Enclosed pig house are creating an environment with high concentrations of gas and dust. Poor conditions in pig farms reduce pig weight and increase disease and accidents for livestock workers. In the pig house, the high concentration of harmful gas may cause asphyxiation accidents to workers and chronic respiratory disease by long-term exposure. As pig farm workers have been aging and feminized, the damage to the health of the harsh environment is getting serious, and real-time monitoring is needed to prevent the damage. However, most of the measuring devices related to humidity, harmful gas, and fine dust except temperature sensors are exposed to high concentrations of gas and dust inside pig house and are difficult to withstand for a long time. The purpose of this study is to develop an wearable based device to monitor the hazardous environment exposed to workers working in pig farms. Based on the field monitoring and previous researches, the measurement range and basic specifications of the equipment were selected, and wearable based device was designed in terms of utilization, economic efficiency, size and communication performance. Selected H₂S and NH₃ sensors showed the average error of 5.3% comparing to standard gas concentrations. The measured data can be used to manage the working environment according to the worker's location and to obtain basic data for work safety warning.

Human has faced in lack of fossil fuel and environmental crisis because of high population growth and development of industry. Hydrogen, unlimited amount and clean resource from water electrolysis, is remarkably known as the solution of recent energy crisis. One of the special characteristics of hydrogen is that a little amount of catalytic such as platinum and palladium makes nonflammable combustion, in other words catalyst combustion. Catalytic combustion fueled by hydrogen is environmentally friendly. This paper considers some comparisons of characteristic of catalytic combustion between a single layer of platinum catalyst, double layer of platinum and nickel catalysts and mixture of platinum and nickel catalysts. Some experiments of temperature distribution at different positions and characteristic of combustion in low temperature region were done in order to find an applicable possibility as a house-cooking burner.

This study analyzes transitions to a green path in transportation system in South Korea. We develop transportation system model with four new technology options, green cars; Hybrid electric vehicle, plug-in hybrid vehicle, electric vehicle and fuel cell vehicle. Among those technologies fuel cell vehicle is the best option assuming no GHG emissions when driving. We use MESSAGE model to get an optimal solution of pathway for high deployment of fuel cell vehicles under the Korea BAU transportation model. Among hydrogen production sources, off gas hydrogen is most economic since it is hardly used to other chemical sources or emits in South Korea. According to off gas hydrogen projection it can run 1.8 million fuel cell vehicles in 2040 which corresponds to 10% of all passenger cars expected in Korea in 2040. However, there are concerns associated with technology maturity, cost uncertainty which has contradictions. But clean pathway with off gas and renewable sources may provide a strong driving force for energy transition in transportation in South Korea.

Currently, hydrogen has been produced by Steam Reforming or partial oxidation reforming processes mainly from oil, coal, and natural gas and results in the production of $CO_2$. However, these are influenced greatly on the green house effect of the earth. so it is important to find the new way to produce hydrogen utilizing water without producing any environmentally harmful by-products. In our research, we use microwave water plasma and photocatalyst to improve dissociation rate of water. At low pressure plasma, electron have high energy but density is low, so temperature of reactor is low. This may cause of recombination in the generated hydrogen and oxygen from splitting water. If it want to high dissociation rate of water, it is necessary to control of recombination of the hydrogen and oxygen using photocatalyst. We utilize the photocatalytic material($TiO_2$, ZnO) coated plasma reactor to use UV in the plasma. The quantity of hydrogen generated was measured by a Residual Gas Analyzer.

Hydrogen-dimethy ether(DME) partially premixed compression ignition(PCCI) engine combustion was investigated in a single cylinder compression ignition engine. Hydrogen and DME were used as low carbon alternative fuels to reduce green house gases and pollutant. Hydrogen was injected at the intake manifold with an injection pressure of 0.5 MPa at fixed injection timing, $-210^{\circ}CA$ aTDC. DME was injected directly into the cylinder through the common-rail injection system at injection pressure of 30 MPa. DME inejction timing was varied to find the optimum PCCI combustion to reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. When DME was injected early, CO and HC emissions were high while NOx emission was low. As the DME injection was retarded, the CO and HC emissions were decreased due to high combustion efficiency. NOx emissions were increased due to the high in-cylinder temperature. When DME were injected at $-30^{\circ}CA$ aTDC, reduction of HC, CO and NOx emissions was possible with high value of IMEP.

국내에서 구입이 용이한 단일충전재(부숙수피, 펄라이트)와 혼합충전재(부숙수피와 펄라이트의 부피비 7:3)에 암모니아 산화균 Rhodococcus equi A3와 황 산화균 Alcaligenes sp. S5-5.2를 접종한 후, 양압식 상향류식의 lab-scale 바이오필터에 각각의 충전재를 충전하여 암모니아 및 황화수소에 대한 악취가스 제거 성능을 평가 한 결과, 혼합충전재가 단일 충전재에 비하여 악취제거 성능이 우수한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 암모니아의 경우 $180.0{\pm}20.0mg\;L^{-1}$ 농도로 유입되는 상황에서 $70.0{\pm}0.8mg\;L^{-1}$로 배출되어 제거율이 96.1%이었으며, 그리고 황화수소의 경우 $11.0{\pm}5.0mg\;L^{-1}$ 농도로 유입되는 상황에서 $1.0{\pm}0.4mg\;L^{-1}$로 배출되어 제거율이 91.1%이었다. 또한 이때의 미생물 생균수는 실험기간 동안 접종 초기 미생물 생균수와 거의 같게 유지되었다. 따라서 부숙수피와 펄라이트를 혼합하여 만든 혼합충전재의 악취제거 성능이 우수하고 가격이 저렴한 것을 고려해 볼 때, 혼합충전재가 기존의 다른 충전재보다 대규모 축산농가에서 현실적으로 이용하는데 유리할 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the world faces the environmental problem such as air pollution due to harmful gas discharged from car and abnormal climate due to the green-house gases increased by the discharge of $CO_2$. Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), one of alternative for this problem, is less harmful, compared to the existing fossil fuel, as gaseous fuel, and less carbon in fuel ingredients and carbon dioxide generation rate relatively favorable more than the existing fuel. However, CNG fuel has the weakness of slow flame propagation speed and difficult fast burn. On the other hand, hydrogen does not include carbon in fuel ingredients, and does not discharge harmful gas such as CO and HC. Moreover, it has strength of quick burning velocity and ignition is possible with small ignition energy source and it's has wide Lean Flammability Limit. If using this hydrogen with CNG fuel, the characteristics of output and discharge gas is improved by the mixer's burning velocity improved, and, at the same time, is possible to have stable lean combustion with the reduction of $CO_2$ expected. Therefore, this research tries to identify the characteristics of engine and emission gas when mixing CNG fuel and hydrogen in each portion and burning them in spark igniting engine, and grasp the combustion stability and emission gas characteristics according and use it as the basic data of hydrogen-CNG premixed engine.

세계적으로 강화되는 오염물질 배출규제와 유가의 급등은 미래 수송수단의 변화를 가져올 것으로 예상된다. 새로운 대체에너지가 나타나기 까지는 화석연료를 대체할 에너지원으로 수소가 가장 유력하다. 가까운 미래의 항공기는 수소 가스터빈엔진이나 연료전지와 같은 동력장치를 사용할 것으로 과학자들은 예측하고 있다. 향후 연료전지 동력 항공기가 실현되기 위해서는 동력밀도가 높은 연료전지, 고압의 기체 또는 액체상태의 수소연료저장 장치, 그리고 경량의 고효율 전기모터가 개발되어야 한다.
