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.

A study on the preparation of RDF with ASR materials from shredder line of end-of-life vehicles has been peformed by using hot molding method. ASR materials used in the work were plastics, fibers and sponge which were cut by less than 10 mm in size prior to hot molding and 40, 60 and 80 mm mold in diameter were employed for RDF forming. It was found that heating temperature, heating time and mixing ratio of materials played an important role in the hot molding of ASR materials. Density of RDF samples Prepared in the work was in the range of 0.5∼0.9gr/ml depending on the hot molding conditions and it was decreased with increase in the content of sponge. Breaking strength of RDF samples was observed to 0.8∼3.0MPa and it was also increased with increase in density of RDF samples. Finally, when heating temperature was elevated, density of RDF was increased due to Increase in molten part of ASR materials which resulted in the enhancement of breaking strength of RDF.

An color sorting technique was introduced to recycle End-of-life automobile shredded bumpers. The color sorting is a innovate method of separating the differences in the color of materials which are difficult to separate in gravity and size classification by using a camera and an image process technique. Experiments were planned and optimal conditions were derived by applying BBD (Box-Behnken Design) in the reaction surface method. The effects of color sensitivity, feed rate and sample size were analyzed, and a second-order reaction model was obtained based on the analysis of regression and statistical methods and $R^2$ and p-value were 99.56% and < 0.001. Optimum recovery was 94.1% under the conditions of color sensitivity, feed rate and particle size of 32%, 200 kg/h, and 33 mm respectively. The recovery of actual experiment was 93.8%. The experimental data agreed well with the predicted value and confirmed that the model was appropriate.

This study aims at evaluating the environmental impacts stemmed from the End-of-Life Vehicle(ELV) treatment systems in Korea, using Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) method. In this study, both environmental burden from the ELV dismantling process & recycling processes and environmental benefit which were derived from the avoided environmental impacts by substituting recycled materials for virgin materials were considered. First of all, the key issues which were defined as the environmental aspects that account for more than $1\%$ out of the total environmental impacts were identified from the Life Cycle Impact Assessment(LCIA). $CO_2$, crude oil, natural gas, coal, etc. were found out to be the key issue parameters. From the LCI Analysis and LCIA studies, it was shown that the significant environmental aspects were related with the recycling process of ferro scrap, the shredding process of compressed car bodies and the dismantling process of end-of-life engines. In particular, the recycling process of ferro scrap has the most significant effects on the environmental impacts of the ELV treatment systems. Based on these results, it is recommended to improve the recycling process of ferro scrap in order to make the ELV treatment systems more environmentally sound.

Deactivated three-way catalysts which had been exposed to gasoline engine exhaust for a long time were remanufactured by ultra sonic cleaning with distilled water, sulfuric acid solution and impregnation with precious metals (Pt, Pd, Rh). The catalytic properties as well as conversion reactivity of CO, THC and NOx about fresh, aged and remanufactured catalysts were examined. Most of the pollutants deposited on the aged three-way catalysts were removed in the remanufacturing process of those catalysts. At the same time a little amount of precious metals like Pt and Pd were removed in the remanufacturing process. Under the experimental condition used in this study, in the case of the remanufactured catalysts with impregnation of precious metals, the catalytic activities were recovered to almost the same level, or higher level of that of the fresh catalyst.

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.

최근 전 세계적으로 온실가스에 의한 환경 문제가 심각해짐에 따라 수송 분야에서 친환경 에너지를 사용하는 요구가 확대되고 있다. 철도분야에서도 이산화탄소 배출 통제와 더불어 추진에너지로서의 배터리의 사용을 검토하고 있고 관련된 연구가 증가하고 있다. 전기자동차에 비해 철도차량의 배터리는 대용량이 필요하며 철도운영 특성상 초기 도입 비용은 물론 유지관리 비용도 발생된다는 한계점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 배터리를 적용한 철도차량의 경제성을 높이기 위해 철도차량용 폐배터리의 재활용 방안에 대해서 연구해 보겠다. 이를 위해 현재 전기자동차분야의 폐배터리 재활용 동향에 대해 알아보고 철도차량용 배터리의 재활용 가능성을 검토해보겠다.
