The paper is aimed at evaluation method for technology-focused professional ESCO. We set up some premise about the evaluation indicators, there are such as the financial soundness, energy savings performance excellence, customer satisfaction, source technology vendor's participation, and guaranteed savings contract. The evaluation indicators consist of the evaluation of expertise (40points), management state (15points), customer satisfaction (20points), technical skills (25points), and detailed indicators were determined. We can apply technology categories such as lighting, cogeneration, process improvement, waste heat recovery, cooling & heating equipments.

The engine oil is used for lubrication of various internal combustion engines. Recently, the vehicle and engine oil manufacture usually guarantee for oil change over 15000~20000 km mileage, but the most of driver usually change engine oil every 5000 km driving in korea. It can cause to raise environmental contamination by used engine oil and increase the cost of driving by frequently oil change. In this study, we investigate the various physical properties such as flash point, pour point, kinematic viscosity, cold cranking simulator characteristics, total acid number, four-ball test and concentration of metal component for fresh engine oil and used engine oil after real vehicle driving (5000 km, 10000 km). The result showed that the total acid number, wear scar diameter by four-ball test, Fe and Cu had increased than fresh engine oil, but 2 kind of used oil (5000 km and 10000km) had similar physical values and concentration of metal component.
