금속화재는 나트륨(Na), 리튬(Li) 등과 같은 가연성 금속이 연소하는 화재이다. 일반적인 물계, 가스계 소화약제에는 적응성이 없으며 금속화재용 소화약제 또는 건조사로 화재를 진화할 수 있다. 위험물안전관리법상 가연성 금속에 속하는 2류 및 3류 위험물 화재가 최근 5년간 104건이 발생했으며, 가연성 금속을 사용하는 연료전지, 반도체 산업의 발전으로 화재 건수는 더욱 증가할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 하지만 국내에는 금속화재와 관련된 법적 기준이 마련되어 있지 않아 금속화재용 소화약제 및 소화기 개발은 물론 화재 예방 및 대응 시스템 구축이 이루어지지 않고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 금속화재의 위험성을 감소시킬 수 있는 방안을 마련하기 위해 국내외 관련 법령 분석 및 금속화재 사례 11건을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 금속화재의 위험성을 감소를 위해 관련 법령 마련에 필요한 요소를 도출하였으며 금속화재 발생 시 소화약제로 사용되고 있는 건조사의 관리 및 지원방안을 제시하였다. 또한, 금속화재의 예방 및 대응에 필요한 안전교육 및 시설 관리 방안을 제시하였다.

This study conducted a measurement method of high temeprature conditions using infrared termography. All objects emit infrared light, and this emissivity has a significant impact on the temperature measurements of infrared thermal imaging (IR) cameras. In order to measure the temperature more accurately with the IR camera, correction equations were derived by measuring the emissivity according to the temperature change of combustible metals in a high-temperature environment. Two combustible metals, Mg and Al, were used to measure emissivity with changing temperature. Each metal was heated, the emissivity was measured by comparing the temperature with IR camera and thermocouples so that the correlation between temperature and emissivity could be anslyzed. As a result of the experiment, the emissivity of the metals increases as the temperature increased. This can be interpreted as a result of increased radiation emission as the thermal movement of internal metal molecules increased.

In this paper, catalytic combustible gas sensor was fabricated and tested under flammable gases such as CH$_4$and $C_4$H$_{10}$by using Pt coil as a heater and/or temperature sensing element. Fine $Al_2$O$_3$powder was used for a bead and Pt, Pd noble metal powder for a catalyst. Resistance variation of Pt wire was traced by the changes of the gas concentrations in a chamber. Output voltage was then monitored to obtain the gas concentration from the resistance variation. In this experiment, MgO was used to protect cracks in the based and TiO$_2$to increase the sensitivity of the sensors. Water glass was also added to enhance the selectivity to the combustible gases.s.

This study was carried out to evaluate the Physicochemical characteristics of mined waste(separated waste and soil) and to predict environmental effect of an old landfill site located at north of Seoul. Municipal solid waster(MSW) had been disposed of at the old landfill site used in this study for about 2 years(1990-1992). The old landfill site selected for this study had accepted mainly municipal solid waste. The landfill-mined waste contained separated waste (40.9%) and soil(59.1%) by wet weight basis. The separated waste consisted of combustible(91.0%) and non-combustible(9.0%). The combustible waste was mainly non-biodegradable plastics. The low heating value of the separated combustible waste, which is calculated by Dulong's equation, was as high as 3,470kcal/kg. According to the Korean Extraction Procedure, separated waste and soil were proved to be not hazardous. The total content of heavy metal in the separated waste and soil met standard of California State, USA. Therefore the separated waste may be relandfilled at a sanitary landfill site and/or burned up at an incinerator, and the separated old soil may be used ad landfill cover-soil at a sanitary landfill site. Water quality of two streams was grade IV, of which water could be used as industrial and agricultural water. The streams near the landfill site might not be contaminated by leachate from the old landfill site. It was estimated that organic matter in the old landfill site would not be actively biodegraded within a short period of time.

Most titanium alloy waste with cutting oil was discarded without recycling process so that it can be caused by metal and oil fires. However, there is no fire management system and studies on the titanium or titanium alloy waste in spite of high fire risk. The purpose of this experimental study is to identify the fire risk of the titanium alloy waste with cutting oil. We collected the 120g waste which was made in the biomedical titanium alloy cutting process. The waste was burned and conducted thermal image analysis with infrared camera. The experimental results which illustrated the process, characteristics, and trends of fire are presented. Firstly, the cutting oil was burned and partially the titanium alloy waste was burned. The maximum temperature of the fire was more than $650^{\circ}C$ in some specific spots. These results means when a lot of titanium alloy waste with cutting oil was ignited, this fire could connect the titanium fire. In other words, the fire has a flammable liquid fire and combustible metal fire at the same time. The experimental study could be used fire prevention, response, and investigation of the titanium alloy waste.

