Abstract

This study presents a method to calculate carbon dioxide emissions of diesel vehicles operated in an underground mine using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). An underground limestone mine in Korea was selected as the study area. A GIS database was constructed to represent the haulage roads as a 3D vector network. The speed of dump trucks at each haulage road was investigated to determine the carbon dioxide emission factor. The amount of carbon dioxide emissions related to the truck's haulage work could be calculated by considering the carbon dioxide emission factor at each haulage road and the haulage distance determined by GIS-based optimal route analysis. Because diesel vehicles are widely utilized in the mining industry, the method proposed in this study can be used and further improved to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide emissions in mining sites.

본 연구에서는 지리정보시스템(GIS)을 이용하여 지하광산 현장에서 운영되는 디젤 차량의 탄소배출량을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 국내 지하 석회석 광산 한 곳을 연구지역으로 선정하였고, 연구 지역의 운반도로를 3차원 벡터 네트워크 형식으로 표현하여 GIS 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 탄소배출계수의 계산을 위해 운반도로의 각 구간별로 대형 디젤 차량인 덤프트럭의 이동속도를 측정하였다. 운반도로 각 구간별로 계산된 탄소배출계수와 GIS 기반의 최적 경로분석을 통해 결정된 트럭의 운반거리를 고려하여 운반작업과 관련한 디젤 차량의 탄소배출량을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있었다. 광업 분야에서 디젤 차량이 광범위하게 활용되고 있으므로, 본 연구에서 제시한 방법은 광산 현장의 탄소배출량 산정을 위해 사용될 수 있으며 추가적인 연구를 통해 보다 개선될 수 있을 것이다.
