The radioactive Carbon, C-14, although present in small amount, emits a high energy(up to 0.156MeV) $\beta$ ray and has extremely long half-life(5730years). So special monitoring and management on its generation and discharge is inevitable. A PHWR, due to its own specific designs generates about six times as much C-14 as a PWR does and over 90% of the discharged C-14 comes from the Moderator system and discharged in to the environment through the process of periodic purging of the moderator cover gas system. The present study focussed on the development of effective C-14 scrubber and after production of a test facility and experiments using it, we found that our test facility is very efficient in $CO_2$ removal.

A material database has been developed for VOCs and formaldehyde emitted from building materials in this study. New classification system has been made by correlating the classification methods used in Korean Air Cleaning and Environmental Protection Agency. The developed databases include emission rates of TVOC, 5VOC and formaldehyde emitted from each building material. In addition, the databases can be used as an input variable to estimate indoor air quality (IAQ) using computer simulation since they also contain chemical component and general imformation. Box plot was used to do statistical analysis for emission rates of formaldehyde and TVOCs from different types of building materials. Also we confirmed the building materials worsening IAQ by categorizing the emission characteristic of different types of pollutants.

도시화가 진행될수록 인구 집중과 고층 건물의 점유 증가를 초래하고 이로 인해 도심내 공장의 증가, 자동차의 폐열량 증가, 겨울철 연료와 여름철 냉방에 의한 에너지 사용량이 증가된다. 이때 방출된 열원으로 인해 인공열 배출량이 커지게 된다. 단위면적에 대해 방출되는 열플럭스가 도시마다 큰 차이를 보이는데(Landsberg, 1981) 시드니 외곽부에 비해 도심내의 연간 에너지 사용량이 360배에 달한다는 것을 보였다. (중략)

최근 동아시아 지역은 높은 인구 밀도와 급격한 에너지 소비 증가로 다량의 대기오염물질들을 방출하고 있다. 특히 우리나라와 인접한 중국은 급속한 공업화로 많은 양의 대기오염물질을 방출하는 것으로 알려지고 있고, 중국의 동부 공업지대에서 발생된 다량의 아황산 가스는 편서풍을 타고 장거리 이동되어 한반도 지역 강우의 산성화를 급속히 심화시킬 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 주변 국가의 오염 영향을 파악하기 위해서는 자체 오염원이 없는 청정지역에서 그 농도를 측정해야 한다. (중략)

위성 및 발사체 등 지상 및 우주에서 운용되는 시스템은 발사 및 궤도 내 운용환경에서의 다양한 전자파환경에 노출되며 이를 모사하는 전자파환경시험을 전자파챔버에서 수행하게 된다. 전자파챔버에서의 전자파환경시험은 크게 방출시험과 내성시험으로 구분된다. 그 중 복사성 내성시험은 안테나를 통해 방출되는 전기장 에너지를 시험 대상 유니트 또는 시스템에 복사함으로서 발생되는 시험품의 정상동작 여부를 판단하는 시험이다. 이 때, 안테나로부터 복사되는 전기장의 세기는 주파수 및 안테나 타입에 따라 상이한 형상을 가지므로 시험품에 복사되는 전기장 에너지 또한 그에 따른 형상을 가지게 된다. 이에 따라 전자파챔버에서 복사성 내성 시험을 수행할 때 주파수 및 안테나 타입에 따른 필드 균일성 패턴을 측정하고 안테나 빔 중심과 그 주변에서 발생되는 전기장 세기를 정량적으로 평가함으로써 시험품에 대한 복사성 내성시험을 수행함에 있어 시험품 영역에 따른 내성특성을 확인할 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문에서는 한국항공우주연구원 전자파챔버에서 사용하는 복사성 내성 시험용 안테나에 대해 시스템 및 유니트 시험영역에서 필드 균일성 시험을 수행함으로서 위성 또는 발사체 시스템 및 유닛에 복사되는 전기장의 분포 특성을 분석하였다.

Methodologies of NEWTRIT model, NRC model and AIRDOS-EPA model, which are off-site dose assessment models for regulatory compliance from routine releases of tritium into the environment, were investigated. Using the domestic data, if available, the predictive results of the models were compared. Among them, recently developed NEWTRIT model considers only doses from organically bounded tritium (OBT) due to environmental releases of tritiated water (HTO) . A total dose from all exposure pathways predicted from AIRDOS-EPA model was 1.03 and 2.46 times higher than that from NEWTRIT model and NRC model, respectively. From above result, readers should not have an understanding that a predictive dose from NRC model may be underestimated compared with a realistic dose. It is because of that both mathematical models and corresponding parameter values for regulatory compliance are based on the conservative assumptions. For a dose by food consumption predicted from NEWTRIT model, the contribution of OBT was nearly equivalent to that of HTO due to relatively high consumption of grains in Korean. Although a total dose predicted from NEWTRIT model is similar to that from AIRDOS-EPA model, NEIIfTRIT model may be have a meaning in the understanding of phenomena for the behavior of HTO released into the environment.
