This study was conducted to evaluate the properties of mixtures of mixed organic fertilizer (MOF) and various organic sources such as livestock manure compost (LMC), dried compost of poultry manure (CPM), dried food waste powder (FWP) and amino acid by-product fertilizer (ABF) and their influences on growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage. The content of N, P2O5 and K2O of mixture of MOF, LMC and FWP (MLF) was 3.6~3.9%, 2.1~2.2% and 1.3~1.4%, respectively. Lettuce dry weight of MLF3 treatment blending with MOF (60%), LMC (10%) and FWP (30%) was increased by about 29% than that of MOF. The content of N, P2O5 and K2O of mixture of MOF, CPM, FWP and ABF (MCFA) was 4.5~4.7%, 1.7~1.9% and 1.3~1.4%, respectively. Compared to MOF, growth factors of lettuce and Chinese cabbage in the MCFA treatments were not significantly deferent. These results indicated that MLFs and MCFAs, the mixtures of respectively organic sources and MOF, could be applied as orgnic fertilizer in the cultivation of lettuce and Chinese cabbage, and were expected that LMC and ABF might be used as another sources of organic fertilizer.

To use of industrial wastes as sources of fertilizer, the waste materials from 75 factories through-out the country were collected and analyzed. The wastes from fermentation, paper manufacture, food processing and textile industries might be useful sources of fertilizer. They contained high organic matters, nutrients and relatively low heavy metals.

This paper introduces about the study on the construction of zero energy villages in Korea using waste and biomass, and explains how to analyze the quantity of various resources from agriculture, livestock industry, forestry, and food waste with a village as a unit. Finally, three different scenarios for the construction of zero energy villages were suggested, based on the presumed amount of energy per each town.

This study was carried out to evaluate the possibility of composting for organic solid waste from restaurants and domestics. Small three vessels were prepared which were conditioned to semianaerobic, convectional and air-blowed type. During the experiment period for 4 months, the values of volatile solid(VS) %, moisture % and carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio of the wastes in the vessels were stabilized, 80 % to 40-50 %, 80 % to 48-55 % and 18 to 8-10, respectively. On the basis of VS % and C/N ratio, the reactions were more adaptable to 2nd order formula than to 1st order one, Reaction rate constant of the 3 vessels were estimated, $4.96{\times}10^{-5}(day^{-1})$ in the semianaerobic type, $5.82{\times}10^{-5}(day^{-1})$ in the convectional type and $8.42{\times}10^{-5}(day^{-1})$ in the air-blowed type on VS. Compared reaction rate constants(k), it can be said that composting period shorten if air is supplied artificially and that vessels simular to those of this study are useful for household organic waste at the backyards.

현대사회에서 플라스틱의 요구량은 꾸준히 증가하고 있으며 이에따라 생산량 역시 맞춰 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 전세계적으로 플라스틱으로 인해 발생하는 폐기물의 양 역시 증가하고 있으며 이로 인해 플라스틱 재질의 폐기물이 많아지고 있다. 이 중 가장 문제가 되는 폐기물이 바로 미세플라스틱이다. 미세플라스틱은 1㎛ ~ 5mm 미만의 플라스틱으로 그 물리 화학적인 특성으로 인해 회수가 어려우며 외부 환경에 잔류시 독성을 유발할 수 있다. 플라스틱의 약한강도와 열악한 내열성 그리고 유기용매에 취약하다는 단점을 보완하기 위해 첨가하는 화학물질로 인해 내분비계교란물질을 발생시켜 생명체의 내분비계를 교란시켜 최종적으로 성기능장애를 유발한다. 또한 미세플라스틱의 표면은 유기염류성 살충제와 같은 잔류성오염물질(POPs persistent organic pollutants)사이의 흡착성이 크기 때문에 미세플라스틱은 POPs 농도를 주변보다 최대 백만배 높게 만들 수 있다. 미세플라스틱의 분석은 표준화된 방식이 없어서 제각각이지만 대체로 미세플라스틱 표면에 응집된 유기물을 처리하는 전처리, 미세플라스틱의 농도를 분석하는 정량분석, 그리고 미세플라스틱의 성분을 분석하는 정성분석의 과정을 거쳐서 진행된다. 이러한 미세플라스틱의 분석법을 기반으로 하수처리장에 유입되는 하수의 미세플라스틱 분석방법을 제안하면 다음과 같다. 우선 유입수로부터 미세플라스틱을 따로 분리하기 위해 체거름을 진행했다. 이후 유입하수의 성상에 맞는 적정 전처리 방법을 알아내기 위해 유기물을 제거하기 위한 산화방식으롷서 과산화수소수, 80℃의 과산화수소수, 그리고 펜톤산화의 서로 다른 3가지 방식을 사용했다. 이후 이어지는 정량분석과 정성분석결과를 비교하여 유입하수에 가장 최적인 미세플라스틱 측정방법을 알아보고자 한다.

