The utilization of a variety of hazard chemicals bears risks to human health and ecosystem. The increasing usage of various chemicals indicates the greater emission of those chemicals to water system, and the subsequent deterioration of water quality. Water system is vulnerable to many pollutants, however, there are limitations of managing a range of hazard chemicals based on insufficient legal foundations. Therefore it is needed to select hazard chemicals that can be potentially discharged into water system, and subsequently to classify a wide range of existing chemicals for better management of those chemicals. In this study, the 259 candidate chemicals of concern were selected from the lists of the toxic released inventory chemicals (148), hazard concern candidate chemicals (106), and wastewater effluent standard candidate chemicals (116). We suggested the category 1, 2, 3 and 4 of hazard chemicals potentially discharged into water system. The assessment factors considered for the classification were hazard potential, persistence and emission to water body. This work was conducted as a part of the project entitled 'Development of integrated methodology for evaluation of water environment', and the results were used to develop the monitoring lists of hazard chemicals in four major rivers in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to validate the environmental performance of the 'eco-friendly lightweight form' in the construction process. Unlike existing euro form and aluminum form, the proposed form does not require form oil during the process of concrete casting and is lightweight because it is made of engineering plastic. Therefore, eco-friendly lightweight form will reduce the $CO_2$ emissions in the construction process. To verify the hypothesis, the study compared existing forms and eco-friendly light weight form's $CO_2$ emissions in each stage in construction process when using 1,000 forms and 100 times from the LCI(Life Cycle Inventory) data. The total $CO_2$ emissions of the eco-friendly light weight form were 30,487kg $CO_2$, which equated to about 58% and 20% less emissions than the euroform and aluminum form. The result of the study verified that the eco-friendly lightweight form was effectively reduced $CO_2$ emission in the construction process.

동아시아 지역은 최근 인구급증과 경제성장으로 인해 화석연료의 사용이 증가함에 따라 이로 인한 대기오염물질 배출이 증가하여 대기질이 점차 악화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 OMI (Ozone Monitoring Instrument) 위성 자료와 국가 대기오염물질 배출량 자료(National Emission Inventory)를 활용하여 동아시아의 대기현황 및 우리나라의 대기질에 국내외 배출량이 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 미래 배출량을 추정하였다. 2005년부터 2015년까지 동아시아의 NO₂, SO₂ 농도를 분석한 결과, 두 물질 모두 NEC (North East China), SEC(South East China), SMA (Seoul Metropolitan Area) 순으로 높았다. SO₂는 우리나라와 중국의 편차가 크게 나타나NEC 지역은 SMA보다 1.63배 높았다. 농도비와 배출비 분석을 통해 국외 배출원이 우리나라 대기환경에 미치는 영향을 간접적으로 파악할 수 있었는데, NO₂/SO₂ 농도비는 우리나라와 중국 모두 2013년에 가장 높았고, SMA의 NO_x/SO_x 배출비는 2013년 이후 22% 이상 증가했다. 국내 배출량은 지속적으로 감소했으나 농도-배출량 비율(NO₂/NO_x, SO₂/SO_x)은 점차 증가하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이는 곧 국내 배출량 외에 다른 요인(국외 배출원, 체류시간 변화 등)이 우리나라 수도권의 대기질에 영향을 주고 있다는 것으로 해석된다. SMA의 미래 배출량은 2025년에 NO_x, SO_x가 각각 296.2, 39.0 kton, 2035년에는 284.4, 33.8 kton 만큼 배출될 것으로 예측되었다. 본 연구에서는 공간적 제약을 받지 않는 위성자료의 장점을 이용하여 농도와 배출량 사이의 유의미한 결과를 도출하였으며, 이 연구에서 사용된 위성관측 농도와 배출량 간의 상호비교 분석방법론과 GEMS(Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer) 위성 산출물을 활용하여, 향후 국내 대기질 영향요인을 파악하기 위한 국외 발 대기오염물질 기여도 분석과 배출 인벤토리 보완을 위한 기초 자료를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

To estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, the inventory of rice cultivation at the farming without agricultural chemicals was established from farmers in Gunsan, Jeonbuk province in 2011~2012. The objectives of this study were to calculate carbon footprint and analyse the major factor of GHGs. To do this, we carried out a sensitivity analysis using the analyzed main factors of GHGs and estimated the mitigation potential of GHGs. Also we suggested agricultural methods to reduce GHGs that can be appled by farmers at this region. At the farming system without agricultural chemicals, carbon footprint of rice production unit of 1 kg was 2.15 kg $CO_2.-eq.kg^{-1}$. Although the amount of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) emission was the largest among GHGs, methane ($CH_4$) emission had the highest contribution to carbon footprint on rice production system when it was converted to carbon dioxide equivalent ($CO_2-eq.$) multiplied by the global warming potential (GWP). Main source of $CO_2$ emission in the rice farming system without agricultural chemicals was combustion of fossil fuels used by agricultural machinery. Most of the $CH_4$ was emitted during rice cultivation practice and its major emission factor was flooded paddy field in anaerobic condition. Also, most of the $N_2O$ was emitted from rice cultivation process. Major sources of the $N_2O$ emission was application of fertilizer such as compound fertilizer. As a result of sensitivity analysis in energy consumption, diesel had the highest sensitivity among the energy inputs. With the reduction of diesel consumption by 10%, it was estimated that $CO_2$ potential reduction was about 2.0%. With reducing application rate of compound fertilizer by 10%, the potential reduction was calculated that $CO_2$ and $N_2O$ could be reduced by 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. At the condition of 10% reduction of silicate and compost, $CO_2$ and $CH_4$ could be reduced by 1.5% and 1.6%, respectively. With 8 days more drainage than the ordinary practice, $CH_4$ emission could be reduced by about 4.5%. Drainage and diesel consumption were the main sources having the largest effect on the GHG reduction at the farming system without agricultural chemicals. Based on the above results, we suggest that no-tillage and midsummer drainage could be a method to decrease GHG emissions from rice production system.