This study analyzed solid wastes generated from a school. The emission potential of hazardous pollutants generated from incineration of the school solid wastes (SSWs) was analyzed. Components of the SSWs were identified and the SSWs were classified into combustible and non-combustible wasts. The combustible wastes consisted of papers of 56.5^ plastics of 30.2% woods of 7.1% and fibers of 6.1% based on weight of the wastes. The moisture content and the ash content of the combustible wastes were 18~20% and 11~13% respectively. The combustible wastes of the SSWs were incinerated by using a small-scale incinerator. Fly and bottom ashes and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were collected from the incineration. Also the metal leaching experiments on the fly and bottom ashes were performed, In analysis of metals leached from the ashes the total amounts of metals leached in the acid solution (pH=3) were much greater than those in the neutral solution (pH=5.8~6.2) For the same amounts of the fly and bottom ashes the total amounts of metals leached from the fly ashes were much greater than those from the bottom ashes. The VOCs produced from incineration of the SSWs consisted of aromatics of 42.1% aliphatic alkenes of 26.3% oxidized forms of 17.3% and aliphatic alkanes of 14.3% In addition the considerable amounts of hazardous air pollutants (e.g benzene chloro-benzene and chloro-alkanes) and compounds (e. g, aliphatic alkenes) with high potential of ozone or photochemical smog formation were identified from the incineration experiment of the SSWs.

현행 "건설폐기물의 재활용 촉진에 관한 법률" 시행령 별표1에서는 다양한 성상으로 배출되는 건설폐기물의 종류를 17가지로 구분하고 이중 제17호의 혼합폐기물은 건설폐토석을 제외한 나머지 15가지 성상의 건설폐기물중 둘 이상의 건설폐기물이 혼합된 것으로 정의하고 있다. 이중 폐콘크리트, 폐아스콘과 같은 건설폐재류는 대부분이 순환골재와 같이 재활용되고 있으며 폐금속과 같은 유가성 자재류는 대부분 분리 판매되어 2차 제품 제조등에 활용되고 있다. 그러나 폐목재, 폐합성수지, 폐섬유 등과 같은 가연성 폐기물의 경우 발열량이 높고 인체에 해로운 중금속 함유량이 적어 RDF나 RPF와 같은 에너지 연료로 활용이 가능하지만 상당량이 혼합폐기물 형태로 배출되어 단순 소각 및 매립되고 있는 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 단순하게 외관상의 분류만을 고려하여 설정한 현행 "건폐법"과는 달리 최초 발생단계에서부터 최종처리까지 건설폐기물의 흐름을 보다 효율적으로 제어할 수 있도록 건설폐기물의 분류를 크게 가연성, 불연성, 가연성 불연성 혼합, 기타 등으로 분류하였다. 가연성 폐기물의 경우 기존의 소각 폐기물을 중심으로 폐목재, 폐섬유 등 기존의 소각 폐기물을 중심으로 분류를 하고 불연성은 재활용이 원활한 건설폐재류와 기타로 구분, 혼합건설폐기물은 발생 자체부터 서로 다른 물질이 결합되어 있어 분리 자체가 어려운 폐기물을 대상으로 하였다. 또한 이상에서 폐기물은 지정폐기물을 제외하고 모든 기타 폐기물로 분류하도록 하였으며 기본적으로 건설현장에서 발생하는 폐기물은 1차적으로 가연성, 불연성, 혼합폐기물로 분류하여 배출하는 시스템이 되도록 폐기물의 분류를 실시하였다.

Magnesium powder has been widely used in various industries because it is light weight and extremely high mechanical strength including aeronautics and chemicals. However, magnesium, as a combustible metal, poses serious safety issues such as fires and explosions if it is not managed properly. Especially, magnesium's max adiabatic flame temperature is 3,340℃ and it is impossible to extinguish it by using water, CO2 and Halonagents. The aim of this study is to identify the combustion characteristics of magnesium powder. We carried out a combustion experiment, using 1 kg of magnesium (purity > 99 %, particle < 150 ㎛). The features of the magnesium burning process were scrutinized using infrared thermal image analysis. Also, a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) were used employed to analyze particulate composites and properties. It concludes the significant tendency of magnesium fire and light, combustion carbide's particle characteristics. This study contributes to make better prevention and response manners to magnesium fires, as well as fire investigation measures.
