The Composition and Physico-chemcal Characteristics of school waste in B area, Kyunggi-do

경기도 B 지역 학교폐기물의 성상 및 물리∙화학적 특성

In this study, the composition and physico-chemical characteristics of school waste which is located in B area, kyunggi-do was investigated. It is necessary to measure the characteristics of school waste to build the data-base for resource and recycling of waste. This school waste was composed of 12.25% of food wastes, 56.26% of papers, 9.26% of plastics&vinyls, 1.52% of textiles, 3.70% of wood, 0.11% of rubbers&leathers and others, respectively. Most of school wastes are mainly composed of paper and plastic waste and composition of combustible waste was about as 90%. From 3-components analysis, contents of moisture, combustible component, and ash was 5.72%, 88.29% and 5.98%, respectively. Moisture content was higher in Agricultural Dwelling school area compare to the urban dwelling school area. The chemical element of the school waste has the high order of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen on the dry basis of wastes and the low heating value of the MSW which is measured by calorimeter is shown as 3720.44kcal/kg.

본 연구에서는 경기도 B지역 학교 폐기물의 성상 및 물리 화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 이것은 폐기물 재활용 및 자원화시설 설계를 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있게 하고자 한다. 학교폐기물의 물리적 조성의 실험결과 음식 쓰레기 12.25%, 종이류 56.26%, 플라스틱과 비닐류 9.26%, 섬유 1.52%, 나무 3.70%, 고무 및 피혁류와 기타는 0.11%이다. 학교폐기물의 대부분은 종이류와 플라스틱류이고, 약 90%가 가연성분인 것으로 나타났다. 삼성분 분석 결과 수분 5.72%, 가연분 88.29%, 그리고 회분 5.98%로 나타났으며, 농촌지역 학교 폐기물 성분중 수분이 도시지역 학교보다 높게 나왔다. 건조된 폐기물의 원소 분석 결과 탄소, 산소, 수소가 높게 나왔으며 학교폐기물의 저위발열량은 3051.44kcal/kg로 조사되어졌다.
