The end-of-life vehicles (ELV) are important recycling sources, and there are several stages involved in the recycling such as dismantling, shredding, and treatment of shredder residues (ASR). The legal recycling rate should be at least 95% on and after 2015, while we need a proper system to monitor recycling of ELV components and to calculate the practical recycling rate. The paper suggests a monitoring system that calculates practical recycling rates of dismantled components by use of a database of standard recycling rate as well as a web-based monitoring, which is linked to the Eco Assurance system for electric & electronic equipment and vehicle (EcoAS). Also the system supports dismantling and monitoring process by incorporating a standard vehicular component database, which facilitates recording dismantled weight data but also monitoring of dismantled components.

Recently, metal-composite hybrid structures became a very attractive material system for various applications such as automobile and air vehicles due to their design flexibility as well as superior mechanical properties. On the other hand, recycling is a hot issue to reduce material wastes and environmental pollution, so that many countries made recycling regulations. But the recycling of metal-composite hybrid structures is not fully considered since the development and application are very early stage. We developed and optimized the recycling process for metal-composite hybrid structures based on the easy adaptation of the local recycling companies.

우리나라의 지반조사 전문업체는 200여 개에 이르며 연간 시추연장은 약 500 km에 달하고 있다(구호본, 1995). 한국 도로공사의 경우만 하더라도 연간 약 500공의 시추조사가 이루어지고 있다(장병욱 외, 1997). 이에 따라 국내 시추시장의 규모는 연간 약 500억원에 이르는 것으로 알려져 있다(구호본, 1995). 그러나 이러한 막대한 양의 지반정보들은 불행히도 해당 사업에서 사용되고 나면 재활용되지 못하고 공사 완료와 함께 사장되고 만다. 이에 따라 값진 수많은 지반 정보들이 재활용되지 못함으로서 잠재 가치의 손실을 초래할 뿐더러 자료의 표준화가 이루어져 있지 않기 때문에 업체간 또는 기관간 자료 공유는 더더욱 기대하기 어렵다.

The aim of this study is to provide basic concept for recycling-industrial park, such as necessity of recycling industry, role of park, construction scheme, etc, in metropolitan area. For this study, questionnaire survey, examination of regulations and walk over survey on industrial parks were conducted. In metropolitan area, recycling industry made incomes of 445 billion won per year and supplied work place for 44 thousand persons. Based on present status and questionnaire analysis, waste recyclers had difficulties in securing factory site, impending the term of contract, NIMBY and proper treating a lot of solid wastes and wastewater, and construction of recycling-industrial park was supposed to be a tool to overcome those problems faced to waste recyclers. By considering the availability of existing industrial park, constraints of constructing new park in metropolitan area, potential recycling amounts and low opinion of moving in to parks, it is reasonable that Inchon-kanghwa district or Seoul adjacent district is potential sites, area for recycling-industrial park are within 640 thousand Pyong, and plastic recyclers are main invited item.

Recently, plastic waste in Korea has been recognized as a critical issue due to an increase in massive production of plastics, difficulty in disposal of waste plastics, and public recognition of toxicity in micro-plastics, etc. To resolve those problems, the regulation to reduce plastics consumption may be primarily considered but, in this case, clarification should be made on the rationales and the action plans in the regulation for individual waste plastic items. Another problem is the small capital sizes of domestic recycling companies, which leads to poor R&D capacity, low recycling yields and thus lowering values of recycling items. This adversely affects consumers' perception. The R&D toward recycling technical progress should take into account the environmental friendliness and recyclability from the early product design stages. Certainly, this should be supported in governmental policy and public action plans. In addition, by referring to advanced policies of i.e. European Union, the recycling industry should be recognized as an opportunity toward new investment & employment. If necessary, the regulation of plastic consumption through a formal evaluation process such as Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) will also be helpful. The values of recycled plastics should be improved through the identification and elimination of harmful chemical substances potentially contained in the products.

Foundry sands are made up of silica and some coking agents, such as bentonite or resin, and used as templates for the production of various casting products. Foundry sands, which are repeatedly used, were finally transformed into the waste materials by heat, losing their proper functions. The used foundry sands have been treated as general wastes according to the contents of coking agents used. Silica, however, can be recycled through the proper treatment due to its physical property not to changed by heat. In this study, we have identified and investigated at the occurrence, treatment and recycling status of the used foundry sands, as well as for the regime and inhibitory factors of the recycling of them in domestic and foreign cases.

친환경 디자인이란 환경과 생태적 측면을 고려한 제반 디자인 활동이나 경향을 의미하며, 최근 많은 기업체에서 친환경 제품이나 서비스를 통해 일반 소비자들과 소통하는 중요한 분야로 인식되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 백화점 쇼핑백 디자인의 재활용 여부와 경험, 횟수, 관심도, 조형성 평가를 통해 주요 3개국(한국, 일본, 미국) 백화점 쇼핑백에 대한 일반소비자들의 친환경적 소구에 대한 인식과 선호도 연구결과를 조사하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서는 분석을 위해 연구범위를 주요 3개국 고급백화점으로 제한하였으며, 분석 대상업체의 개수를 한국 4업체, 일본 4업체, 미국 6업체 등 최종 3개국 14업체를 분석대상으로 선정하고 통계분석(spsswin18.O)하였다. 본 고는 한국브랜드디자인학회 통권 제24호에서 발췌했다.

European directive DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC requires minimum recycling & recovery rates on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). We tried to make references for recycling and recovery rates of parts and materials used in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE), which could be used to calculate recyclability and recoverability rates of a product in the development phase. First, we investigated recycling processes of WEEE and recycling and recovery characteristics of parts and materials. Based on the investigation results and the european recycling data, we made a data base of parts and materials for calculation of recycling and recovery rates of EEE. The developed DB was improved by reflecting advices of european experts.
