1999년도 전국의 대기오염물질 배출량은 371만톤으로 이 중 자동차 배출가스가 약42%를 차지하고 있다. 특히 서울등의 대도시의 경우 자동차공해 비중이 약80%를 넘어서기도 하여, 시민 건강에 대한 우려의 목소리가 높다. 자동차 배출 오염물질은 휘발유, 가스연료를 사용할 경우에는 일산화탄소(CO), 탄화수소(HC), 질소산화물(NOx) 및 미량의 황산화물이 주로 발생되며, 경유를 사용하는 경우에는 추가적인 PM이 배출된다. (중략)

최근 몇 년간 수도권 지역의 대기오염은 오존, 질소산화물, 미세 먼지 등과 같은 물질을 중심으로 지속적으로 악화되고 있다. 대기오염의 관리를 위해서는 어떤 분야에서 얼마만큼의 오염물질이 배출되고 있는 현황 파악이 필수적이다. 서울, 인천, 경기도는 대기질 규제지역 지정에 따른 실천계획 수립의 일환으로 처음으로 본격적인 배출목록 조사작업을 수행한 바 있다. 이 자료는 국내에서 수행된 최초의 배출목록으로 자료분류체계와 방법 등에 많은 진보가 있었다. (중략)

도시대기오염의 주요 배출원으로 알려진 자동차에서 배출되는 VOCs는 인체에 유해할 뿐만 아니라 대기 중에서 질소산화물(NOx)과 함에 광화학반응을 통한 오존 둥 2차 오염물질인 광화학산화물을 형성하는 전구물질로 작용하기 때문에 환경학적, 보건학적으로 매우 큰 영향을 미친다. 이러한 자동차 배출 VOCs가 오존생성에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 갈수록 증가하고 있는 대기중 오존 농도 심화현상의 규명과 대기질 개선을 위한 기초자료로서 매우 그 필요성이 더해가고 있다. (중략)

In order to deal with the globally increasing electric power demand and reduce $CO_2$ emission, complex thermoelectric power plants are being constructed in densely populated downtown areas. As the environmental regulations are continuously strengthened, various facilities like low NOx burner and SCR are being installed to reduce NOx emission. This study is applied using the TMS emission of $NO_2$ from combined heat and power plant located in Goyang-si Gyeonggi-do. Applying data to the computational fluid dynamics(CFD), and compared with the actual measurement results. It is judged that even though there might be differences between actual measurements and CFD results due to the instant changes of wind direction and wind speed according to measurement time during measurement period, modeling results and actual measurement results showed similar concentration at most forecasting areas and therefore, the forecasting concentration could be deducted which is close to actual measurement by calculating the contribution concentration considering the surrounding concentration in the future.

In this study, experimental investigations were conducted on NOx emission characteristics with fuel swirl flow in swirl combustor. Many types of vanes, which altered air and fuel swirl angles, were employed to verify the mixing processes. For strong air swirl, fuel counter-swirl resulted in relatively large turbulent intensity, high energy to the high frequency region and narrow width of high temperature region compared with co-swirl condition. These effects of fuel counter-swirl resulted in low NOx emission characteristics at strong air swirl condition. And NOx reduction mechanism was also discussed.

According to the NOx regulations of annex Vi to IMO MARPOL 73/78, all diesel engines with a power output of more than 130 kW should be delivered so as to comply with the IMO speed dependent NOx limit. It is inevitable to adopt this regulations for marine engines Therefore, most of diesel engines which are being currently built should be designed and tested in accordance with the NOx technical code In this study, NOx concentrations of 4 type engines were measured with portable NOx measuring system recommended by ISO-8178. As the results NOx concentrations of each engine by variation of engine speed and engine load were visualized Also these results can be utilized for the basic design and development of diesel engine for NOx reduction.

