While increased use of motor cycles in the recent years for various demands could worsen air quality, only few studies have been conducted on estimation of emission factors and characterization of emissions from motorcycle. In this study, emissions from selected six models of motorcycle based on largest market share and production rate were investigated. To investigate gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), total hydrocarbon (THC), nitrogen oxide ($NO_x$), elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC), total 124 motorcycles between 2003 and 2007 model year were tested with regulatory driving conditions, such as CVS-40 and CVS-47 mode. These motorcycles were further sub-categorized based on their displacement (< 50 cc, 50~150 cc, and $\geq$ 150 cc), type of stroke (2- and 4 strokes) and model year (2003~2005 and 2006~2007). Tested motorcycles with recent model year (2006~2007) exhibited less emissions of regulatory gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants compared to old model year (2003~2005). Chemical analysis showed that CO present in highest concentration followed by THC and $NO_x$ for all tested motorcycles. Interestingly, two strokes motorcycle produced higher THC emission but less CO and $NO_x$ than those of four strokes. For all types of displacement and stroke, emission factors (gram per kilometer) of THC and CO except $NO_x$ with recent model year (2006~2007) showed decreased trend compared to old model year (2003~2005). In addition to this, due to mixed combustion between gasoline fuel and lubricant, two strokes motorcycle showed OC > EC emission trend.

The electrochemical adsorption of the Ag ions from aqueous solution on pelletized activated carbon monolith was investigated over wide range of operation time. The adsorption capacities of pelletized activated carbon monolith are associated with their internal porosity and are related properties such as surface area, pore size distribution. The chemical industry generates wastewater that contains toxic matters like heavy metals in small concentrations so that their economic recovery is not feasible. But, the method using activated carbon monolith can be used to withdrawal of heavy metals in waste water. After the electrochemical treatment, the quantitative properties in Ag ion solutions are also examined by pH concentration and studied elemental analysis by ICP-Atomic Emission Spectrometer and Energy Disperse X-ray (EDX) spectra. It is consider that the pH is very important factor at the reason of water pollutant with increasing acidity in industrial field. The result of quantitative analysis using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometer of metal after electrochemical reaction in Ag ions solution depending on time are shown that the amount of Ag ions deposited was decreased with growth of Ag particles on the carbon surfaces as increasing electrochemically treated time. And, surface morphologies are investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to explain the changes in adsorption properties.

본 연구는 우리나라의 대나무림에 대한 탄소계정을 위하여 탄소배출계수 중 하나인 목재기본밀도를 도출하기 위하여 수행되어 졌다. 대나무는 전라남도와 경상남도에 주로 분포해 있으며, 계수 도출을 위한 표준목은 솜대, 왕대, 맹종죽 등 3수종별로 각각 101본씩을 선정하여 활용하였다. 목재기본밀도 도출은 KS F 2098 방법을 따랐다. 측정결과, 솜대의 목재기본밀도는 0.83 g/cm³, 왕대는 0.81 g/cm³, 맹종죽은 0.72 g/cm³로 각각 나타났다. 그렇지만, 우리나라는 대나무 분포 면적이 많지 않고, 맹종죽의 경우 일정 지역에 국한되어 생육하고 있다. 따라서 대나무에 적용할 수 있는 목재기본밀도는 하나로 통합하여 0.79 g/cm³로 확정하였다. 그리고 도출된 목재기본밀도에 대한 불확도를 평가한 결과, 1.61%로 낮은 불확도 값을 가져, 본 분석에서의 측정값에 대한 신뢰도를 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 이번에 개발한 목재기본밀도와 기존의 바이오매스확장계수, 뿌리함량비 등을 이용하여 대나무 표준목에 대한 탄소저장량을 계산하고, 이를 확장시켜 ha단위까지 계산해 보았다. 이번 연구로 대나무의 재적을 이용하여 목재기본밀도 등 탄소배출계수 적용으로 탄소저장 및 흡수량 계산이 가능하게 되었다. 본 결과가 우리나라 탄소중립 정책 및 산림관리 방향에 도움이 되기를 기대한다.

