Research on effective dose analysis of actual conditions of use based on large data is scarce. In this study, the exposure conditions of Chest X-Ray examinations used by 324 medical institutions in Korea were calculated and evaluated using computer simulations. As a result of the experiment, the effective dose in the low energy parameter bands was 0.024 mSv, followed by spleen, adrenal glands, and lung. The effective dose in the high-energy exposure parameter band was 0.123 mSv, followed by height, spleen and adrenal glands. The effective dose was 0.017 mSv when the optimal conditions considered the quality and exposure proposed in Park's study were used. The results of the study will be a reference for chest X-rays and will help reduce patient exposure.

A detailed database of waste heat is built to propose energy exchange networks to recover waste energy in Pohang Steel Industrial Complex. A visualized technique is used to figure out the status of waste heat energy and to suggest potential energy exchange networks. Several energy networks are proposed in terms of temperature level, the amount of available energy, distance, and construction cost. A simple economical assessment is applied to the energy exchange networks which have higher economic potential. Their average payback period is estimated to be 2.8 years. The total amount of energy saving by constructing the proposed energy exchange networks is 4,778 TOE per year. It corresponds to 11,160 ton $CO_2$ reduction with the assumption that the recycled waste energy replaces the use of LNG in energy-demanding companies.

석탄으로부터 합성석유를 생산하는 상용기술을 도입하여 건설하고 이와 더불어 원천기술 개발을 위한 국산화 기술 개발을 병행하여 향후 고유가 시대를 대비한 국가 에너지 안보 확립과 국내 기술 개발의 가속화를 추구해야 할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 타당성 조사는 3종류의 석탄(호주 Wyong탄, 인도네시아 NTC탄, 인도네시아 KBB탄)으로부터 가스화에 의하여 합성석유스를 생산하는 공정에 대한 타당성 조사(Feasibility Study, FS)를 Class 5(하한 -50~-20%, 상한 30~100%)의 정확도로 수행하는 것을 내용으로 하고 있다. 플랜트의 규모는 합성석유 기준으로 20,000배럴/일이다. 플랜트의 건설을 위해서 광양제철소 슬래그처리장 내 12만평 부지에 조성 중인 포스코 SNG 생산공장 부지의 일부를 사용하는 것을 기준으로 하였다. 일반적으로 석탄의 종류에 따라서 가스화기의 종류 및 성능이 결정된다. 본 타당성 조사 연구에서 선정된 3종류의 석탄의 조성, 발열량, 회분 함량 등의 특성을 고려하여 각각의 석탄에 적합한 현존하는 상용급 가스화기를 선정하였다. 해당 석탄이 가스화기 종류에 따라 적절한 전처리 과정(건조, 분쇄, 슬러리화)을 거친 후 가스화기에 공급되는 것을 가정하여 석탄의 원소분석 조성, 발열량, 회분함량, 회분조성, 회 용융점 등의 변수에 따라서 각각 해당 가스화기에서 가스화되었을 때의 생성되는 합성가스의 조건을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 얻었다. 가스화기 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로 합성석유 및 합성천연가스 생산을 위한 공정의 물질수지식 및 에너지수지식이 계산되었으며 이로부터 각 공정에서 발생되는 부생성물과 폐기물에 대한 양이 결정되고 이를 처리하는 방안 등도 제시되었다. 실증시설은 20,000배럴/일 규모의 CTL 및 전기 병산 시설이 적합하다. 더 큰 규모 공장은 투자비가 너무 커서 유가 또는 석탄가 변동에 따라 사업의 수익성이 크게 변하여 위험도가 큰 단점이 있기 때문이다. CTL 공장에 전기 병산이 추천되는 이유는 산소생산공장(APU), 압축 등 석탄전환공장에는 자체적인 전기수요가 막대하여 따로 스팀터빈용 발전소를 운영하므로 이를 효율적으로 대체하고자 하기 때문이다. 즉, 석탄가스화에 의해 기름을 최대한 만들고 미반응가스는 가스터빈 및 스팀터빈의 복합발전에 의해 고효율로 전기를 생산하면 최소의 비용으로 최대한 전기를 생산하여 자체소비 전력을 충당하고 남는 전기는 판매하여 수익률을 높일 수 있다.

