국제해사기구의 선박배출가스 규제 등의 환경규제 강화로 세계 주요 국가에서는 선박배출가스에 대한 3가지 솔루션 중에서 LNG연료를 장기적 솔루션으로 추진하는 국가와 기업이 늘어나고 있다. 본 연구에서는 세계적으로 LNG벙커링에 대한 비즈니스를 어떠한 형태로 이끌어 가는지에 대한 고찰로서, 주요 국가인 일본, 중국, 싱가포르의 아시아 지역과 유럽 그리고 미국을 중심으로 비즈니스 모델 관점에서 분석을 하였다. 연구결과 중국은 국가 위주의 LNG벙커링 정책 수립 후에 국가와 에너지 회사가 제휴하여 LNG연료추진선박용 LNG벙커링 비즈니스를 진행하여 있음을 발견하였다. 유럽 일부와 미국은 순수한 민간회사 위주의 LNG벙커링 비즈니스가 진행되고 있으며, 민간회사는 현재 선박유보다 저렴한 LNG연료 확보를 위하여 LNG터미널, 천연가스 액화플랜트 등의 중상류 사업자와의 제휴를 통해 가격 경쟁력이 높은 LNG를 확보하면서 자사 LNG연료추진선박에 LNG벙커링을 하는 비즈니스 모델을 가지고 있다. 전 세계 LNG벙커링 비즈니스는 공기업보다는 민간기업 위주로 진행되고 있으며, LNG벙커링 인프라 구축에는 초기비용이 필요하여 대부분 에너지 대기업 위주로 비즈니스가 진행되고 있었다. LNG벙커링 비즈니스는 현재 3가지 모델(TOTE 모델, Shell 모델, ENGIE 모델)이 개발 되고 있다. 국가별로 LNG벙커링 비즈니스 추진 방식은 기업 및 국가 정책에 따라 다르게 적용된다는 것을 발견하였다.

DME (Di-Methyl Ether) is a new clean fuel and an environmental-friendly energy resource, also is recently increasing with an alternative interest because of the industrial use. DME has been shown to have excellent properties as a diesel fuel giving emission level better than ULEV standard. So it has been attracting considerable as an alternative diesel fuel. In this study, we carried out simulation of separation and purification process of demo plant for 101on per day DME production, which cause the effect that is important in productivity, from operation results of pilot plant for 50kg per day DME production. The liquefied stream, which was separated by gas-liquid separator after DME reactor, includes $CO_2$, DME, Methanol and $H_2O$. We established three distillation columns for separation and purification of the stream. $CO_2$ was extracted from the stream by first distillation column, DME was extracted by second column and Methanol was extracted by third column. We investigated and analyzed the effect which the actual operation variables cause in efficiency of process and optimized process, finally we got the DME of purity $100\%$.

A survey is carried out for the future energy sources to be used for ship's propulsion and ship's machinery and operations. 44 global experts from Korea, America, Norway, Denmark, Japan and German who are currently working in the shipyard and offshore fields participated at the survey. Quantitative predications on the market shares of various energy sources, such as oil, LNG, fuel cell, wind energy, solar energy and nuclear energy are made. MPI (market prediction index) is considered as a quantitative index for easy comparison between future's energy sources used for ship's propulsion and operations. It is expected that the MPI of LNG becomes twofold in 2020 against 'before 2016'. It could be also said that hydrogen based fuel cell is expected to increase rapidly for the coming years unless a new alternative energy appears.

본 논문에서는 LNG 추진선박에서 발생하는 BOG(boil-off gas)를 이용하여 수소를 생산하고 수소 연료전지 시스템을 보조엔진으로 적용한 개질공정의 특성에 대한 연구를 수행했다. 연구를 위해 BOG 수증기 개질공정을 UniSim R410 프로그램을 이용해 공정설계하고, 개질기의 출구온도와 압력, SCR(steam carbon ratio)에 따른 생성물의 분율과 반응물의 소모량을 산출하였다. 연구 결과 개질온도가 890℃일때 메탄의 반응률이 100 %였으며, 최대 수소 생산량을 보였다. 또한 개질압력이 낮을수록 반응 활성도가 높았다. 하지만 그 이상의 온도가 되면 역반응의 우세로 인해 수소의 생산량은 감소하게 되고, 물과 이산화탄소의 양은 증가했다. 또한 SCR이 증가할수록 수소 생산량도 증가했으나 요구되는 에너지 소비량도 비례하여 증가했다. SCR이 1.8일 때 수소분율이 가장 높았으나 코킹방지를 위해 SCR이 3에서 운전하는 것이 최적 운전범위임을 확인했다. 그리고 개질압력이 낮을수록 발생되는 이산화탄소의 양은 증가했으며, 냉각 및 액화를 위해서는 이산화탄소 발생량을 기준으로 42.5 %의 LNG 냉열이 요구됨을 알 수 있었다.

