Many studies on methane ($CH_4$) and nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) emissions from livestock industries have revealed that livestock production directly contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through enteric fermentation and manure management, which causes negative impacts on animal environment sustainability. In the present study, three essential values for GHG emission were measured; i.e., i) maximum $CH_4$ producing capacity at mesophilic temperature ($37^{\circ}C$) from anaerobically stored manure in livestock category ($B_{0,KM}$, Korean livestock manure for $B_0$), ii) $EF_{3(s)}$ value representing an emission factor for direct $N_2O$ emissions from manure management system S in the country, kg $N_2O-N$ kg $N^{-1}$, at mesophilic ($37^{\circ}C$) and thermophilic ($55^{\circ}C$) temperatures, and iii) $N_{ex(T)}$ emissions showing annual N excretion for livestock category T, kg N $animal^{-1}$ $yr^{-1}$, from different livestock manure. Static incubation with and without aeration was performed to obtain the $N_2O$ and $CH_4$ emissions from each sample, respectively. Chemical compositions of pre- and post- incubated manure were analyzed. Contents of total solids (% TS) and volatile solid (% VS), and the ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C/N) decrease significantly in all the samples by C-containing biogas generation, whereas moisture content (%) and pH increased after incubation. A big difference of total nitrogen content was not observed in pre- and post-incubation during $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ emissions. $CH_4$ emissions (g $CH_4$ kg VS-1) from all the three manures (sows, layers and Korean cattle) were different and high C/N ratio resulted in high $CH_4$ emission. Similarly, $N_2O$ emission was found to be affected by % VS, pH, and temperature. The $B_{0,KM}$ values for sows, layers, and Korean cattle obtained at $37^{\circ}C$ are 0.0579, 0.0006, and 0.0828 $m^3$ $CH_4$ kg $VS^{-1}$, respectively, which are much less than the default values in IPCC guideline (GL) except the value from Korean cattle. For sows and Korean cattle, $N_{ex(T)}$ values of 7.67 and 28.19 kg N $yr^{-1}$, respectively, are 2.5 fold less than those values in IPCC GL as well. However, $N_{ex(T)}$ value of layers 0.63 kg N $yr^{-1}$ is very similar to the default value of 0.6 kg N $yr^{-1}$ in IPCC GLs for National greenhouse gas inventories for countries such as South Korea/Asia. The $EF_{3(s)}$ value obtained at $37^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ were found to be far less than the default value.

하수처리장은 공공부문 온실가스 목표 관리제 대상 시설로 탄소 배출량 감축이 시급하다. 하지만 최근 하수도 통계에 의하면 하수처리량에 대한 CO₂ 배출량은 2020년 대비 3.03 % 감소하였으며 이는 국가 온실가스 감축목표(NDC)를 충족하기에는 상당히 부족한 수치이다. 생물반응조에서 발생하는 직접 배출 온실가스와 하수처리과정에서 이용되는 에너지로 인한 간접배출 온실가스 두 가지를 모두 고려한 총 CFP (Carbon Footprint)를 최소화하는 생물반응조 운전 조건을 찾기 위해 EQPS라는 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 이용하여 연구를 수행하였다. 4-stage BNR 공법 하수처리장 생물반응조 내부반송율을 유입 수량의 100 %로 설정했을 때 총 CFP가 설계 운전 조건 대비 약 10.97 % 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한 대상 처리장의 N₂O EF(Emission Factor)를 계산한 결과 0.138~0.199 %로 IPCC에서 제시한 기본값 1.6 %보다 낮은 값임을 파악하였다. 본 연구는 생물반응조 운전 조건 최적화를 통해 하수처리시설의 총 CFP를 최소화하는 방안을 제시하며, N₂O 배출 감소를 위한 추가 연구의 필요성을 강조하고 있다.

