A questionary survey was conducted to investigate citizen's attitude to treatment facilities of municipal solid waste in Miryang during 8. June of 1998 and 22 June of 1988. Collection effiencies was 86.7%, as 260 individuals of the 300 individuals. The survey showed that 43.0% of answers recognized seriousness of problem of the waste treatment and 33.1% of respondents concerned about recycle of organic waste. 40.8% of total answers said that they most hated landfill site among waste treatment facilities, and most citizens wanted as much distant as possible from waste treatment facilities. It was investigated that the greater part of respondents wanted the greatest compensation. About 58% of respondents was opposed to complete waste treatment facilities. 36.2$ among answers wanted establishment of waste treatment facilities in an industrial complex or an industrial area. The majority of respondents was willing to increase recycle rate and recognized seriousness of landfill site security. The majority of citizens do not trust environmental administration of Miryang City and they think that democracy and open of administration need for overcome MINBY.

According to the National Fire Agency, there are 1,810 waste recycling facilities, 2,094 waste treatment facilities, and 223 waste minimization facilities in Korea. Waste fires are characterized by high severity and are prone to reignition, and it is difficult to timely detect them. Waste fires consequently demand many firefighters, equipment, and time to extinguish. Notwithstanding this reality, waste is excluded from the category of special combustible materials in the Act on Installation and Management of Firefighting Systems, 2021 (the Act). Therefore, this study proposes that special combustible materials, including waste, should be incorporated into the Act, that fire detectors and photoelectric smoke detectors should be installed to enable early detection of fires, and that the use of water and foaming agents as firefighting equipment should be enforced.

Concentrations of the principal volatile organic compounds, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m,p,o-xylene, styrene, and chlorobenzene were measured at the solid waste treatment plants classified into four categories; municipal waste incinerator, municipal waste landfill site, industrial waste incinerator and industrial waste landfill site. The average concentration of VOCs in industrial waste treatment facilities was 33.43 ppb and was significantly higher than that measured at municipal waste treatment facilities (4.71 ppb). The average toluene concentrations measured at incinerators (13.05 ppb) were a little higher than those measured at landfill sites (11.54 ppb). The contribution of the waste treatment facilities to the concentration of benzene (0.35 ppb) and o-xylene (0.15 ppb) in the industrial area was relatively small. However, toluene measured in the industrial waste treatment facilities was the most abundant VOCs with the average concentration of 21.37 ppb. As a result of analyses of fingerprint, in cases of IISH and ILUS, a variety of compounds other than major VOCs were detected in high level. On the Pearson correlation analysis, the correlation was generally positive and some pairs of these VOCs were very strongly correlated (correlation coefficient > 0.75).

The method of residential waste and food waste collecting is changed into automatic waste collection(AWC) system from direct collection by human resource. To solve the problem caused by odour from AWC facilities, the structure of input facilities, conveying pipes and collecting facilities have been changed into closed and sealed construction to enclosed the facilities and collect odour efficiently. Based on cases and experiences, to treat variable odour matters which are caused by food waste, chemical cleaning method is preferable method to cope with odour caused by food waste.

Waste to Energy Plant were recognized as hateful facilities, and there were many conflicts in the location due to social problems such as the NIMBY phenomenon due to problems such as damage to property in the surrounding area, odor, and image loss. Problems such as air pollution and odor are solved by the development of advanced prevention facilities such as electric dust collectors, wet cleaning systems, semi-dry reaction towers, bag filters, and catalyst towers (SCR: Selective Catalytic Reduction), and air recycling facilities in waste storage tanks. However, it is being avoided because of the perception that it is an incinerator. To resolve these conflicts, the government installs and operates resident convenience facilities to compensate residents near resource recovery facilities, provides green space and improves the environment, and supports heating expenses in accordance with the 「Waste Treatment Facility Support Act」. The purpose of this study is to derive implications through the analysis of domestic and overseas case studies for resident convenience facilities and environment improvement for the promotion of local communities in resource recovery facilities and use them as basic data for community promotion and environmental improvement when installing resource recovery facilities in the future.