Conventionally, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the transport sector have been estimated using the fuel consumption (i.e. Tier 1 method). However, the GHG emissions on road networks may not be practically estimated using the Tier 1 method because it is not practical to monitor fuel consumption on a road segment. Further, air pollutant emissions on a road may not be estimated efficiently by the Tier 1 method either due to the diverse characteristics of vehicles, such as travel speed, vehicle type, model year, fuel type, etc. Given these conditions, the goal of this study is to propose a Tier 3 level methodology to calculate $CO_2$ and $NO_X$ emissions on inter-regional roads using the information from ITS infrastructure. The methodology may avoid the under-estimation issue caused by the concavity of emission factor curves because the ITS speed or volume information is aggregated by a short time interval. The proposed methodology was applied to 4 road segments as a case study. The results show that the management of heavy vehicles' speed is important to control the $CO_2$ and $NO_X$ emissions on road networks.

As the secondary battery market expands, the process of producing laterite ore using the rotary kiln and electric furnace method is expanding worldwide. As ESG management expands, the management of air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases is strengthened. The rotary kiln, one of the main facilities of the pyrometallurgy process, is a facility for drying and preliminary reduction of ore, and it generate nitrogen oxides, thus prediction of nitrogen oxide is important. In this study, LSTM for regression prediction and LightGBM for classification prediction were used to predict and then model optimization was performed using AutoML. When applying LSTM, the predicted value after 5 minutes was 0.86, MAE 5.13ppm, and after 40 minutes, the predicted value was 0.38 and MAE 10.84ppm. As a result of applying LightGBM for classification prediction, the test accuracy rose from 0.75 after 5 minutes to 0.61 after 40 minutes, to a level that can be used for actual operation, and as a result of model optimization through AutoML, the accuracy of the prediction after 5 minutes improved from 0.75 to 0.80 and from 0.61 to 0.70. Through this study, nitrogen oxide prediction values can be applied to actual operations to contribute to compliance with air pollutant emission regulations and ESG management.

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is known as a very efficient method to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) and the catalyst performs reduction from nitrogen oxides (NOx) to nitrogen (N₂) and water vapor (H2O). The catalyst, which is one of the factors determining the performance of the nitrogen oxide (NOx) ruduction method, is known to increase catalyst efficiency as cell density increases. In this study, the reduction characteristics of nitrogen oxides (NOx) under various engine loads investigated. A 100CPSI(60Cell) catalysts was studied through a laboratory-sized simulating device that can simulate the exhaust gas conditions from the power generation engine installed in the training ship SEGERO. The effect of 100CPSI(60Cell) cell density was compared with that of 25.8CPSI(30Cell) cell density that already had NOx reduction data from the SCR manufacturing. The experimental catalysts were honeycomb type and its compositions and materials of V₂O₅-WO₃-TiO₂ were retained, with only change on cell density. As a result, the NOx concentration reduction rate from 100CPSI(60Cell) catalyst was 88.5%, and IMO specific NOx emission was 0.99g/kwh satisfying the IMO Tier III NOx emission requirement. The NOx concentration reduction rate from 25.8CPSI(30Cell) was 78%, and IMO specific NOx emission was 2.00g/kwh. Comparing the NOx concentration reduction rate and emission of 100CPSI(60Cell) and 25.8CPSI(30Cell) catalysts, notably, the NOx concentration reduction rate of 100CPSI(60Cell) catalyst was 10.5% higher and its IMO specific NOx emission was about twice less than that of the 25.8CPSI(30Cell) catalysts. Therefore, an efficient NOx reduction effect can be expected by increasing the cell density of catalysts. In other words, effects to production cost reduction, efficient arrangement of engine room and cargo space can be estimated from the reduced catalyst volume.

이미 알려진 바와 같이 차세대 차량에 채용될 동력 시스템의 연구개발이 배출가스 규제에 대한 배기 성능의 획기적 개선에 집중되고 있는 한편, 포괄적 친환경 차량 개발 또한 일반의 관심을 끌고 있다. 현재에 이르기까지 배출가스 규제치 즉, 대기로 배출되는 질소산화물(NOx), 입자상물질(Particulate Matter, PM) 및 미연탄화수소 등에 대한 정량적 규제치의 만족여부가 차량의 친환경 여부를 가리는 척도로 주로 인식되어 왔으나, 금후 보다 본격적으로 완성차량 조립을 위한 전 제품의 제조과정으로부터 차량 폐기까지를 총괄한 포괄적 환경 영향 평가가 필수 불가결한 요소로 등장하리라 예측된다.