In this study, the researchers have developed the greenhouse gas emission coefficients targeted at sewage sludge incineration plants that treat sewage sludge by incineration. Among the gases emitted from the sewage sludge incineration plants, the greenhouse gases showed concentrations of 6.84% for $CO_2$, 4.51 ppm for $CH_4$, and 86.34 ppm for $N_2O$; calculated into greenhouse gas emission coefficients, these gave $276.06kg\;CO_2/ton$, $0.0066kg\;CH_4/ton$, and $0.35kg\;N_2O/ton$. As the result of calculating the greenhouse gas emission quantity in sewage sludge incineration plants using the greenhouse gas emission coefficients, the gross greenhouse gas emission was $84.63ton\;CO_2\;eq./day$, and the net emission was $23.90ton\;CO_2\;eq./day$; this was $37.52ton\;CO_2\;eq./day$ less than the net greenhouse gas emission that was calculated using the standard values of IPCC, which was $61.42ton\;CO_2\;eq./day$. This difference is probably because unlike the standard values of IPCC, the greenhouse gas emission coefficients of this study reflected the special properties of subject facilities. Thus, it is thought that emission coefficient research on the facilities that deviated from the standard values of IPCC should continue to achieve the development of national greenhouse gas coefficient that reflects the special properties of Korea.

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.

Carbon footprint of apple was a sum of $CO_2$ emission in the step of manufacturing waste of agri-materials, and greenhouse gas emission during apple cultivation. Input amount of agri-materials was calculated on 2007 Income reference of Apple by Rural Development Administration. Emission factor of each agri- materials was based on domestic data and Ecoinvent data. $N_2O$ emission factor was based on 1996 IPCC guideline. Carbon dioxide was emitted 0.64 kg $CO_2$ to produce 1 kg apple fruit, and carbon dioxide was emitted 43.6% in the step of the manufacturing byproduct fertilizer, 1.3% in the step of the manufacturing single fertilizer, 4.7% in the step of the manufacturing composite fertilizer, 6.3% in the step of the manufacturing agri-chemicals, 14.6% in the step of the manufacturing fuel, 11.5% in the step of the fuel combustion, 17.7% of $N_2O$ emission by nitrogen application and 0.18% of disposal of agri-materials. It is needed for farmers to use fertilization recommendation based on soil testing (soil. rda.go.kr) because scientific fertilization is a major tools to reduce carbon dioxide of apple production. The fertilization recommendation could be also basic data in Measurable-ReporTablele-Verifiable (MRV) system for carbon footprint.

ZnO thin-films are grown on a p-Si(111) substrate by RF sputtering. The effects of growth temperature and $O_2$ mixture ratio on the ZnO films are investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements. All the grown ZnO thin films show a strong preferred orientation along the c-axis, with an intense ultraviolet emission centered at 377 nm. However, when $O_2$ is mixed with the sputtering gas, the half width at half maximum (FWHM) of the XRD peak increases and the deep-level defect-related emission PL band becomes pronounced. In addition, an n-ZnO/p-Si heterojunction diode is fabricated by photolithographic processes and characterized using its current-voltage (I-V) characteristic curve and photoresponsivity. The fabricated n-ZnO/p-Si heterojunction diode exhibits typical rectifying I-V characteristics, with turn-on voltage of about 1.1 V and ideality factor of 1.7. The ratio of current density at ${\pm}3V$ of the reverse and forward bias voltage is about $5.8{\times}10^3$, which demonstrates the switching performance of the fabricated diode. The photoresponse of the diode under illumination of chopped with 40 Hz white light source shows fast response time and recovery time of 0.5 msec and 0.4 msec, respectively.

최근 국내 배출원 특성을 고려하여 생물성 연소에 대한 배출목록(emission inventory)을 추가하려는 연구가 이루어지고 있으나, 국내 현황을 반영한 실증 연구는 현재까지 거의 이루어진 바가 없는 실정이다. 따라서 앞으로 배출목록에 대한 기후 대기 통합관리시스템이 진행될 경우, 효과적인 배출원 관리를 위해 생물성 연소의 온실가스 배출 특성에 대한 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 숯가마에서 발생하는 온실가스 배출 특성을 파악하기 위하여 숯가마 모형장치를 이용하여 현장실험을 실시했다. 또한, 참나무의 점화, 탄화, 출탄하는 시기와 내부 온도 변화를 고려하여 굴뚝에서 배출되는 온실가스($CO_2$, $CH_4$, $N_2O$)를 직접 포집하여 분석하였다. 온실가스 배출계수 산정 결과, $CO_2$ 배출계수는 668 g/kg, $CH_4$ 배출계수는 20 g/kg이며, $N_2O$ 배출계수는 0.01 g/kg으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 개발한 온실가스 배출계수를 사용하여 국가 배출량을 산정한 결과, $CO_2$ 배출량은 46,040 ton/yr, $CH_4$ 배출량은 1,378 ton/yr, $N_2O$ 배출량은 0.69 ton/yr으로 나타났다. GWP를 이용하여 총 배출량을 산정한 결과, 연간 $75,201ton\;CO_2eq.$으로 나타났으며, 참나무는 바이오 매스에 포함되기 때문에 연소하는 과정에서 발생하는 $CO_2$는 총 배출량에서 제외되므로 숯가마에서 발생하는 국내 순배출량은 연간 $29,161ton\;CO_2eq.$으로 추정되었다.

