Currently, the way of providing housing in Korea has been regarded as public rental housing through large-scale development by the government. However, there is an increasing need for qualitative growth not only in quantitative growth but also in policies, systems, and sustainable design. The purpose of this study is to explore the applicable methods for domestic social housing through the policy and design guideline study of UK social housing which has achieved qualitative growth through diversification of development subject. First, the concept of social housing in the UK and sustainable housing design elements will be examined. Second, the characteristics and policy direction, project background, management and sustainability of five social housing projects over the last 10 years in the UK will be analyzed. In conclusion, in order to achieve the sustainable design of social housing, the construction of the social housing in terms of policy and environment must include safe and eco-friendly design adaptability that can secure local identity and respond flexibly to social change. In addition, the social housing in the UK, which forms a sustainable complex through cooperation between the public and the private sector based on its place and history, can be a guideline for establishing policies and design guidelines in terms of urban regeneration.

Food waste is produced from food factories, food services, and home kitchens. The generated mass reached 5.4 million tons/year in 2020. The basic management technology for such waste has been biological degradation under an anaerobic environment. However, the whole process is intrinsically slow and considerably affected by the inner physicochemical properties of the waste and other surrounding conditions, which makes optimization of the process difficult. The most promising options to counter this massive generation of waste are eco-friendly treatments or recycling. As a preliminary step for these options, attempts were made to evaluate the feasibility and usability of three simulative models based on reaction kinetics. Model (A) predicted relative changes over reaction time for reactant, intermediate, and product. Overall, an increased reaction rate produced less intermediate and more product, thereby leading to a shorter total reaction time. Particle diminishing model (B) predicted reduction of the total waste mass. The smaller particles diminished faster along with the dominant effect of microbial reaction. In Model (C), long-chain cellulose was predicted to transform into reducing sugar. At a standard condition, 48% of cellulose molecules having 10⁵ repeating units turned into reducing sugar after 100 h. Also it was found that the optimal enzyme concentration where the highest amount of remnant sugar was harvested was 1 mg L^-1.

Urbanization and industrialization associated with rapid economic development have resulted in air pollution in urban areas, which adversely affects human health and the environment around the world. Growing awareness of the health effects of airborne particulate matter (PM) has led to the emergence of urban greening as a promising eco-friendly, nature-based solution to reduce the concentration of PM (especially PM_2.5) to which individuals are exposed, thereby promoting public health. In this review, we highlight fundamental insights about PM and recent research on the ability of urban greening to capture PM. Reports from the scientific literature on PM published from 1992 to 2021 were retrieved from Google Scholar. Here, we explore some of the main complex relationships between leaf traits and the ability to retain PM for research or management to optimize greenspaces.

Bio-CaCO₃ is a blowout environment-friendly materials for soil improvement and sealing of rock fissures. To evaluate the chemical characteristics, shape, size and productivity of soybean urease induced CaCO₃ precipitates (SUICP), experimental studies were conducted via EDS, XRD, FT-IR, TGA, BET, and SEM. Also, the conversion rate of SUICP reaction at different time were determined and analyzed. The Bio-CaCO₃ product obtained by SUICP is comprehensively judged as calcite based on the results of EDS, XRD and FT-IR. The SUICP calcite precipitates are detected as spherical or ellipsoidal particles 3-6 ㎛ in diameter with nanoscale pores on their surface, and this morphology is novel. The median secondary particle size d₅₀ is 39-88 ㎛, indicating the agglomeration of the primary calcite particles. The Bio-calcite decomposes at 650-780℃, representing a medium thermal stability. The conversion rate of SUICP reaction can reach 80% in 24h, which is much more efficient than microbially induced CaCO₃ precipitation. These results reveal the knowledges of SUICP, and further direct its engineering applications. Moreover, we show an economic channel to obtain porous spherical calcite.

Disposal of waste glass derived from bottle or packaging glass, flat glass, domestic glass is one of the major environmental defies. Moreover, the remnants of bricks resulting from the remnants of buildings are also considered an important factor in polluting the environment due to the difficulty of filling or getting rid it. The aim of this study is to valorize these wastes through chemical activation to be an environmentally friendly material. The Microstructure, compressive strength, setting time, drying shrinkage, water absorption of different pastes produced by clear glass (CG), green glass (GG) and brick waste (BP) activated were tested and recorded after curing for 3, 7, 28 and 365 days. Five samples of pastes were mixed in proportions represented by: 100% GP (GP), 100% GGP (GGP), 100% BP (BP), 90% GP + 10% BP (GPB) and 90% GGP + 10% BP (GGPB). Various parameters considered in this study include sodium hydroxide concentrations (10 mol/l); 0.4 as alkaline liquid to binder ratio; 2.5 as sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide ratio and cured at 60℃ for 24 hours. Experimental results revealed that the addition of 10% of BP resulted in an increased strength performance of geopolymer paste especially with GGPB compared to GGP in 365 days. In addition, the 10% amount of BP increases the absorption and shrinkage rate of geopolymer pastes (GPB and GGPB) by reducing the setting time. SEM results revealed that the addition of BP and GP resulted in a dense structure.

현재 급변하는 환경 속에서 각 국가는 일자리 창출 및 기술 경쟁력 강화를 위한 노력을 지속하고 있다. 특히 벤처기업 및 창업기업에 대한 지원과 활성화 정책은 국가 경쟁력을 높이는 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 경쟁 심화로 비즈니스 수명이 짧아지고 고객들의 요구가 다양화되는 환경의 불확실성이 확대되는 가운데 기업은 적절한 대처를 해야 한다. 우선 기업은 스스로 내부 역량을 강화하는 노력을 하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 벤처기업은 내부 자원 및 역량 등이 부족하여 외부 환경으로부터의 지원이 기업의 생존으로 연결될 만큼 중요하다고 볼 수 있다(Timmons, 1994). 기업의 경쟁력 강화를 위해 국가 차원에서 재정지원 및 인증제도를 운용하고 있다. 그러나 재정지원은 상황에 따라 기업의 자생력을 낮출 수 있으므로 연구개발 지원 및 창업교육과 같은 비 재정적 지원이 벤처기업 성장에 장기적으로 도움이 된다고 보았다(Aghion et al., 2012; 전미미·고강혁, 2021). 비 재정적 지원은 사업화, 시설, 공간, 보육, 인력, 인증제도 등으로 구분되는데 본 연구에서는 인증제도인 벤처기업 확인제도의 혜택을 중심으로 확인하였다. 이를 위해 2021년도 벤처기업정밀실태조사 데이터 및 벤처기업의 매출액 데이터를 활용하였으며, SPSS 26.0 패키지와 SPSS PROCESS MACRO를 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준은 벤처확인제도 혜택이나 벤처기업 역량 수준을 높이는 데는 긍정적인 영향을 주지만, 실질적인 경영성과로 이어지기는 어려운 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준과 경영성과 간 관계를 벤처기업 역량 수준이 매개하는 것으로 확인되었다. 결과적으로 단순히 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준이 긍정적이거나 벤처기업에 친화적일지라도 외부 환경으로부터의 지원을 잘 소화할 수 있는 내부 역량이 있는 기업이 경영성과를 높인다고 할 수 있다.