The objective of this research was to assess the effect of moisture content and water injection method into the landfill on waste decomposition in an aerobic landfill. Firstly, respirometric experiments were performed in order to assess the effect of initial moisture content (20%, 30%, 40% and 50% respectively) on landfilled waste decomposition. The cumulative oxygen uptake and oxygen uptake rate were highly increased with the increase of initial moisture content. Secondly, lysimeter experiments showed that in comparison with the vertical injection method, dry fog system enhanced decomposition of organic wastes. Also, dry fog system provided uniform moisture distribution more than the vertical injection method within landfill.

In Korea, it is required to install the final cover layer immediately after the end of use of the waste landfill, and to conduct aftercare for 30 years. However, the installation of the final cover layer minimizing the penetration of the rainfall will delay the decomposition of the buried organic wastes and reduce the amount of pollutants released into the leachate. Therefore, at the end of the aftercare period, pollutants might be discharged and cause the pollution of the surrounding environment. In this study, using lab-scale lysimeters, the amount of pollutants discharged into the leachate was observed. At the initial stage, same artificial rainfall was injected, and after 7 months later, different reduced artificial rainfall was injected for 8.4 months assuming as the final soil layer was installed. From the results, it was advantageous in terms of environmental management after the end of the aftercare period to install a temporary cover layer that permits the infiltration of rainfall to some extent rather than to install the final cover layer immediately after the end of use of the waste landfill.

The government is promoting recycling of waste resources through the enactment of Fundamental Law on Resource Circulation, the revision of the Wastes Control Act and zero-landfilling of untreated waste through improved processes such as recycling and diversification. As of 2015, the total amount of landfilled waste is 38,308 ton/day in Korea. The amount of landfilled waste from industrial sectors is 23,577 ton/day, accounting for 62 % of total landfilled waste. In the study, we investigated the characteristics of the thermal treatment residue among inorganic wastes and estimated the landfill reduction potential according to the relevant recycling criteria, which can go through recycling paths. As a result, it is estimated that about 5~42 % of the landfilled waste can be reduced in case mandatory recycling and landfill suppression policies such as recycling criteria for thermal processing residues and expansion of recycling obligation targets should be implemented. In order to minimize landfill disposal, it is necessary to expand the diversity of waste recycling type and the usage of recycled products.

최근 우리나라도 전업축산농가의 양계사육 규모가 확대되면서 이에 수반되는 양계장 주변의 악취, 수질 오염 등의 환경문제가 심각하게 대두되고 있다. 축산경영의 건전한 발전을 위해서도 이 문제의 해결은 시급한 과제이며 특히 경영주의 환경의식과 의지가 문제해결의 시발점임을 인식해야 한다. 물론 양계장에서 환경친화적으로 계분을 처리한다는 것은 그리 용이한 일은 아니다. 특히 산란계 사육농가의 계분은 끈적끈적한 오물감과 냄새로 취급하기가 쉽지 않다. 그 원인은 수분 함유량이 높고 역분해성 유기물(분해 용이한 유기물)이 부패되면서 악취와 해충을 발생시키기 때문이다. 현재 계분처리방법은 여러 가지가 있으나 첫째, 지구환경에 친화적인 처리방법으로는 유기성 폐기물인 계분의 재활용에 있다고 생각한다. 현재와 같이 지구환경의 밸런스가 망가지는 상황은 사람들이 다량의 소비만 일삼고 환경 리싸이클에 관심이 덜한데 있다고 본다. 자원 순환형 사회에서 계분의 퇴비화로 가축분뇨를 유통 · 활용하는 일은 유기성 자원의 리사이클에 공헌하는 의미가 크다고 본다. 또한 우리나라의 축산업이 환경 보전형 농업을 실현하는데 보탬이 되는 양질의 퇴비를 대량 생산하여 경작농가에 공급, 유기질 농산물 생산에 많이 기여하길 바란다.
