소각 또는 고온용융 등의 열처리 설비의 운전시 이로부터 예상되는 작업자 및 인근주민의 방사선 피폭을 보수적인 개념과 단순화시킨 피폭예측 식을 이용하여 산출해 보았다. 200kg/hr 용량의 소각로에 대해 발전소의 가연성 폐기물을 소각하는 경우 작업자의 피폭이 인근주민보다 훨씬 우려해야 하는 영향인자였으며 소각대상물 중의 핵종농도의 제한, 소각재 취급시 차폐의 증대 등이 요구된다. 따라서 작업자의 최대 피폭허용기준치를 기초로 폐기물내 핵종의 최대 허용 비방사능치를 계산해 보았고 각 핵종의 영향도를 제시해 보았다. 적용된 식은 각종처리 및 처분시설의 설계 및 운전전에 안전성 평가에 활용될 수 있으리라고 기대된다.

The level manufacturing technique for refuse derived fuel (RDF) is possible to produce them itself by a domestic process which is appropriate in Korea. However, very few facilities were used for industrial combustible waste. The objective of this research is to develop the technique for refuse plastic fuel (RPF) of industrial waste. RPFs were prepared by mixing of plastic, paper and wood based on amount of regional waste. The physical properties of the RPFs prepared were investigated. RPFs prepared at mixing ratio(plastic : paper : wood) of 87.55% : 8.15% : 4.3% show the highest lower heating values in wet-base (LHVW) and the LHVW decreases as the mixing ratio of paper and wood increases.

Combustible waste into energy policy is an effective method to respond to climate change and depletion of fossil fuels. Combustible waste into energy is the process of generating energy in the form of electricity and/or heat from the combustible waste such as vinyl, paper and plastic. This study tries to estimate the external benefit of enhancing the ratio of combustible waste into energy to primary energy from 1.89% to 5% using contingent valuation(CV) method. To this end, we report the results from a CV survey to elicit the willingness to pay (WTP) for combustible waste into energy. A CV survey of 500 households was conducted in the Seoul by using person-to-person interviews. Thus, the procedures of applying and the findings from the one-and-one-half bounded dichotomous choice spike model used to deal with the zero WTP responses are provided in the paper. The results show that the average WTP is estimated to be 2,724 won per household per month and statistically significant at the 5% level. Expanding the value to the Seoul gives us an aggregate value of 13.7 billion won per year.

The amount of radioactive waste is expected to be increased continuously because of the rapid growth of the domestic nuclear industry, full power operation of the HANARO reactor and the increased research activities of the nuclear fuel cycle. Accordingly the efforts are focused to achieve the handling of radioactive waste in safe and reduce the volume of radioactive waste. The PIEF is carrying out the PIE (post irradiation examination) of spent fuel rods related to the identification of cause defect and evaluation of integration safety. This study describes the technologies and experiences of compaction, shredding and cutting of the solid radioactive waste used in the PIE. The quantity of the high level waste was reduced by 1/12 using the 100-ton compressor installed in hot-cell. Also middle and low level waste was reduced by 1/8 using the 60-ton compressor installed in intervention area. Plastic drums were shredded by crusher to be compacted in the ratio of 1/5, used filters in the ratio of 1/6 and the number of drum is also reduced by cutting procedure for the non-volatile materials such as metal.

In order to simultaneously vitrify the ion exchange resin(IER) and combustible dry active waste(DAW) generated from Korean nuclear power plants, a vitrification pilot test was conducted using an induction cold crucible melter(CCM) . The energy necessary for startup of the glass using a Ti-ring was evaluated as about 290 kWh. The power supplied from a high frequency generator to melt the glass properly was ranged from 160 to 190 kW without any interruption. When the mixture of the IER and DAW was fed into the CCM, the concentration of CO was lowered up to 1/40 compared to feeding the IER solely. It may be caused by the DAW which can produce about 1.8 times higher heat compared to the IER. When the swelling phenomenon occurred in the glass melt, the concentration of $NO_2$, oxidizing gas, was higher than NO, reducing gas. Total feed amounts of the IER and DAW were 368 and 751 kg, respectively. And then, about 74 of volume reduction factor was achieved.
