Greenhouse gases (GHGs) from agricultural sector were categorized in a guideline book from Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as methane from rice paddy fields and nitrous oxide from agricultural soils. In general, GHG emissions were calculated by multiplying the activity data by emission factor. Tier 1 methodology uses IPCC default factors and Tier 2 uses country specific emission factors (CS). The CS and Scaling factors (SF) had been developed by NAAS (National Academy of Agricultural Science) projects from 2009 to 2012 to estimate how the advanced emissions. The purpose of this study was to compare GHG emissions calculated from IPCC default factors and NAAS CS and SF of agricultural sector in Korea. Methane emissions using CS and SF in rice paddy field was about 79% higher than those using IPCC default factors. In the agricultural soils, nitrous oxide emissions using CS from the 5 crops were about 40% lower than those using IPCC default. Except those 5 crops, approximately up to 52% lower emissions were calculated using CS compared to those using IPCC default factors. The total GHG emissions using CS and SF were about 33% higher than those using Tier 1 method by IPCC default factors.

Recently, yearly production of SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel) as an alternative fuel has been rapidly increasing because of the limited waste disposal, rise in oil prices and reduction of greenhouse gas emission. However, SRF using facilities are excluded from the National Air Pollutant Emission Estimation because SRF using facilities are not yet included among the SCC (Source Classification Code). The purpose of this research was to estimate the emission and emission factor of SRF using facilities' PM and $NO_x$, in order to investigate whether or not they are included in the National Air Pollutant Emission Estimation. The emission factors of SRF using facilities' PM and $NO_x$ are calculated as 0.216 kg/ton, and 3.970 kg/ton, and the emission was estimated based on the yearly total SRF usage of 2011. The results above was 18.7% for PM and 12.8% for $NO_x$ emissions from combustion facility (SCC2) in manufacturing industry combustion (SCC1) of CAPSS. If CAPSS estimate the emission by adding SCC on unlisted SRF in case of Boiler (SCC3) fuel, both PM and $NO_x$'s emissions would increase by 15.8% and 11.3% compare to the emissions for the existing combustion facility. As a result, emissions caused by SRF should be considered when calculating the National Air Pollutant Emission Estimation. In addition, further researches to develop emission factor and improve subdivided SCC should be done in the future, for the accurate and reliable estimation of National Emission.

폐기물 에너지화가 온실가스 감축 수단으로 등장함에 따라 에너지를 많이 소비하는 국내 사업장 중 화석연료와 함께 RDF(Refuse Derived Fuel), RPF(Refuse Plastic Fuel), WCF(Wood Chip Fuel)와 같은 대체연료를 사용하는 곳이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 사업장에서 실제 사용하고 있는 고형대체연료 WCF의 연료 분석을 실시하여 $CO_2$배출계수를 개발하였다. 연료 분석 결과, 수분은 23%, 인수식 순발열량은 2,845 kcal/kg, 인수식 탄소함량은 34%였다. 이를 통해 산정한 $CO_2$ 배출계수는 약 $105ton\;CO_2/TJ$로 나타났으며, 이는 2006 IPCC 가이드라인에서 제시하고 있는 기본 배출계수 $112ton\;CO_2/TJ$보다 약 5.9% 낮게 산정되었다. A 사업장의 온실가스 총배출량은 $178,767ton\;CO_2 eq./yr$이고, 순배출량은 $40,359ton\;CO_2 eq./yr$으로 나타났다. 따라서 바이오매스 기반 대체연료 WCF의 사용으로 인한 $CO_2$ 저감 효과는 연간 $138,408CO_2ton$으로 볼 수 있으며, 이는 연간 총배출량의 약 77%에 해당된다.

하수처리장에서 생물학적 질소 제거를 위한 질산화, 탈질 과정 중 6대 온실가스 중 하나인 아산화질소가 발생한다. 이번 연구에서는 온실가스 발생량을 정량할 수 있는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 프로그램인 EQPS를 이용해 합류식 하수를 처리하는 MLE 공법 하수처리장의 내부반송유량, 수온 그리고 유입수의 일차침전지 by-pass %에 따라 아산화질소가 가장 적게 발생하는 운전 조건을 찾았다. 내부반송 유량은 유입 유량의 200 %이고, 생물반응조 수온이 20 ℃이고 일차침전지에서 생물반응조로 by-pass 되는 유입수가 15 %일 때 아산화질소 배출 계수가 가장 적은 조건임을 확인했다. 또한 깊은 수심에서 공기를 주입하는 심층폭기는 상대적으로 적은 공기공급을 필요로 하기 때문에 일반적인 폭기조에 비해 적은량의 아산화질소가 발생함을 확인하였다.

