South Korea is under pressure to reduce $CO_2$ emissions because of expanding request for reducing $CO_2$ emissions. In many industry sectors, $CO_2$ emissions were analyzed to reduce $CO_2$ emissions. But little effort in researching agricultural sector has been undertaken because it is recognized as environmentally friendly industry. The object of this research is to estimate $CO_2$ emissions of crops and analysis on correlation between $CO_2$ emissions and production, acreage of crops. In this study, environmental input-output analysis was used to estimate $CO_2$ emissions of agricultural sector and spearman correlation coefficient was used to analysis on correlation between $CO_2$ emissions and statics like production and acreage. As a result, rice, barley, pulses and horticultural specialities had correlation with acreage and correlation coefficients of these crops were 0.800~0.933. Regression equations about $CO_2$ emissions and acreage of rice, barley, pulses and horticultural specialities was made and $R^2$ of these equations were 0.615~0.929. Using equations, $CO_2$ emissions of rice, barley, pulses and horticultural specialities can be estimated with acreage.

In this study, the effects of the current pulsing conditions, on the spatter generation rate during the $CO_2$ gas metal arc welding (GMAW) were investigated. Normally using the inverter type power supply, of which the welding current waveform was regulated to reduce the spatter generation rate, but in this study pulsing was imposed on the welding current. Observation of the metal transfer phenomena during the pulsed current GMAS indicated that the droplet transfer from the electrode via the short circuit transfer and the repelling transfer mode could be minimized by selecting optimum combinations of pulsing parameters, which include base and peak current, base and pak duration. It was also demonstrated in this study that proper combinations of the pulsing parameters led to reduce generation of spatters during GMAW shielded by $CO_2$ gas.

The cofiring of renewable fuel in coal fired boilers is an attractive option to mitigate $CO_2$ emissions, since it is relatively low cost option for efficiently converting renewable fuel to electricity by adding biomass as partial substitute of coal. However, it would lead to reduce plant efficiency and flexibility in operation, and increase operation cost and capital cost associated with renewable fuels handling and firing equipment. The aim of this study is to investigate reduction of carbon dioxide at varying percentage of biomass in fuel blend to the boiler biomass, and estimate operation and capital cost. Wood pellet, PKS (palm kernel shell), EFB (empty fruit bunch) and sludge are considered as a renewable fuels for a cofiring with coal. Several approaches by the cofiring ratio are chosen from past plant demonstrations and commercial cofiring operation, and they are evaluated and discussed for CO2 reduction and cost estimation.

Monodispersed microparticles with a poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) core and a poly(ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate) (PE2CA) shell were prepared by Shirasu porous glass (SPG) membrane emulsification to reduce the initial burst release of doxorubicin (DOX). Solution mixtures with different weight ratios of PLGA polymer and E2CA monomer were permeated under pressure through an SPG membrane with $1.9\;{\mu}m$ pore size into a continuous water phase with sodium lauryl sulfate as a surfactant. Core-shell structured microparticles were formed by the mechanism of anionic interfacial polymerization of E2CA and precipitation of both polymers. The average diameter of the resulting microparticles with various PLGA:E2CA ratios ranged from 1.42 to $2.73\;{\mu}m$. The morphology and core-shell structure of the microparticles were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The DOX release profiles revealed that the microparticles with an equivalent PLGA:E2CA weight ratio of 1:1 exhibited the optimal condition to reduce the initial burst of DOX. The initial release rate of DOX was dependent on the PLGA:E2CA ratio, and was minimized at a 1:1 ratio.

지구온난화(Global Warming) 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 이산화탄소 배출량을 줄여야 한다. 우리나라는 1인당 이산화탄소 배출량이 세계 Top 수준이기 때문에 배출량을 줄이기 위한 노력을 더욱 적극적으로 할 필요가 있다. 이산화탄소 배출량을 줄이기 위한 노력은 다방면으로 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 $CO_2$ 를 줄이기 위해서는 그것의 배출특성을 알아야 한다. 건설장비의 이산화탄소 배출량을 측정하여 비교분석하는 것은 이러한 측면에서 중요하다. 현재 가장 많이 이용되고 있는 배출량 산정방법은 연료사용량 대비 배출계수를 이용하는 방법이다. 그러나 이 방법은 연료사용량에 비례하지 않는 요인을 반영하지 못하므로 신뢰성에 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 건설장비의 이산화탄소 배출량을 직접측정방식으로 산정하여 배출계수에 의한 방식과 비교분석하고 그 차이에 대한 원인을 분석하였다.

The studies for mechanical performance development have been examined to reduce energy consumption in building construction field. However, The energy consumption using in building for heating is impacted by not only system performance but also PMV particularly at temperature and clo. Most energy using in building part is mainly consumed for heating and cooling to keep comfort temperature. Heating energy consumption is bigger than cooling energy in Korea because of temperature difference in winter in comparison with summer at apartment building. This means that energy consumption can be changed by occupancy's comfort setting temperature in apartment building. This study evaluate actual comfort temperature range by clo and examined heating energy consumption by Esp-r and CO2 reduction possibility. The results show that keeping ASHRAE standards can reduce heating energy up to 23%; also, wearing underclothes with ASHRAE standard can reduce heating energy up to 47.8%. Option 4 showing Maximum CO2 emission reduction indicates that kerosene. LNG and electricity can reduce 1.5t, 1.7t, 2.46t respectively in comparison with option 2.

It is widely accepted that the prevention of global warming requires significant reductions in greenhouse gases, particularly CO₂ emissions. Although fossil fuel-based power plants account for the majority of CO₂ emissions, it is urgent to reduce CO₂ emissions in industries that emit large amounts of CO₂ such as steel, petrochemical, and oil refining. This paper examines the current status of CO₂ emission in the domestic oil refining industry and CO₂ emission sources in each unit process in the oil refining industry. Focusing on the previously developed CO₂ capture process, cases and applicability of greenhouse gas reduction in FCC and hydrogen manufacturing processes, which are major processes constituting the oil refining industry, are reviewed.

The purpose of this study is to develop an air-passing soundproofing panel with more improved structure to reduce the $CO_2$ emission and installation cost. To reduce the emission of $CO_2$ ; it is suggested to choose low $CO_2$ emission material relative to the aluminum and to reduce the materials by developing a specially designed air-passing soundproofing panel structure. First of all, we performed the flow analysis to predict the wind pressure according to the open angle of the air-passing soundproofing panel and the noise level analysis at the receiver point. To verify the simulation, a prototype of the soundproofing panel was made. The flow test in the wind tunnel and load test were performed. The economic evaluation for the installation of the air-passing soundproofing panel was performed and specifications of the installation was prepared. As the results of this research, it was verified that the wind load was reduced about 40% to that of the conventional one at 25m/s wind speed in the wind tunnel test. By applying the 4m span soundproofing wall with air-passing soundproofing panel and under the cost of 250 thousand $won/m^2$ instead of the conventional 2m span panel, the installation cost will always be lowered than the conventional one in the combination of (60:40~50:50) conventional to air-passing soundproofing panel from the economic evaluation. The 20% reduction of $CO_2$ was found by changing the 50% of aluminum soundproof panel to air-passing soundproofing panel.