저탄소 녹색성장은 국내외적으로 중요한 정치적 이슈가 되고 있으며, 한국정부는 최근 저탄소 녹색성장을 위한 비젼을 발표하였다. 이런 관점에서 탄소배출 추정은 도시계획에 있어서 중요한 요소가 되고 있다. 탄소저감 계획을 수립하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 과거 40년 동안 진주시의 탄소배출 추정과 토지이용변화의 상호추이변화를 분석하였다. 토지적성평가 데이터베이스와 항공영상의 영상처리자료는 과거 40년간의 토지이용변화를 분석하는데 유효한 정보를 주었으며, 신주거지 개발에 의한 토지이용변화는 급격한 인구집중과 탄소배출증가를 가져왔다. 앞으로 저탄소 녹색성장을 위한 도시관리계획에 있어서 토지이용변화에 따른 탄소배출 증가를 계획수립 시 반드시 고려해야하며, 향 후 토지이용과 연료소비추정이 포함된 정확한 탄소배출 추정모델개발에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

We report a new fabrication process for carbon nanotube field emitters with high performance. The key of the fabrication process is trim-and-leveling the carbon nanotubes grown in trench structures by employing a planarization process, which leads to a uniform distance from the carbon nanotube tip to the electrode. In order to enable this processing, spin-on-glass liquid is applied over the CNTs grown in trench to have them stubborn adhesion among themselves as well as to the substrate. Thus fabricated emitters reveal an extremely stable emission and aging characteristics with a large current density of 40 ㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 4.5 V/$\mu\textrm{m}$. The field enhancement factor calculated from the F-N plot is $1.83${\times}$10^{5}$ $cm^{－1}$ , which is a very high value and indicates a superior quality of the emitter originating from the nature of open-tip and high stability of the carbon nanotubes obtained new process.

The world is moving towards a post-carbon society and needs clean and renewable energy for sustainable development. There are many methodological approaches which are helping this shift based on analyzed data about energy resources and which focus on limited types of energy including liquid fossil, solid fossil, gaseous fossil, and biomass (e.g. IPCC Guidelines, ISO 14064-1, WRI Protocol, etc.). We should also consider environmental impact (e.g. greenhouse gas emissions, water use, etc.) and the economic cost of the renewable energy to make a better decision. Recently, researchers have addressed the environmental impact of new technologies which include photovoltaics, wind turbines, hydroelectric power, and biofuel. In this work, we analyze the environmental impact with a carbon emission factor to present a correlation between $CO_2$ emission and the cost of energy resources standardized by the energy output. In addition, we reviewed Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as another methodology. Researchers who are studying energy systems have ignored the impacts of entire energy systems, e.g. the extraction and processing of fossil fuels. In power sector, the assessment should include extraction, processing, and transportation of fuels, building of power plants, production of electricity, and waste disposal. Therefore LCA could be more suitable tool for energy cost and environmental impact estimation.

Agriculture activities account for 58% of total anthropogenic emissions of nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) with global warming potential of 298 times as compared to carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) on molecule to molecule basis. Quantifying $N_2O$ from managed soil is essential to develop national inventories of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The objective of the study was to compare $N_2O$ emission from livestock compost applied arable land with that for fertilizer treatment. The study was conducted for two years by cultivating Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L.) in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do. Accumulated $N_2O$ emission during cultivation of Chinese cabbage after applying livestock compost was slightly greater than that for chemical fertilizer. Slightly greater $N_2O$ emission factor for livestock compost was observed than that for chemical fertilizer possibly due to lump application of livestock compost before crop cultivation compared with split application of chemical fertilizers and enhanced denitrification activity through increased carbon availability by organic matter in livestock compost.

The main purpose of this study was to characterize the air pollutants emission factors in electric power plant (EPP) using fossil fuels. The electric power plant is a major air pollution source, thus knowing the emission characteristics of electric power plant is very important to develop a control strategy. The major air pollutants of concern from EPP slacks are particulate matter (PM), sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO) and heavy metals. Throughout the study, the following results are estimated - PM : 8.671E-05 ∼ 8.724E+01 PM emission (kg) per fuel burned (ton) - SOx : 4.149E-04∼7.877E+01 SOx emission (kg) per fuel burned (ton) - NOx 1.578E-02∼9.857E+00 NOx emission (kg) per fuel burned (ton) - CO : 3.800E-04∼1.291E+00 CO emission (kg) per fuel burned (ton) - Hg : 1.220E+01∼3.108E+02 Hg emission (mg) per fuel burned(ton) From the statistical analysis by Wilcoxon signed ranks test between the emission factors of ours and U.S. EPA's, we can yielded that : p 〉0.05.