교통부문에서 온실가스 배출량은 주로 연료사용량에 의해 산정되었다(Tier 1 방식). 그러나 이 방법은 연료사용량을 측정할 수 없는 도로 구간에서 발생하는 배출량 산정에 사용되기 어렵다. 도로구간의 대기오염물질 배출량 또한 연료사용량에 의해 정확히 측정되어질 수 없는데 이는 대기오염물질 배출량이 속도, 차종, 차령, 유종 등의 함수이기 때문이다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구의 목적은 ITS 정보를 이용하여 지역 간 도로에서 발생되는 이산화탄소와 질소산화물의 배출량을 Tier 3 수준으로 산정하는 방법론을 정립하는 것이다. 이 방법론은 집계단위가 작은 ITS 검지기 정보를 이용하기 때문에 배출계수의 오목한 형태에서 기인하는 과소추정의 오류를 피할 수 있는 장점을 갖는다. 제시된 방법론을 4개 사례 도로구간에 적용한 결과는 중차량의 속도관리가 이산화탄소 또는 질소산화물 배출량 관리에 매우 중요함을 시사하였다.

In 1995 Kimchi refrigerator was developed at first, and has used HFC-134a as refrigerant. Kimchi refrigerator has been made 1,044,694 on the basis of 2010, disposed about 160,000 per year. Although mobile air conditioning, commercial refrigerator, general refrigerator is regarded as a major source of HFC-134a, little information is available for its emission characteristics of HFC-134a. This paper addresses the fugitive emission factors of Kimchi refrigerator at use-phase and disposal-phase. The residual quantities of Korean-made fifty three waste Kimchi refrigerators were weighed using a commercial recover of refrigerants to determine the emission factors at the disposal-phase. On the other hand, the emission factors at use-phase were estimated from the residual quantities and operating times. The average residual rate of forty three scarp Kimchi refrigerators is determined to be $74.6{\pm}5.2%$. The emission factor at the use-phase is estimated to be $3.5{\pm}0.8%/yr$ as a result of using average age of 11.7 years and the average residual rate determined here. The emission factor at the disposal-phase is determined to be 31.3% after adopting 58% of the recycling rate of refrigerant reported by Recycling Center. We estimate 3.1 g/yr for the average emission quantity of HFC-134a per operating refrigerator, while 22.5 g for that per waste Kimchi refrigerator. Since the chemical compositions of refrigerant of waste Kimchi refrigerator were the same as those of new refrigerant, it is expected that the HFC-134a recovered from waste Kimchi refrigerator can be reused for refrigerant.

The development of domestic plant specific emission factors is very important to estimate reliable national emissions management. This study, for the reason, was carried out to obtain advances emission factor for Carbon Dioxide ($CO_2$) by source-specific emission tests from the iron and steel industry sector which is well known as one of the major sources of greenhouse gases ($CO_2$). Emission factors estimated in this study were compared with those of IPCC for evaluation and they were found to be of similar level in the case of $CO_2$. There was no good information available on $CO_2$ plant specific emission factors from the iron and steel industry in Korea so far. The major emission sources of $CO_2$ examined from the iron and steel manufacturing precesses were a hot blast stove, coke oven, sintering furnace, electric arc furnace, heating furnace, and so on. In this study, the concentration of $CO_2$ from the hot blast stove process was the highest among all processes. The $CO_2$ emission factors for a ton of Steel and Iron products (using B-C oil) were estimated to be 0.315 $CO_2$ tonne (by Tier 3 method) and 4.89 $CO_2$ tonne. In addition, emission factor of $CO_2$ for heating furnace process was the highest among all process. Emission factors estimated in this study were compared with those of IPCC for evaluation and they were found to be of similar level in the case of $CO_2$.

To estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, the inventory of rice cultivation at the farming without agricultural chemicals was established from farmers in Gunsan, Jeonbuk province in 2011~2012. The objectives of this study were to calculate carbon footprint and analyse the major factor of GHGs. To do this, we carried out a sensitivity analysis using the analyzed main factors of GHGs and estimated the mitigation potential of GHGs. Also we suggested agricultural methods to reduce GHGs that can be appled by farmers at this region. At the farming system without agricultural chemicals, carbon footprint of rice production unit of 1 kg was 2.15 kg $CO_2.-eq.kg^{-1}$. Although the amount of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) emission was the largest among GHGs, methane ($CH_4$) emission had the highest contribution to carbon footprint on rice production system when it was converted to carbon dioxide equivalent ($CO_2-eq.$) multiplied by the global warming potential (GWP). Main source of $CO_2$ emission in the rice farming system without agricultural chemicals was combustion of fossil fuels used by agricultural machinery. Most of the $CH_4$ was emitted during rice cultivation practice and its major emission factor was flooded paddy field in anaerobic condition. Also, most of the $N_2O$ was emitted from rice cultivation process. Major sources of the $N_2O$ emission was application of fertilizer such as compound fertilizer. As a result of sensitivity analysis in energy consumption, diesel had the highest sensitivity among the energy inputs. With the reduction of diesel consumption by 10%, it was estimated that $CO_2$ potential reduction was about 2.0%. With reducing application rate of compound fertilizer by 10%, the potential reduction was calculated that $CO_2$ and $N_2O$ could be reduced by 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. At the condition of 10% reduction of silicate and compost, $CO_2$ and $CH_4$ could be reduced by 1.5% and 1.6%, respectively. With 8 days more drainage than the ordinary practice, $CH_4$ emission could be reduced by about 4.5%. Drainage and diesel consumption were the main sources having the largest effect on the GHG reduction at the farming system without agricultural chemicals. Based on the above results, we suggest that no-tillage and midsummer drainage could be a method to decrease GHG emissions from rice production system.
