This study was to develop the triboelectrostatic separation technique to recycle the coal from about 20% of mill reject products remained by grinding process in the coal thermoelectric power plant. In this study, we get a test results that can product the cleaned coal of 15% ash content and 66.23% recovery from mill reject of 47% ash content. And then, from the result of the releases analysis, we proved the excellence of treatment method, after showing the treament processing which is able to get 80% of recovery of coal from 20% of ash content demanded in the power plant.

In this study, waste car tau lamps that usually gets incinerated or buried has been recovered during the dispose process in order to increase the recycling rate of waste cars and the material separation research was performed by applying triboelectrostatic separation method. After a series of charging characteristic test, PMMA materials was confirmed of being an effective charging material for waste car tail lamp material separation, a cyclone charger using PMMA material for continuous process was developed. In optimum test conditions using triboelectrostatic separator developed in this study, high quality PMMA material with recovery rate of 99.0% and 90.2% was achieved from the waste car tail lamp. Therefore, a material separation technology that can recycle tail lamps of waste cars has been established.

In this study, we carried out the research on triboelectrostatic separation for materials separation of PET & Nylon recovered to waste plastic beer bottle. From the research on charging characteristic for choice of charging materials, it was found that PMMA was optimum charging material to make high charging amount with opposite polarity for PET & Nylon in waste plastic beer bottle. Therefore, we manufactured a charger of pipe line and cyclone type using PMMA material for separation of PET and Nylon. At optimum test conditions that used PMMA pipe line and cyclone charger developed in this study, we developed a triboelectrostatic separation technique that can separate PET plastic up to grade of 99.6% and recovery of 88.2%. We established new separation technology that can recycle the PET and Nylon recovered from waste plastic beer bottle.

In this study, we carried out the research on triboelectrostatic separation for heavy group plastics (PET, PVC) recovered from wet gravity separation. From the research on charging characteristic for the choice of charging materials, it was found that PP was optimum charging material to make high charging amount with opposite polarity for PET and PVC of heavy group. Therefore, we manufactured a charger of cyclone type using PP material for separation of PET and PVC. At optimum test conditions that used PP cyclone charger developed in this study, we developed a triboelectrostatic separation technique that can separate PET plastic up to grade of 98.5% and recovery of 86.2%. We established new separation technology that could recycle the PET and PVC heavy group plastics recovered from wet gravity separation.

A research on material separation of EVA and PET mixture plastic waste using a triboelectrostatic separator has been carried out. It was found that PP was the best charging material to give the highest charge on the surface of EVA and PET mixture plastics with an opposite polarity. Therefore, a charger of pipe line type using PP material was manufactured for separation of EVA and PET mixture plastic waste. At optimum test conditions that used PP cyclone charger developed in this study, we could separate out PET with a glade of 98.7% and a recovery of 89.7%.

In 2006, the coal usage that is used as energy source of power plant will meet 16,000 MW which is 30% of the whole energy usage. A Coal deposits among the fossil fuels is very plentiful in natural resources and has high economical efficiency but application technique is very inconvenient. Also when burned for utilization, it generate various toxic and untoxic air pollution materials; fly ash, bottom ash, sulfurous acid gas etc. In this study, we could establish a preparation of clean coal by triboelectrostatic separation. In this study, we made a bench-scale's triboelectrostatic separation equipment using electrostatic technology, and got an optimum conditions of various factors for increasing recovery rate and purification in separation. A test result, we got a clean coal that recovery rate is 68.10%, rejection rate of ash and sulfur content is 31.23% and 28.33%.

The development of material separation technique for waste plastic recycling are the necessary situation restricted by law the reclamation and incineration of waste plastic after 2004, with enforcement of EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) system. As the this study is the research on the development of electrostatic separation techniques for recycling of life circles waste plastic by development of charging material and charger, the separation efficiency can be improved. Therefore, we developed the charger and electrostatic separator to increase charging efficiency and material separation per object plastics, rising these equipments, we removed PVC up to $99\%$ from two kinds of mixed plastics. And in case of restricting PVC content such as PET, we developed the separation technique that can remove PVC up to $99.99\%$ from PET with PET recovery about $80\%$. Also, as we separated over $98\%$ for three kinds of mixed plastics, and then established material separation technique to increase recycling of plastic.
