한국원자력연구원 방사성폐기물 저장시설에는 2006년 기준으로 약 1,000 여개(200L 환산)의 폐필터가 저장중이며, 그 발생량은 계속 증가하는 추세에 있다. 현재 저장시설의 저장 공간 확보뿐만 아니라 폐필터의 효율적인 관리를 위하여 비닐 백에 넣어 저장 및 관리되고 있는 폐필터들을 적절한 압축 처리 과정을 거쳐 최종적으로 규격화된 드럼에 포장하려는 계획을 가지고 있다. 이를 위해, 먼저 과거 발생이력을 조사함으로서 저장중인 폐필터들의 분류를 통한 그룹화를 수행하였다. 또한 드럼포장을 위해서는 사전에 핵종평가가 수행되어야 하며, 그 방법으로는 폐필터의 해체 없이 표면선량률을 측정하여 대표시료를 채취하며, 이 시료에 대하여 방사성폐기물 인도규정에서 요구하는 수준의 핵종분석을 수행할 것이다. 그리고 드럼포장을 위해, 방사성폐기물 처리시설에서 개발된 폐필터 처리장치를 이용하여 직육면체 형의 폐필터를 원주형 성형을 함으로서 드럼에 넣은 후, 최종적으로 수직 압축함으로써 폐필터를 처리하고자 한다.

In developing the assemble HEPA(High Efficiency Particulate Air) Filter, the main frame and sub frame can be easily assembled and disassembled and tightly sealed. The sub frame(included Media) will be made of the manageable material. so it will be easily compacted with the spent filter compactor. It does not take a lot of time for disassembling the spent filter. The main frame can be recycled and the volume of the spent filter is reduced, so the cost for treating the radioactive waste is reduce. And the changing costs can be reduced, because the cost of the media is lower than the filter.

As coffee consumption per person increases annually to 323 cups in 2018, treating the spent coffee ground has arisen because spent coffee ground results in soil and air pollution. The demands of air purification filters are increasing more and more because the air pollution due to the fine dust has become worse. The spent coffee grounds had a porous structure, however, the pore was blocked by organic oil compounds. Electrocoagulation, which is one of the electrochemical methods, has the potential to remove the organic compounds. The surface area of spent coffee grounds increased effectively after the electrocoagulation treatment, and surface morphology and surface area were confirmed using SEM and BET, respectively. Using the FT-IR, both the spent coffee grounds and the electrocoagulated spent coffee grounds were characterized. The filter characteristics were examined by the adsorption test using formaldehyde, one of the air pollutants.

Spent filters with a high radiation dose rate of 2 mSv·hr^-1 or more are not easily managed. So far, the Korean policy for spent filter disposal is to store them temporarily at nuclear power plants until the waste filters can be easily managed. Nuclear power plant decommissioning in Korea is starting with Kori unit 1. Volume reduction of waste generated during decommissioning can reduce the cost and optimize the space usage at disposal site. Therefore, efficient volume reduction is a very important factor during the decommissioning process. A conceptual method, based on the experiences of developing 200 and 800 ton compactors at Orion EnC, has been developed considering worker exposure with the followings a crusher (upgrade of compaction efficiency), an automatic dose measuring system with a NaI(Tl) detector, a shield box, an inner drum to prepare for easy handling of drums and packaging, a 30 ton compactor, and an automatic robot system. This system achieves a volume reduction ratio of up to 85.7%; hence, the system can reduce the disposal cost and waste volume. It can be applied to other types of wastes that are not easily managed due to high dose rates and remote control operation necessity.

