concept of the disposal canister emplacement process for deep geological disposal was established. To do this, the spent fuel arisings and disposal rate were reviewed. Also, not only design requirements, such canister and disposal depth but also preliminary repository layout concept were reviewed. Based on the requirements and the other bases, the canister emplacement process in the borehole of the disposal tunnel was established. The established concept of the disposal canister emplacement process will be improved continuously with the future studies. And this concept can be effectively used in implementing the reference repository system of our own case.

  • This study developed a safety assessment tool for geological disposal systems called APro, a systemically integrated modeling system based on modularizing and coupling the processes which need to be considered in a geological disposal system. Thermal, hydraulic, chemical, canister failure, radionuclide release and transport processes were considered in the current version of APro. Each of the unit processes in APro consists of a single Default Module, and several Alternative Modules which can increase the flexibility of the model. As an initial stage of developing the modularization concept and modeling interface, the Default Modules of each unit process were described, with one Alternative Module of chemical process. The computation part of APro is mainly a MATLAB workspace controlling COMSOL and PHREEQC, which are coupled by an operator splitting scheme. The APro model domain is a stylized geological disposal system employing the Swedish disposal concept (KBS-3 type), but the repository layout can be freely adjusted. In order to show the applicability of APro to the total system performance assessment of geological disposal system, some sample simulations were conducted. From the results, it was confirmed that coupling of the thermal and hydraulic processes and coupling of the canister failure and the radionuclide release processes were well reflected in APro. In addition, the technical connectivity between COMSOL and PHREEQC was also confirmed.

  • Landslides are one of the natural disasters that cause a lot of financial and human losses every year It will be all over the world. China, especially. The Mainland China can be divided into 12 zones, including 4 high susceptibility zones, 7 medium susceptibility zones and 1 low susceptibility zone, according to landslide proneness. Climate and physiography are always at risk of landslides. The purpose of this research is to prepare a landslide hazard map using the Hierarchical Analysis Process method. In the GIS environment, it is in a part of China watershed. In order to prepare a landslide hazard map, first with Field studies, a distribution map of landslides in the area and then a map of factors affecting landslides were prepared. In the next stage, the factors are prioritized using expert opinion and hierarchical analysis process and nine factors including height, slope, slope direction, geological units, land use, distance from Waterway, distance from the road, distance from the fault and rainfall map were selected as effective factors. Then Landslide risk zoning in the region was done using the hierarchical analysis process model. The results showed that the three factors of geological units, distance from the road and slope are the most important have had an effect on the occurrence of landslides in the region, while the two factors of fault and rainfall have the least effect The landslide occurred in the region.

  • 일본에서는 2000년 고준위방사성폐기물의 심층처분을 위한 「특정방사성폐기물의 최종 처분에 관한 법률」을 제정하고 부지선정을 착수하였으나, 부지선정 절차에 참여를 원하는 지자체가 존재하지 않았다. 따라서, 일본 정부는 2015년 문헌조사 단계에 새로운 부지선정을 절차를 개발하고, 지자체의 공모를 촉진하고자 2017년 6월 28일 심층처분을 위한 전국규모 과학적 특성 지도를 발간하였다. 이 지도는 심층처분장 초기 혹은 개념단계에 고려되는 요건 및 기준 등을 제공하고 심층처분을 위한 적합성을 분석함으로써, 공공의 이해도 증진과 지자체와의 의견교환 등을 위해서 유용하게 활용되고 있다.

  • Nagra was established in 1972 by the Swiss nuclear power plant operators and the Federal Government to implement permanent and safe disposal of all types of radioactive waste generated in Switzerland. The Swiss Nuclear Energy Act specifies that these shall be disposed of in deep geological repositories. A number of different geological formations and sites have been investigated to date and an extended database of geological characteristics as well as data and state-of-the-art methodologies required for the evaluation of the long-term safety of repository systems have been developed. The research, development, and demonstration activities are further supported by the two underground research facilities operating in Switzerland, the Grimsel Test Site and the Mont Terri Project, along with very active collaboration of Nagra with national and international partners. A new site selection process was approved by the Federal Government in 2008 and is ongoing. This process is driven by the long-term safety and feasibility of the geological repositories and is based on a step-wise decision-making approach with a strong participatory component from the affected communities and regions. In this paper a brief history and the current status of the Swiss radioactive waste management program are presented and special characteristics that may be useful beyond the Swiss program are highlighted and discussed.

  • This study is aimed at suggesting ways to develop field trip or learning materials focusing on environment of Jeju seashore in order to make an effective field trip. To perform these purposes, the contents and concepts were analyzed from environment-related 'geological unit' of elementary science textbook. Afterwards, the places having the geological features in coincidence with them are chosen, and investigated, and these regions can develop into geological teaming places for field trip. Each teaming spot focuses on understanding and finding out the characteristic geological environment of rock shore, gravel shore, sand shore, shellfish shore, and tideland shore among Jeju shores. When field trip is conducted at the preparatory stage, students can get advance knowledge on geological concepts from textbook. The activity record paper is presented at the field trip stage where students observe geological phenomena on their own. After field trip is finished, the summary stage is given to solve some problems on the basis of the observed contents. The developed data from this research have its regional limits, but is surely useful for teachers who try to plan field trip when they especially choose the right field trip spots, or plan to make the process for field trip preparation of the environmental education. Furthermore, with this survey and activities, students can take the chance to improve the learning effect through their own experience on environment of Jeju seashore.

  • 정성적인 지질정보들의 연계 해석을 위해서는 자료들의 중요도에 따라 정량화가 선행되어야 한다. 이 연구에서는 계층분석과정을 사용하여 정성적 자료를 정량화하였다. 토목, 교통 및 지질관련 전문가 집단(30명)을 구성하여 선형토목구조물 설계에 필요한 지질 및 수리지질에 대한 조사항목을 설문하고 분석하였으며, 이에 따라 조사항목들에 대한 계층구조를 4단계로 구성하였다. 각 단계별 요소에서 선형토목구조물의 안정성에 가장 중요한 요인으로 작용하는 요소는 단층 구조이며, 그 중요도가 46%(0.456)로 나타났다. 단층구조 다음으로는 엽리/층리(0.165), 선구조선(0.144), 지하수(0.124), 암상(0.111) 등의 순으로 중요도를 갖는다.
