  • It is important to know the accurate radionuclide inventory of radioactive waste for the reliable management. However, estimation of radionuclide concentrations in drummed radioactive waste is difficult and unreliable because of difficulties of direct detection, high cost, and radiation exposure of sampling personnel. In order to overcome these difficulties, scaling factors (SFs) have been used to assess the activities of radionuclides that could not be directly analyzed. A radionuclide assay system has been operated at KORI site since 1996 and consolidated scaling factor method has played a dominant role in determination of radionuclides concentrations. However, some problems are still remained such as uncertainty of estimated scaling factor values, inaccuracy of analyzed sample values, and disparity between the actual and ideal correlation pairs and the others. Therefore, it needs to improve the accuracy of scaling factor values. The scope of this paper is focused on the improvement of accuracy and representativeness of calculated scaling factor values based on statistical techniques. For the selection of reliable activity determination method, the accuracy of estimated SF values for each activity determination method is compared. From the comparison of each activity determination methods, it is recommended that SF determination method should be changed from the arithmetic mean to the geometrical mean for more reliable estimation of radionuclide activity. Arithmetic mean method and geometric mean method are compared based on the data set in KORI system.

  • Sudokwon landfill("Sudokwon" means regions of Seoul, Kyunggi and Incheon metropolitan cities in Korea), the world's largest sanitary landfill, has been systematically managing statistics on the incoming and dumping wastes and satisfactorily controlling pollutants including leachate and LFG. According to our long time experience of LFG field monitoring, the emission of GHG from landfill estimated by the IPCC Guideline showed much difference with our results. C&D waste has high concentration of sulfate compared to other wastes. Increased C&D waste of dumping waste had changed the COD/sulfate ratio in the landfill, which caused the increase of H2S gas and the decrease of CH4 gas. But the IPCC estimation method does not consider the effects of sulfate. In addition to that, the oxidation factor of the cover soil is set to the default values of 0.1 but the measured values by the field monitoring, are showing much higher than that, especially in the closed landfill.

  • 우리나라는 폐기물의 에너지화를 통해 기후변화와 에너지 부족 문제를 극복하려고 하고 있으며, 폐기물을 에너지화하려는 지속적인 노력에 따라 폐기물 소각처리가 점차 확대되고 있다. 이에 따른 폐기물 소각에서의 온실가스 배출량은 점차 증가할 전망이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 열 회수를 통해 열과 전력을 생산하는 생활폐기물 소각장을 대상시설로 선정하였다. 대상시설로 선정된 폐기물 소각발전시설에서 배출되는 온실가스 배출량을 산정하기 위한 방법을 모색하고, 온실가스 배출량 및 배출계수를 산정하였다. 대상시설에서의 $CO_2$ 배출농도는 평균 6.99%로 나타났으며, 이를 온실가스 배출량으로 산정한 결과, 총 배출량은 $254.60ton\;CO_2/day$로 나타났다. 바이오매스 소각에 의해 배출된 온실가스를 제외한 순 배출량은 $110.59ton\;CO_2/day$로 나타났다. 또한, 온실가스 배출량을 소각시설에서 생산된 열과 전력으로 구분하여 배출량을 산정한 후, 각각의 생산단위 당 온실가스 배출량으로 온실가스 배출계수를 산정하였다. 산정된 열 배출계수는 $0.047ton\;CO_2/GJ$, 전력 배출계수는 $0.652ton\;CO_2/MWh$로 나타났다. 산정된 전력 배출계수는 화석연료를 사용하는 화력발전소의 전력배출계수인 $0.783ton\;CO_2/MWh$보다 약 17% 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 산정된 온실가스 배출량 및 배출계수에 중요한 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 폐기물 성상과 화석탄소함량으로 평가된다.

  • This study is done in order to find the solutions that we are facing on social and ecological crisis around the world. The basic survey was done on college students who will mostly become city residents in the future. Students collect information about the amount of the waste and the way of disposition for a week. The analysis how they produce and dispose waste will show what influence their behavioral decisions. The findings are first, students are very conscious of the importance of environmental conservation. But they value little and they don't have proper knowledge. Second, sex was the decisive factor, women tend to behave eco-friendly. But the more they are conscious about environment, the less they behave eco-friendly. The more they spend allowances, the less they are conscious of environment. Third, they recycle waste at home during the weekend, but not during weekdays at school because there is no recycling bin or they are not economically responsible.

  • The solid waste incineration facilities which cause environmental pollution. And those are some kind of loathing facilities for residents who do not want it. This problem could be solved by location feasibility study. The purpose of location feasibility study was to determine one site out of three candidate sites. This study which was done by the law, environmental and economic factor was considered for optimum site selection. Comparative evaluation among the candidate sites was done by ordinal scale and thus the optimum site was selected.