처분시설은 폐쇄 후 제도적 관리기간 동안에는 처분 부지로의 일반인의 접근을 제한하며 제도적 관리기간 이후에는 부주의 한 인간침입 시에도 처분시설로 인한 방사선적 영향으로부터 침입자를 보호하도록 설계 되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 처분시설이 부주의한 침입자에 미칠 수 있는 방사선적 영향을 GENII 프로그램을 사용하여 평가해보았다. 처분고별 적치되는 방사성폐기물의 종류를 달리하여 평가하고 제도적 관리기간 설정에 따른 침입자에 대한 영향도 분석하였다. 평가결과 제도적 관리기간을 두지 않아도 폐필터가 적치된 처분고를 제외하고 모두 성능 목표치를 만족하였다. 하지만 폐필터를 적치한 처분고의 경우 인간침입 평가결과 제도적 관리기간 300년이 되어서야 성능목표치를 만족할 수 있었다. 폐필터와 함께 잡고체 폐기물을 혼합하여 적치하는 경우 제도적 관리기간을 줄일 수 있었으며, 폐필터는 다른 폐기물과 함께 적치하여 제도적 관리기간을 줄이는 것이 필요하다. 폐기물 적치시 방사능을 고려하여 처분고 적치방안을 적절히 수립하는 것이 국부적인 방사능의 최대값을 줄일 수 있어 방사선적 안전성을 확보하며 제도적 관리기간을 단축할 수 있어 바람직하다.

We are developing a vol-oxidizer which transforms the spent $UO_2$ pellets into the $U_3O_8$ power through oxidizing process. The vol-oxidizer consists of furnace, filter, heater and valve etc. When the filter is blocked by the powder, the internal pressure of the furnace is increased owing to the air flow restriction. Then, the furnace vessel is swelled and deformed by it. In this paper, we proposed a procedure of the thermal analysis for furnace vessel design of spent fuel vol-oxidizer. In this work, we determined the thickness of the furnace through analyzing the internal pressure and the thermal stress of the furnace with respect to various pressure and temperature. To analyze the thermal stress, we used ANSYS 8.0 for constructing a FEM model of the furnace, and then analyzed it based on the ASME code. We also surveyed the material property and yield stress of SUS304 with various temperature. Analysis results are compared with the yield stress of the material. We manufactured the furnace and conduct the verification experiments.

To reduce the storage space of spent fuel used at the atomic power plants in the over the world, the uranium elements contained in the spent fuel is being extracted and effectively stored. For this, the spent fuel are oxidized and deoxidized. In this study, it is produced the heat-resisting methods about the spent fuel management technology research and test facility for the spent fuel waste for spent fuel minimized. The first considered processes in the facility are the electrolytic metal reduction reactor process. Since the electrolytic metal reduction reactor is operated at the high temperature range, we have to consider the heat-resisting methods for the devices. For the heat-resisting methods, we have searched and analyzed technical reference for the heat-resisting methods. We have calculated thermal stress and strain of each devices by the commercial analysis software, ANSYS. D.S. It is experimented for inspecting confidence rate of analysis results. By using the results, we have analyzed the problems of parts and determined the heat-resisting material, commercial parts, and the size of parts and O-ring. Based on these results, it is produced the heat-resisting methods of magnesia filter, cathode, and reactor for the electrolytic metal reduction reactor.

A shared compliant control scheme based on IMC is proposed for the position-force force reflecting control system. The controller of the slave manipulator is designed by IMC method for the open loop unstable plant. The compliant control is implemented by first order low pass filter. In the proposed scheme, the slave manipulator well tracks the position of the master manipulator in free space and the compliance of the slave manipulator is autonomously controlled in contact condition. The simulation results show that the excellence of the proposed controller.

This study was conducted in order to perform efficient extraction of lignocellulolytic enzymes amylase (EC 3.2.1.1), cellulase (EC 3.2.1.4), laccase (EC 1.10.3.2), and xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) from spent mushroom compost (SMC) of Pleurotus ostreatus, P. eryngii, and P. cornucopiae. Optimal enzyme recovery was achieved when SMCs were extracted with 50 mM sodium citrate (pH 4.5) buffer at $4^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. Amylase, cellulase, and xylanase activities showed high values in extracts from P. ostreatus SMC, with 2.97 U/g, 1.67 U/g, and 91.56 U/g, respectively, whereas laccase activity and filter paper degradation ability were highest in extracts from P. eryngii SMC, with values of 9.01 U/g and 0.21 U/g, respectively. Enzymatic activities varied according to the SMCs released from different mushroom farms. The synthetic dyes remazol brilliant blue R and Congo red were decolorized completely by the SMC extract of P. eryngii within 120 min, and the decolorization ability of the extract was comparable to that of 0.3 U of commercial laccase. In addition, laccase activity of the SMC extract from P. eryngii was compared to that of commercial enzymes or its industrial application in decolorization.
