Waste refrigerator is the most large amount of item being recycled and the recycling process is the most complicated in WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) because refrigerator is biggest product and consists of various parts and materials such as ferrous, non-ferrous, and plastics. Recently, recycling process of waste refrigerator has been being more complex since large capacity 2 door refrigerators and standing Kimchi refrigerators with various material are distributed on custom market. In addition, recycling of valuable resource from waste refrigerator is mandatory by WEEEs recycling legislation; therefore, high efficiency recycling enough for economic and environment-friendly recovery of valuable resource through present technical situation analysis and comparison of recycling technologies of waste refrigerator with advanced country.

The recycling of waste resources, such as spent catalysts, primarily involves leaching and extracting metal components via smelting. These metal components are then recovered as salts, such as sulfates and nitrates. When crystallization occurs during the calcination of the recovered salts, the salts are converted into oxides, which are then reduced to form metals or ceramic materials. Common reducing agents used in oxide reduction include hydrogen and carbon, and metal powders are obtained upon reduction. Carbide synthesis can occur if the recycled element is a transition metal and carbon is used as the reducing agent. Despite being ceramic materials, transition metal carbides exhibit excellent conductivity owing to their metallic bonding. Recently, MXene, a two-dimensional transition metal carbide, has gained attention for electromagnetic wave shielding, secondary battery electrodes, and water purification owing to its electrical conductivity and large surface area. This study developed a process for synthesizing high-value MXene materials from waste resources. The properties of these MXenes were evaluated to confirm the potential of using waste resources as raw materials for MXenes.

Today's human life is more conveniently advantaged and abundant as industrial society advanced. However, the development has been creating a serious environmental crisis. Environmental pollution and exhaustion of natural resources recently became an important issue in construction industry as well as the concern about construction waste management and recycling the resources has arisen. Because the industrial wastes are not only increased quantitatively but also qualitatively intricate and various, groping for ways of reducing the use of resources primarily and recycling is urged on promotion. Currently, only about 33% of the wood wastes produced in construction site are recycled and the others are incinerated or disposed through irregular circulation process. In this study, I will investigate the present status of generating, processing, and recycling construction wood wastes and compare domestic disposal trend to other countries. In addition, I will analyze the actual condition of processing wood wastes in the construction site, verify the irrational causes, and simplify anomalous factors for the purpose of more efficient and correct activation of wood waste treatment and recycling on construction field and protection of environment in the long run.

This study examined the recycling system of a foreign lung excreta system. First, the measures for promoting the recycling of a pulmonary digestive system were as follows. Second, a manual considering specialization, such as the construction of a recycling treatment system of fire extinguishers and the collection, transportation, recycling, publicity, and education of fire extinguishers, were developed. Third, an education and counseling system is needed to overcome the lack of experience and technical support for systematic and safe disposal of pulmonary digestive system. Fourth, to promote the recycling of fire extinguishers in the government and fire extinguisher related organizations, it is necessary to prevent environmental pollution and recycle parts to reduce the waste of resources and improve the fire extinguisher quality by fostering a fire safety industry and policy support.

주석은 최근 첨단 전기, 전자 제품의 핵심 소재로써 지속적인 수요 증가가 예상되는 전략 금속이다. 국내의 수요량은 2011년 기준 약 17,000톤 으로 99% 이상 수입에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 국내의 주석 제련 산업은 전무한 상태이며 폐자원에서 재활용하는 회수 기술도 초보 단계이다. 이러한 폐자원 발생량은 12,000톤/year이며, 약 1200억원에 달하는 규모이다. 다양한 폐자원의 선별적 전처리 요소 기술 개발 및 회수 공정 시스템 개발이 절실히 요구된다. 본 연구에서는, 주석 폐자원 중 solder 용융물 및 공정 스크랩 Lead solder, Lead-free solder 등 뿐만 아니라, ITO target 제조 시 발생하는 ITO sludge 등의 고상 폐자원으로부터 페자원의 물성을 파악하여 금속/산화물과의 파/분쇄 및 분급공정을 통하여 고품위의 주석 금속을 회수하였다. 뿐만 아니라, 고순도 주석시 발생하는 양극 슬라임 침출액 등의 액상 폐자원으로부터 희소금속의 추출 및 회수를 위해 습식 전처리 공정을 수행하였다. 침출액은 주석, 구리, 납 등의 유가금속이 이온형태로 존재하고 있으며, Chlorine이 다량 함유되어 있다. 고품위의 주석 산화물을 회수하기 위하여 침출액 내의 구리 제거 공정, Chlorine 제거 공정 등을 순차적으로 수행하여 고품위의 산화물 회수를 수행하였다.

Although the generation of waste flat panel displays in Korea is expected to exceed one million sets in 2016, a comprehensive recycling technology has not yet been developed for effective recovery of valuable materials from the wastes, rendering to outshine the national prestige as a global leader in display industries. The overall aim of this study was to analyze the statistical data of various valuable materials and their ratio after dismantling 40-inch and 42-inch sized waste LCDs. The analysis results showed that plastic portion of the wastes was about 22% and the portion of PCB (Print Circuit Board) part was about 9% by weight whereas panel part was about 34% and leftovers including metals totalled about 35% by weight. Based on the analytical results, a higher value recycling process could be proposed with advanced material separation techniques.

국내에서 발생되는 도시광산 즉 폐금속 자원으로부터 유가금속을 회수하는 방안에 대한 관심이 최근 급증하고 있어 현실적인 대안으로 주목받고 있다. 국내에서 폐기된 폐전기 전자제품의 통계자료로부터 국내에 축적된 각종 폐전기 전자제품의 규모를 산정하면 약 3.3억대에 9.6조원 규모의 유가금속이 존재하는 것으로 분석되었으며 이에 대한 효율적인 재활용 기술이 활성화 된다면 소재원료의 자급도를 개선하고 안정적으로 확보할 수 있는 기반을 마련할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
