본 연구는 국제환경규제에 따라 폐자동차의 재활용율 향상을 위한 재활용 부품 우선순위를 도출하고, 폐시트 등 부품 재활용에 의한 환경성을 평가하기 위하여 폐차 해체시스템 전과정평가를 수행하였다. 연구결과 차피의 고철을 재활용 할 경우에는 지구온난화와 오존층파괴에 큰 환경이득을 얻을 수 있으나 폐시트를 폴리올 원료로 재활용할 경우에는 많은 자원의 사용으로 오히려 소각으로 인한 환경부하보다 지구온난화와 오존층파괴, 광화학산화물생성 등의 부하를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 폐차의 95% 이상을 재활용 및 회수하기 위해서는 분해시간 및 시장성, 기술현황 등을 종합하여 고려하여야 하며 재활용이 곤란한 유리와 같은 다른 부품과 함께 시트의 물질재활용도 반드시 포함되어야 될 것으로 사료된다. 처리와 재활용에 따른 환경성을 비교한 결과 재활용이 필요한 부품은 시트와 유리가 가장 시급하며, 배터리, 혼합플라스틱도 재활용시 환경친화적 공정개발이 필요한 것으로 도출되었다.

It is to review the current status of magnesium smelting. Raw materials for magnesium source, worldwide production and producers of metallic magnesium, Korean magnesium markets and some important extraction technologies were reviewed. The magnesium extraction technologies were described according to the two major reduction methods: the fused salt electrolysis and the thermal reduction method. Also, the research on the extraction of magnesium from magnesite which has been being carried out at KIGAM was briefly introduced with discussing the related topics on the recycling of the chlorine and the hydrogen chloride gas used in the process.

The study on the recovery of Nylon from a radiator of End-of-Life Vehicle was conducted by using triboelectrostatic separation technique. For the effective separation of the sample(Nylon, PP glass), charge polarity and amount of each sample with various charging materials have been investigated by faraday cage. And then, charging material was selected as carrying out basic separation experiments with materials that can be possible to polarize samples. Finally, the continuos type triboelectrostatic separator was developed with selected charging material and the recovery possibility of the sample was confirmed as carrying out various separation experiments.

Number of vehicles in Korea is gradually increasing and it exceeded 16 million in 2007. Holding of vehicles is connected to disposal, owing to this reason the importance of ELVs recycling has been emphasized. The recycling of ELVs makes the disposal of ELVs easier as well as protects environment and it has the alternative effect economizing the insufficient resource. This study was carried out to evaluate the economic effect of recycling of ELVs compared with disposal of ELVs. The analysis showed that recycling process makes a profit in comparison to the disposal of ELVs. Therefore the government has to consider establishing the regulation related to recycling of ELVs or materials and car manufactures have to develop the efficient dismantling and recycling methods.

마그네슘은 자동차 엔진 경량화재료, 휴대폰케이스 등 기능성 경량재료로서의 용도개발과 함께 수요가 증가하고 있다. 마그네슘 제련법은 원료광의 특성에 따라 달라지는데 크게 용융염전해법과 열환원법 두 가지로 구분할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 염화마그네슘을 사용하여 용융염전해법에 의해 전해 마그네슘을 얻고자 하였다. 전해전압 7V로 일정한 전극침지 깊이에서 두 가지 염욕을 비교 실험하였으며, $KCl/NaCl/MgCl_2$ 혼합 염욕을 $760^{\circ}C$에서 전해한 결과 약 47%의 전류효율을 달성할 수 있었다. 회수된 전해 마그네슘의 순도는 98% 이상이었다. 본 연구를 통하여 용융염 전해장치를 스케일엎하거나 상용화시에 장치설계 등에 필요한 기초 자료들을 축적할 수 있었다.

Waste tires are increased by increasing number of automobiles, which are the symbol of the mordern society. The waste tires create the environmental, visual hazard and landfill space problems. Recycling waste tires is the best way to solve the problems. The landfill space and the natural resources could by reserved by utilizing waste tires. The waste tires were utilized as whole tires, processed tires (crumb rubber) and energy. The plants for manufacturing crumb rubber also were investigated for their equipments and scales.

The Korean Auto industry has developed remarkably over the past 30 years. In 2000 alone, Korea produced 3.11 million vehicles, and the number of vehicles registered surpassed the ten million mark. As the number of vehicles registered in Korea has increased, yew after you, a rising number of cars have been scrapped. In 2000, a total of 455,592 automobiles were scrapped, up dramatically from only 101,158 in 1989. The system for handling of ELV(End-of-Life Vehicles) in Korea is governed by the "Motor Vehicle Control Act". The Act places the responsibility for vehicle scrapping directly on the vehicle owners. h vehicle owner can only can eel a vehicle registration after he gets a certificate from an authorized vehicle dismantler showing that his vehicle was properly scrapped according to the law. The take-back rate of ELV reaches nearly 100% in Korea. The vehicle scrapping process in Korea is very similar to those in other countries. fluids such as fuels and oils are first removed, and recyclable parts are collected and separated. Engines and transmissions are dismantled and recycled for use as raw material. Plastics, which are not easily reused, are generally treated as industrial wastes. The "Motor Vehicle Control Act" prohibits reuse of certain parts in order to guarantee the safety of the used auto parts. However, some restrictions on the reuse of auto parts have recently been eased to promote recycling. In this paper, additionally, car recycling policy of the foreign countries such as Japan, Germany and EU were reviewed.

The glass has been used continuously since ancient period up to the present day. The smart glass industry in which the advanced technology is added is developing. The life cycle of the smart glass is faster than traditional glass. Therefore, the basic and core technology development is needed for recycling of smart glass according to the replace period. Among the smart glass the recycling development of the automobile industry is the most needed areas. At the end of life of the automobile, the amount of the smart glass is expected to be over 23,000 tons per year. In this paper, the current status of domestic Korean automobile glass has been comprehensively investigated. Finally, Korean domestic smart glass recycling technology is also briefly introduced.

Recycling of spent autocatalyst that includes the platinum group metals (PGMs), namely palladium, platinum and rhodium, is a very profitable endeavor. In order to ensure an efficient promotion of an appropriate policy-making and the technical development of the recycling process of spent autocatalyst in Korea, the generated amount, trading conditions, and recycling technology for spent autocatalyst were surveyed. The generated amount of spent autocatalyst was estimated by analyzing the domestic statistical data of registration & disuse of automobiles and the records of autocatalyst installation to new cars. The review of the recycling technology was carried out by surveying the recycling processes of 'Heesung PMTech Ltd.', which is the largest company in the recycling industry for spent autocatalyst in Korea. In addition to the above, some policy suggestions for the improvement of recycling industries for spent autocatalyst were offered.
