This study determined the spatial distribution characteristics of carbon dioxide in Northeast Asia, connecting land coverage and vegetation index that have influence on concentration and distribution of carbon dioxide measured by GOSAT with GIS spatial analysis method. The results visibly showed that the spatial distribution of carbon dioxide had different patterns in dependent on the present status of land use in its surrounding area. Such high concentration of carbon dioxide was formed in developed sites like cities while forest areas showed low concentration of it. We also found that there were relatively high negative(-) correlations between carbon dioxide and vegetation, in statistically significant level. It is expected to be used as a basic data for establishing measures to reduce greenhouse gas in the future.

One of the chronic problems in the issue of global warming is the emission of greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide (CO₂), which accounts for the highest proportion of various greenhouse gases, has been continuously researched by humans to separate it. From this point of view, a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based copolymer with acrylic acid monomer was utilized in a gas separation membrane in this study. We employed a free radical polymerization to fabricate PVA-g-PAA (VAA) graft copolymer. It was utilized in the form of a composite membrane on a polysulfone substrate. The proper amount of acrylic acid reduced the crystallinity of PVA and increased CO₂ solubility in separation membranes. In this perspective, we suggest the novel approach in CO₂ separation membrane area by grafting and solution-diffusion.

여러 생태계에서도 우리나라의 65%를 차지하는 산림지역에서의 이산화탄소 생성/소멸 기작에 대한 이해는 이산화탄소의 저감기술을 확립하는데 선행되어야 할 과정이다. 따라 우리나라의 대표 산림지역에서의 이산화탄소 플럭스 관측기법의 개발 및 정량적 관측은 온난화 물질 감시 기술 구현에 있어 중요한 관건이다. 이러한 관측을 통해 플럭스 자료를 활용한 다양한 차세대 지면과정 모형의 검정과 개선이 이루어져 지역/전구 기후모형 개발에 이바지할 수 있다. (중략)

In the present study, adaptability of cyber-physical system (CPS) for risk management of $CO_2$ storage site is examined and the subagging regression (SBR) method is proposed as a key component of the cyber-twin to estimate the risk due to potential $CO_2$ leakage. For these purposes, $CO_2$ concentration data monitored from a controlled $CO_2$ release field experiment is employed to validate the potentialities of the SBR method. From the validation study, it is found that the SBR method has robust estimation capability by showing minimal influence from anomalous measurements, and makes stable and sound predictions for the forthcoming $CO_2$ concentration trend. In addition, the method is found to be well suited as a tool of operational risk assessment based on real-time monitoring data due to the computational efficiency. The overall results suggest that the SBR method has potential to be an important component comprising the cyber twin of CPS for risk management of $CO_2$ storage site.

This paper presents an alternative decomposition technique to identify the relative importance of factors associated with changes in $CO_2$ emissions by using directional distance function to model the joint production of desirable and undesirable outputs. The key feature of the proposed approach is the introduction of fossil and non-fossil fuel energy input efficiencies, productivity change and emission intensity change. For the 27 OECD countries as a whole, the empirical results indicate that economic growth is the most important contributor to $CO_2$ emissions increase, while efficiency change is the most important component to $CO_2$ emissions reduction between 1980 and 2007. For more extensive insights, this paper divided 3 groups according to the emission growth rate and find out that high emission countries show relatively low production efficiencies and technical changes contributing $CO_2$ emissions increase. The results also provide that more strict environmental regulations are needed to improve the pollution intensity in these countries.

This study analyzed the amount of carbon dioxide reduction and economic benefits of detailed processes of CO₂ 6,000 tons plant facilities with mineral carbonation technology using carbon dioxide and coal materials emitted from domestic circulating fluidized bed combustion power plants. Coal ash reacted with carbon dioxide through carbon mineralization facilities is produced as a complex carbonate and used as a construction material, accompanied by a greenhouse gas reduction. In addition, it is possible to generate profits from the sales of complex carbonates and carbon credits produced in the process. The actual carbon dioxide reduction per ton of complex carbonate production was calculated as 45.8 kgCO₂eq, and the annual carbon dioxide reduction was calculated as 805.3 tonCO₂, and the benefit-cost ratio (B/C Ratio) is 1.04, the internal rate return (IRR) is 10.65 % and the net present value (NPV) is KRW 24,713,465 won, which is considered economical. Carbon mineralization technology is one of the best solutions to reduce carbon dioxide considering future carbon dioxide reduction and economic potential.

본 논문에서는 차량 내 이산화탄소 농도 측정을 통해 운전자의 졸음운전을 예방하는 모델을 제안한다. 제안된 모델은 이산화탄소 농도 측정 센서를 연결한 아두이노 보드를 차량 내부에 부착하여 측정된 수치를 실시간으로 분석한다. 분석된 수치를 운전자, 탑승자에게 전송하여 자발적으로 졸음 방지를 유도한다. 또한 설정된 수치 이상인 경우 차량 내 사용자와 차량 외 보호자에게도 경고 메시지를 전송하고 차량 내 공기 상태를 알린다. 추후 차량 내 환경과 운전 시간, 탑승자 정보 등을 활용하여 전송된 수치를 분석하면 운전 환경 개선을 위한 방안을 모색할 수 있다.

Wollastonite is a promising sustainable cement mineral which directly reacts with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate and silica gel. Due to the carbon dioxide reaction, it can be undoubtly one of materials for carbon capture, utilization, and storage. In this study, feasibility study for synthesizing the wolloastonite crystal using sand and waste glass was performed instead of using reactive but expensive silica fume for silica source.