Compared to gaeous hydrogen, liquid hydrogen has approximately 1/800 volume, 800 times higher volumetric energy density at the same pressure, and the advantage of lower explosion risk and easier transportation than gaseous hydrogen. However, hydrogen liquefaction requires larger scale facility investment than simple compression storage method. Therefore, the research on energy-saving hydrogen liquefaction processes is highly necessary. In this study, helium/neon (mole ratio 80 : 20) refrigeration cycle was investigated as the main refrigeration process for hydrogen liquefaction. Process simulation for less energy consumption were carried out using PRO/II with PROVISION V10.2 of AVEVA. For hydrogen liquefaction, energy consumption was compared in three cases: Using a helium/neon refrigerant cycle, a SMR+helium/neon refrigerant cycle, and a C3-MR+helium/neon refrigerant cycle. As a result, the total power consumptions of compressors required to liquefy 1 kg of hydrogen are 16.3, 7.03 and 6.64 kWh, respectively. Therefore, it can be deduced that energy usage is greatly reduced in the hydrogen liquefaction process when the pre-cooling is performed using the SMR process or the C3MR process, which have already been commercialized, rather than using only the helium/neon refrigeration cycle for the hydrogen liquefaction process.

In this study, the effect of chemical additives on the reduction of fine particles was identified in $9.2MW_e$ commercial scale circulating fluidized bed boiler firing bituminous coal. Futhermore, a simple and effective method of fine particle collection has been developed to collect the fine particles of the boiler during fossil fuel combustion. Chemical additives were used to reduce particles below 10 PM in the flue gas, and borax solution was used as a chemical additive. In order to identify the particle behavior of PM 10 or less among the collected fine particles, it was analyzed through particle size analyzer and SEM analysis. The Borax solution tends to absorb molten mineral in the flue gas and make fine particles grow. As a result, it was analyzed that particles smaller than $10{\mu}m$ were reduced by using borax solution.

In case of the Sea Areas Utilization Consultation about fishery harbor facilities there has been problems excepting a mooring facility and having the same scope of business subject with harbor, while those scale are different. In this study, we analyzed the 17 cases of the statements for Sea Areas Utilization Consultation according to the development projects of fishery harbors for 2013-2014 and suggested the improvement way to go. First, it is needed to reassess the scope of business subject about fishery harbor because the environmental effects about the development projects for the fishery harbor are not considered separately by facilities, development project for the fishery harbor. Therefore, the reassessment about them are needed surely. Second, the adjustment of the range about fishery harbor facilities on the Sea Area Utilization Consultation is needed because in case of most small fishery ports, the sizes of those facilities are less than the boundary area ($50,000m^2$). Last, consultation subjects shall be more clear in order to protect confusions-related with applying for the Consultation on Utilization of Sea Areas. A new rule for clarifying consultation on business subjects is needed in order to reduce the unclarity and the confusions from being occurred by difference between 'occupancy or use permit of public waters' and 'exclusion of application' and business subjects according to the Public Waters Management and Reclamation Act and the Marine Environment Management Act, respectively.

Understanding of the amount of energy resources and site selection are required prior to develop Ocean Thermal Energy (OTE). It is necessary to calculate the appearance probability of difference of seawater temperature(${\Delta}T$) between sea surface layer and underwater layers. This research mainly aimed to calculate the appearance probability of ${\Delta}T$ using frequency analysis(FA) and harmonic analysis(HA), and compare the advantages and weaknesses of those methods which has used in the South Sea of Korea. Spatial scale for comparison of two methods was divided into local and global scales related to the estimation of energy resources amount and site selection. In global scale, the Probability Differences(PD) of calculated ${\Delta}T$ from using both methods were created as spatial distribution maps, and compared areas of PD. In local scale, both methods were compared with not only the results of PD at the region of highest probability but also bimonthly probabilities in the regions of highest and lowest PD. Basically, the strong relationship(pearson r=0.96, ${\alpha}$=0.05) between probabilities of two methods showed the usefulness of both methods. In global scale, the area of PD more than 10% was less than 5% of the whole area, which means both methods can be applied to estimate the amount of OTE resources. However, in practice, HA method was considered as a more pragmatic method due to its capability of calculating under various ${\Delta}T$ conditions. In local scale, there was no significant difference between the high probability areas by both methods, showing difference under 5%. However, while FA could detect the whole range of probability, HA had a disadvantage of inability of detecting probability less than 10%. Therefore it was analyzed that the HA is more suitable to estimate the amount of energy resources, and FA is more suitable to select the site for OTE development.
