Combustion of refuse derived fuel(RDF) and refuse plastic fuel (RPF) was carried out in a lab-scale circulating fluidized bed. Experiment was investigated cold flow visualization. RDF was made by C & tech and RPF was made by KRS. The results include distribution of temperature in the combustion chamber, and concentrations of flue gas such as $O_2$, $CO_2$, CO, $NO_x$ and HCs Micro G.C(gas chromatograph) was employed to find out concentration of He Temperature distribution was different when RDF and RPF were burnt respectably. As air ratio became increased, $CO_2$, CO, and total of HCs emissions were decreased. According to the number of carbon atom of HCs, HC were classified as five kinds of HC.

The aim of this study is to find out the condition that generates maximum $H_2$ through the calculation of equilibrium model with conditions of pyrolysis gases of Refuse Plastic Fuel(RPF). This study deals with the computational simulation of a RPF gasification using an equilibrium model based on minimization of the Gibbs free energy. An equilibrium analysis was carried out to determine species composition of Syngas in RPF gasification and reactions to variation of temperature, $O_2$/Fuel ratio and Steam/Fuel ratio. Calculated results showed that $O_2$/Fuel ratio, Steam/Fuel ratio and temperature affected on mole fraction of $H_2$, CO.

The co-combustion of coal and RPF(Refuse Plastic Fuel) mixture has been experimented in a commercially operating CFB coal boiler and the emissions such as SOx, NOx, TSP and dioxine were measured at the stack. The experimented RPF was supplied by domestic RPF company that is commercially producing RPF pellet from the wasted plastics. Up to 15% of total coal was substituted to RPF and no trouble was happened during normal boiler operation. SOx and NOx concentration was reduced about $15{\sim}20$% and TSP(Total Suspended Particle) was drastically reduced about 30% during co-combustion. Dioxine concentration at mixing ratio of 7.5% was $0.0487ng{\sim}TEQ/Sm^3$ ($O_2$, 12%) that satisfied governmental emission regulation.

Calculated results shows that hydrocarbons in pyrolyzed gas are converted to synthesis gas which is formed on hydrogen and carbon monoxide.

RDF 생산 기술은 국내 실정에 맞는 제조 설비로 자체 생산할 수 있는 단계이지만, 사업장 가연성 폐기물에 대한 연료화 설비가 구축된 사례는 드물다. 본 연구에서는 사업장 가연성 폐기물을 대상으로 한 RPF(Refuse Plastic Fuel) 제조 공정의 고형연료 제조 가능성에 대해 검토하였다. 고형연료는 폐합성수지, 폐지 및 폐목재의 지역별 폐기물 발생비율 기준으로 제조되었으며, 제조된 RPF의 물리적 특성을 조사하였다. 대경(대구, 경북)지역을 기준으로 제조된 RPF의 발열량이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 폐지와 폐목재의 첨가량이 늘어날수록 발열량은 감소하였다.

The electrochemical reaction of refuse derived fuel (RDF) and refuse plastic/paper fuel (RPF) was investigated in the direct carbon fuel cell (DCFC) system. The open circuit voltage (OCV) of RPF was higher than RDF and other coals because of its thermal reactive characteristic under carbon dioxide. The thermal reactivity of fuels was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis method. and the reaction rate of RPF was higher than other fuels. The behavior of all sample's potential was analogous in the beginning region of electrochemical reactions due to similar functional groups on the surface of fuels analyzed by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy experiments. The potential level of RDF and RPF decreased rapidly comparing to coals in the next of the electrochemical reaction because the surface area and pore volume investigated by nitrogen gas adsorption tests were smaller than coals. This characteristic signifies the contact surface between electrolyte and fuel is restricted. The potential of fuels was maintained to the high current density region over 40 $mA/cm^2$ by total carbon component. The maximum power density of RDF and RPF reached up to 45~70% comparing to coal. The obvious improvement of maximum power density by increasing operating temperature was observed in both refuse fuels.

The purpose of this study was to develop a $CO_2$ emission factor for refuse plastic fuel (RPF) combustion facilities, and calculate the $CO_2$ emissions from these facilities. The $CO_2$ reduction from using these facilities was analyzed by comparing $CO_2$ emission to facilities using fossil fuels. The average $CO_2$ emission factor from RPF combustion facilities was 59.7 Mg $CO_2$/TJ. In addition, fossil fuel and RPF use were compared using net calorific value (NCV). Domestic RPF consumption in 2011 was 240,000 Mg/yr, which was compared to fossil fuels using NCV. B-C oil use, which has the same NCV, was equal to RPF use. In contrast, bituminous and anthracite were estimated at 369,231 Mg/yr and 355,556 Mg/yr, respectively. In addition, the reduction in $CO_2$ emissions due to the alternative fuel was analyzed. $CO_2$ emissions were reduced by more than 350 Mg $CO_2$/yr compared to bituminous and anthracite. We confirmed that using RPF, an alternative fuel, can reduce $CO_2$ emissions.

The co-combustion of coal and three kinds of RDFs(Refuse Plastic Fuel) mixture has been experimented in a commercially operating CFB coal boiler respectively and the pollutant emissions such as SOx, NOx, TSP and dioxine were measured at the stack. The mixing ratio with coal was 7.5% RPF, 7.5% RDF and 10% SDF respectively. During co-combustion, dioxine emission level was very low and SOx, NOx and TSP were decreased comparing the single coal combustion. Emitting dioxine concentration was proportioned to the chlorine content of RDF. These RPF, SDF and RDF could be determined to be a good alternative fuel of general coal.

본 연구에서는 국내 상용 순환유동층 보일러에서 아역청탄과 혼소용 연료로 사용예정인 폐플라스틱 고형연료(RPF)의 열분해 반응특성을 규명하기 위해 열천칭 반응기를 이용하여 등온(350, 375, 400, 425, 450, 500, $850^{\circ}C$) 열분해 실험을 수행하였다. 등온 열분해 결과, 반응온도 구간 $375{\sim}450^{\circ}C$에서의 반응모델 변화는 관찰되지 않았으며, 12개 반응모델 중 1차 화학반응(F1)이 가장 적합한 반응모델로 판명되었다. 이때 Arrhenius 식을 사용하여 계산한 활성화에너지는 39.44 kcal/mol이었으며, Iso-conversional 방법을 적용할 경우 활성화에너지 평균값($0.5{\leq}X{\leq}0.9$ 구간)은 36.96 kcal/mol로 반응모델 결정 여부와 관계없이 유사한 값을 보였다. 한편 순환유동층보일러의 운전온도인 $850^{\circ}C$에서 RPF 입도(d) 변화에 따른 탈휘발 시간은 $t_{dev}=10.38d^{2.88}$으로 표현할 수 있었으며, 보일러 내부에서 RPF가 균일하게 연소되기 위해서는 연료 입도와 평균 분산 거리(x)가 $x{\leq}1.58d^{1.44}$의 상관관계를 만족하여야 함을 확인할 수 있었다.