There are a lot of trace gas of gaseous pollutants produced from farm animals. CO2 and CH4 are gases produced directly by the animal. NH3, N2O are produced from animal waste. Most of the effects of these gaseous pollutants on the farm animals have not been investigated in detail. CO2 emission from animal is very little. CH4 release from ruminant is also considered to be a significant factor in potential global warming. Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions could be avoided by using organic or mineral fertilizer only as much as is needed by plant growing. This paper gives an overview about problems and solving strategies for possibilities for reduction of gaseous pollutants. The way to reduce the gaseous pollution risks from livestock systems are discussed.

본 연구는 당근 재배 화산회 토양에서 질소시비 수준 및강우, 온도 환경 변화에 따른 $N_2O$ 발생 양상 특성 구명하기 위하여 제주특별자치도농업기술원 시험포장에서 2년간(2010~2011년) 수행되었다. 당근 재배기간 동안 $N_2O$ 배출량은 질소시비량이 많을수록 많았다. 대체적으로 $N_2O$ 배출량은 강우량 많은 시기인 재배 초기와 중기에 많았으나, 강우가 적고 한발 시기인 재배 말기에는 매우 적거나 거의 없는 경향을보였다. $N_2O$ 배출 양상은 강우 패턴 및 토양수분함량 변화와 대체로 유사한 경향을 보였다. $N_2O$ 배출량과 상관관계($r$)를 분석한 결과, '10년도에는 토양수분, 토양온도는 각각 $0.5718^{**}$, $0.4908^{**}$로 유의성이 인정되었으나, 토양 EC는 0.2704로 유의성은 인정되지 않았다. '11년도에는 토양수분은 $0.3394^*$로 유의성이 인정되었으나, 토양온도와 토양 EC는 각각 0.2138, 0.2462로 유의성은 인정되지 않았다. $NO_3$-N 및 토양 질소($NO_3-N+NH_4-N$)와는 각각 0.0575, 0.0787로 유의성이 인정되지 않았다. 당근 재배기간 동안 질소시비량에 의하여 배출된 2개년 평균 배출계수는 0.0025 $N_2O$-N kg / N kg으로 추정되었으며, IPCC (0.0100 $N_2O$-N kg / N kg) 배출계수 보다 약 4배 낮았다.

현재 지구상에서 농업에 기인하여 배출되는 $N_2$O의 80% 정도가 지구의 온난화 뿐만 아니라 오존층 파괴에까지 영향을 미친다. 토양에서 수분함량 등과 관련한 유기태 탄소는 지하수면의 계절적 변화에 따라 탈질화를 결정하는 주요 요인이 되기도 하며 심층토의 탈질화 활동은 토양내 유기물을 분해하여 유기태 질소를 일시적으로 토양에 축적시키기도 한다. 그리고 토양의 관리방법, 폐기물의 토양처리, 질소질 비료의 시용 등이 $N_2$O 증가에 결정적 요인이 되기도 한다. 그러나 이러한 효과의 정도는 거의 알려져 있지 않을 뿐만 아니라 질산화나 탈질화와 같은 상반되는 과정과 제한 요소와 관련하여 범용적으로 적용할 수 있는 $N_2$O 방출을 예측하는 측정 계수와 같은 연구는 매우 미미한 상태이다. 그러므로 농업토양에서 비료와 유기물 시용 둥에 의해 발생하는 토양의 $N_2$O배출을 효율적으로 관리하기 위하여 심층토에서의 동적 역학적 $N_2$O 배출 측정과 관리 방법을 개발하여야 한다.