Nowadays LNG has been beginning to take the place of petroleum as fuel all over the world and VLCC of LNG will take the same sea routes that had been used by VLCC tankers of petroleum in the last part of the 20th century. The transportation of LNG by a VLCC include more dangerous nature of sea peril than that of petroleum. We already know the dimensions of a disaster a LNG tanker could bring about in the case of the LNG tanker, Yuyo-Maru No. 10 in the Tokyo Bay of Japan in 1974. From the point of safety when we construct a LNG base or LNG pier in the base, the appropriate government authority and constructing company had better take sea pilots or some ships handling experts to participate in a prior consultation of the design of the project. A G/T 100,000 ton LNG base and pier were completed in November of 1996 in Inchon harbour in Korea and VLCC of LNG of G/T 100,000 ton class have been entering into the base ever since. This study was started and completed In comply with the requisition of the Sea Pilot Association of Inchon harbour in advance of the opening of the LNG base. As the entrance and exit channels leading to Inchon harbour were constructed in the years of 1930s, it was one of the most pressing works for Inchon sea pilots in 1996 to certify the method of safe passing maneuvering of a G/T 100,000 ton of LNG tanker through the Pudo narrow channel prior to commencing actual piloting of the VLCC of LNG. The authors made some mathematical models computing maneuvering of a vessel changing her course with her control surface through a narrow channel and computed maneuvering of a G/T 100,000 ton of LNG tanker and also made maneuvering simulations of the vessel by a desk-top simulator. The results of computations and simulations are well coincided with each other in qualitative aspects to assure safe passing of the VLCC of LNG.

Among the currently available types of fuel, LNG emits a relatively small amount of nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide when it burns in the engine. However, since LNG is a flammable material, leakage during bunkering can lead to accidents, such as fires. Therefore, it is necessary to install a remote operation emergency shut-down (ESD) valve to block the flow and leakage of LNG in an emergency situation that occurs during bunkering. The ESD valve uses a hydraulic driving device consisting of a hydraulic control valve and a hydraulic motor to control globe valve disc displacement, which regulates the flow path for LNG transfer. At this time, there are various nonlinearities in hydraulic driving devices; hence, it is necessary to design a controller with robust control performance against these uncertainties. In this study, modeling of the ESD valve was carried out, and a sliding mode controller to control the displacement of the globe valve disc was designed. As a result, it was confirmed that the designed control performance could be achieved by overcoming nonlinearity characteristics using the designed controller.

Since IMO has discussed the effectuation of the EEDI, EEOI and SEEMP, each country, shipping company, shipbuilding company and research institute have been requested to prepare the design, construction and operation of the efficient ship. From the shipbuilding company's point of view, it was necessary to develop a method based on the maneuvering equations of motion in a bid to estimate the EEOI considering the design, model test results and the calculation results of the ship. In this paper, the estimation method of RPM, power and fuel consumption proposed in the previous research was developed to construct a framework that helps in the estimation of the EEOI. It was possible to estimate the EEOI from the estimated ship speed (distance), LNG cargo mass, fuel consumptions and emission factors according to the type of fuel. The rapid increase of the evaluated EEOI was observed when the LNGC with ME-GI engine executing the course changed with a large difference. This prompted the comparison of the type of fuel on the estimated EEOI by considering HFO, LNG fuel and MGO properties.

Recently, an automobile market used to natural gas has emerged as fast-growing as the several countries, who holds abundant natural fuel resources, has promoted to supply the national agency for an automobile car. LNG fuel vessel is more efficient in another way as the energy density is high, but it requires a high technology and investment to maintain extreme low temperature. CNG fuel vessel are relatively low-cost alternative to LNG, but poorly economical in terms of energy density as well as showing safety issues associated with compressed pressure. The development of adsorbed natural gas (ANG) has emerged as one of potential solutions. Therefore, it is desirable to reduce the weight of vessel by applying light-weighed a composite carbon fiber in order to response to the regulation of $CO_2$ emission. Herein, this study make the prototype ANG vessel not only based on the optimal design and analysis of material characteristic but also based on the shape design, and it suggest a new type for the composite carbon fiber vessel which verified functional test. Moreover, the detail shape design is analyzed by a finite element analysis, and its verifies the ANG vessel.