The current study relates to RADAR (RAdio Detection and Ranging) application for level measurement of vitrified radioactive liquid nuclear waste. The vitrification of radioactive liquid waste is carried out in special equipment called 'Melters'. The study is directed towards the design and frequency modulation used in the level measurement of vitrified waste. More specifically, the RADAR design and frequency used for level measurement in a melter. This level measurement technique can also be used for dynamic vitrification process and can be used to measure the level variations without using any external medium/material and using only electromagnetic waves. Also, this technique is durable and accurate even under the high radioactive environment present inside the melter.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the economic valuation of rural waste disposal facilities that are one of the rural environmental improvement projects using contingent valuation method(CVM) in Gyongsangbuk-do, Korea. This study surveyed 1,089 households about the WTP(Willing To Pay) of rural waste disposal facilities policy in Gyongsangbuk-do and it was composed with city level and town level. The overall results show that the respondents well accepted the contingent market and would be willing to pay(WTP) a significant amount for the proposed policy program of rural waste disposal facilities. The values estimated for the rural waste disposal facilities are as follows : 1. The maximum WTP was \10,466 in City level and it was \9,104 in town level by per year. 2. The mean WTP was \9,257 in City revel and it was \8,636 in town lever by per year. 3. Total economic benefits for the household amounted to \7,989,046,270 per year. This result can be used to useful base data fir the policy programs of rural waste disposal facilities.

폐기물처리시설의 지속적인 설치·정기검사에도 불구하고 현장 처리시설에서는 과다소각, 불법투기 악취 등에 대한 민원이 지속적으로 발생하는 것으로 보아 현재의 폐기물처리시설 설치정기 검사방법의 개선이 필요하다고 판단되었다 이에 현재 운영중인 폐기물처리시설(6개분야)을 대상으로 현장조사를 실시하여 각 분야별 폐기물처리공정을 파악하고 검사에 적용된 주요한 운영인자를 파악하고, 주요공정별 물질·에너지수지를 산정하여 폐기물처리시설의 적정 운영 여부를 확인하였다. 주요 운영인자 조사 결과 소각 및 시멘트 소성로, 소각열회수시설 등의 경우 소각에 필요한 소각로의 온도 유지 및 발생되는 대기오염물질의 처리가 가장 주요한 인자였으며, 매립시설의 경우 옹벽의 안정성, 매립 후 발생되는 침출수 및 배출가스 관리가 주요한 인자로 나타났다. 멸균·분쇄시설의 경우 멸균여부(아포균검사)가 가장 중요한 주요인자 이었으며, 음식물류폐기물처리시설의 경우 발효(소화, 부숙) 시 체류시간 및 악취관리가 주요한 인자로 나타났다. 또한 물질에너지수지 산정 결과 소각시설의 경우 폐기물 투입량 대비 바닥재 발생량은 약 14%, 비산재 발생량은 약 3%로 적정 운영되고 있을을 확인하였다. 또한 음식물류폐기물시설 중 혐기성분해시설의 경우 유입량 대비 바이오가스 발생량은 약 17%, 바이오가스 전환효율은 약 81%로 나타났고, 퇴비화시설의 경우 유입폐기물 대비 약 11%의 퇴비가 생산되어 모두 적정운영 되고있음을 확인하였다. 이에 따라 폐기물처리시설 검사방법의 고도화를 이루기 위해 세부검사방법의 정량적 기준 적립 뿐만 아니라 각 시설의 정기검사 시 1년간의 운영자료 등을 수집하여 폐기물의 흐름을 파악하고 처리시설의 적정운영 여부를 판단한다면, 처리시설의 운영 및 관리효율이 상승할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to democractically resolve the "not-in-my-backyard" (Nimby syndrome) which is widespread in Korea, the policy of the Ministry of Environmnt(MOE) is that the MOE is willing to negotiate with local inhabitants who refuse to allow the establishment of waste treatment facilities, and that such facilities will be safety and effectively constructed and managed. According to this policy, the MOE has developed a basic plan to construct 255 incinerators by the year 2001, and establish 42 sanitary landfill sites and 5 specific waste treatment facilities in 1994.s in 1994.
