Copper is used in many electronic components and construction parts due to its excellent electrical conductivity and heat transfer characteristics, and also used for pre-plating for double layer coating such as nickel, so that copper is an essential material in modern industry. Despite the expected increase of usage and importance on wiring, sensors and data equipment in the next generation industries, it is hard for securing stable copper supply and resource management resulting from the copper prices are fluctuating owing to the economic crisis in Europe, the low economic growth trend in China, and President Trump's commitment to public industrial facilities investment in U.S.. Since most of the domestic copper consumption is used by electrolytic copper cathode, we studied not only copper recycling technology which is being commercialized but also current research trend under the research stage. This study aims to examine the characteristics of each process and the areas where future recycling technology development is required.

This study is basic experiment which prevents indiscriminate reclamation and recycles the wasted tire in order to solve environmental pollution according to generation rate of the wasted tire from recently industrial development. By applying as the substitute material of the lightweight aggregate among the constructional materials in order to evaluate the lightness of the wasted tire chip and suggest the recycling plan of the wasted tire chip. The prior experiment did the replacement ratio of the wasted tire with 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%, etc. and made a study on the strength and density properties. Based on the prior experiment of wasted tire, the replacement ratio was fixed at 15, 20, 25%, particle size of wasted tire was fixed at 0.2, 0.8, 1~2, 3~5, 5~7(mm). As a result, it is supposed that the best replacement ratio and particle size are 15% and 1~2mm, respectively.

This paper will introduce the study which is the solidification and reduction of $CO_2$ green house gas, by using inorganic industrial wastes such like waste cement, steel making slag, incineration ash and so on. These inorganic wastes contain a large quantity of CaO content in common, which is easily reacted with CaO resulting in formation of $CaCO_3$. It will be suggested in this study that the necessary of the reduction and solidification of $CO_2$ gas with using industrial inorganic wastes is for building the Korea carbon storage model in this study.

폐자원의 재활용은 현재 미래산업을 발전시키는데 중요한 변수로 작용하고 있으며, 폐플라스틱의 경우 통신 케이블 덕트, 고속전철용 케이블 덕트, 선박용 구조체등 고부가가치 제품으로의 기술개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 폐 Polyolefin 계열의 수지는 성형가공이 적절한 MFI(Melt flow index)와 뛰어난 기계적 물성, 가공 성형성 등으로 인해 다양한 형태와 용도로 recycling되고 있으나, 재생시 다수 Grade에 의한 분별, 분리수거의 어려움, 상용성결여, 난연성 부재 그리고 70% 대의 기계적 물성 회복율로 인해 그 용도가 제한되고 있는 실정이다.(중략)

Recovery of precious metal values from petrochemical spent catalyst is important from the viewpoint of environmental protection and resource recycling. Two types of spent catalysts were used in this study. One used in the manufacture of ethylene contains 0.3% Pd in the alumina substrate. The other used in oil refining contains 0.3% Pt and 0.3% Re. Both spent catalysts are roasted to remove volatile matters as carbon and sulfur. Then, metallic Pd powder from Pd spent catalyst is obtained in the course of grinding, hydrochloric acid or aqua regia leaching and cementation with iron. For the recovery of Pt and Re from Pt-Re spent catalyst, Pt and Re are leached with either HCI or aqua regia, first. Metallic Pt powder is recovered from the leach solution by cementation with Fe powder. Re in sulfide form is precipitated by the addition of sodium sulfide to the solution obtained after Pt recovery. It is found that 6N HCI can be successfully used as leaching agent for both types of spent catalyst. 6N HCI is considered to be better than aqua regia in consideration of reagent and equipment cost.

The generation of wastewood is currently about 40% level of the amount of domestic wood use. When the rate of wood self-supply is considered, the recycling of wastewood in wood panel products industry should be encouraged. This study was evaluated the performance of particleboard (PB) made from wastewood. PBs were manufactured with the synthesized urea-formaldehyde resin at 5 minutes hot-press time, and at 162℃ press temperature with 6 percent resin solids level on an ovendry wastewood particle weight basis. The PBs were tested by the procedure of ASTM D 1037. Test results exceeded the minimum strength requirement according to KS F 3104 Particleboard type 8.0. The PB's performance showed that wastewood is suitable raw material for PB.

The development of the electrical, electronic, and telecommunication industries has increased the share of electricity in total energy consumption. With the enforcement of the Act on the Promotion of the Development, Use, and Diffusion of New and Renewable Energy in 2021, the mandatory supply ratio of new and renewable energy is expected to expand, and the amount of waste cables generated in the stage of replacing and discarding cables used in the industry is also expected to increase. The purpose of this study was to quantify the environmental burden of waste cable recycling through the life cycle assessment (LCA) method. The results showed that the higher the amount of glue contained in the waste cable, the greater was the amount of fine dust and greenhouse gases generated. In addition, by assigning weights to 10 environmental burden items, it was confirmed that the marine aquatic eco-toxicity potential (MAETP) and human toxicity potential (HTP) had the greatest environmental burden. The main causes were identified as heptane and ethanol, which were the glue contained in the waste cable and the cleaning solutions used to remove them. Therefore, it is necessary to refrain from using glue in the cable production process and reduce the environmental burden by reducing the use of waste cable cleaning solutions used in the recycling process or using alternative materials.