국가 온실가스 인벤토리를 Tier 2 이상의 수준으로 향상시키기 위해서는 IPCC 기본값 대신 국가 고유의 배출계수가 개발 및 이용되어야 한다. 국가 고유 배출계수는 에너지원 종류, 에너지 공정, 시간 추세에 따라 달라지기 때문에, 각 에너지원별 특성값을 파악하는 것은 정확한 인벤토리 구축에 중요한 부분을 차지한다. 국내 석유계 에너지원의 물성은 시간의 경과에 따라 큰 변화는 없었으며, 국내에서 고시되고 있는 에너지원별 열량환산기준 상의 석유계 에너지원에 대한 열량 및 탄소배출계수를 2013년과 2016년에 실제 시료를 수집하여 발열량, 탄소함량 및 탄소배출계수를 산정한 결과값과의 비교분석에서는 대체적으로 일정한 값을 유지하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 석유계 에너지원별로 산출된 순발열량과 탄소배출계수는 2006 IPCC Guideline에 나타낸 값들과 비교하였으며, 대부분의 에너지원이 2006 IPCC G/L의 기본값 및 상한, 하한 범위내의 값을 나타내었다.

The university is one of the main energy consumption facilities and thereby releases a large amount of greenhouse gas (GHG). Accordingly, efforts for reducing energy consumption and GHG have been established in many local as well as international universities. However, it has been limited to energy consumption and GHG, and has not included air pollution (AP). Therefore, we estimated GHG and AP integrated emissions from the energy consumed by Seoul National University of Science and Technology during the years between 2010 and 2012. In addition, the effect of alternative energy use scenario was analysed. We estimated GHG using IPCC guideline and Guidelines for Local Government Greenhouse Inventories, and AP using APEMEP/EEA Emission Inventory Guidebook 2013 and Air Pollutants Calculation Manual. The estimated annual average GHG emission was $11,420tonCO_{2eq}$, of which 27% was direct emissions from fuel combustion sectors, including stationary and mobile source, and the remaining 73% was indirect emissions from purchased electricity and purchased water supply. The estimated annual average AP emission was 7,757 kgAP, of which the total amount was from direct emissions only. The annual GHG emissions from city gas and purchased electricity usage per unit area ($m^2$) of the university buildings were estimated as $15.4kgCO_{2eq}/m^2$ and $42.4tonCO_{2eq}/m^2$ and those per person enrolled in the university were $210kgCO_{2eq}$/capita and $577kgCO_{2eq}$/capita. Alternative energy use scenarios revealed that the use of all alternative energy sources including solar energy, electric car and rain water reuse applicable to the university could reduce as much as 9.4% of the annual GHG and 34% of AP integrated emissions, saving approximately 400 million won per year, corresponding to 14% of the university energy budget.

본 연구는 환경쿠즈네츠 곡선 가설이 제시하는 환경오염물질의 배출량이 증가하다가 일정 소득 이상이 되면 감소하는 현상에 대해, 그 원인을 미시적인 변수인 인식수준과 연관 지어 설명하는데 목적이 있다. 인식수준은 오염물질의 영향이 지역적(이산화황)이냐 아니면 지구적(이산화탄소)이냐에 따라, 다르게 형성되며, 이에 따라 배출량 변화에 미치는 영향도 상이하게 나타날 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이를 실증적으로 살펴보면, 오염물질 영향과 인식수준 간에 발생하는 상이한 반응 작용을 간과한 경우, 환경오염물질 배출량이 증가하다가 감소하는 전환점이 과소 혹은 과대 추정될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이와 더불어 오염물질의 영향이 지역적이냐 지구적이냐에 따라, 인식수준에 미치는 영향에 차이가 발생하여, 지역적 오염물질이 글로벌 오염물질에 비해 더 낮은 소득 수준에서 배출량이 증가에서 감소로 전환되는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 도출할 수 있는 정책적 시사점은, 지역적 오염물질에 비해 글로벌 오염물질인 이산화탄소의 저감을 위해서는, 교육과 홍보 등 정부의 적극적 노력이 요구되며, 규제 및 저탄소 기술 개발과 동일한 수준의 국민 의식제고를 위한 노력과 자원 투자가 필요하다는 점이다.

We utilize the CAMx (Comprehensive Air Quality Model with eXtensions) system and the PSAT (Particulate Source Apportionment Technology) diagnostic tool to determine the $PM_{2.5}$ concentration and to perform its source apportionment in the southeastern region of South Korea. For a year-long simulation, eight local authorities in the region such as Pohang, Daegu, Gyeongju, Ulsan, Busan-Gimhae, Gosung-Changwon, Hadong, and all remaining areas in Gyeongsangnam-do, are selected as source areas based on the emission rates of $NO_x$, $SO_x$, VOC, and primary PM in CAPSS (Clean Air Policy Support System) 2013 emissions inventory. The CAMx-PSAT simulation shows that Pohang has the highest $PM_{2.5}$ self-contribution rate (25%), followed by Hadong (15%) and Busan-Gimhae (14%). With the exception of Pohang, which has intense fugitive dust emissions, other authorities are strongly affected by emissions from their neighboring areas. This may be measured as much as 1 to 2 times higher than that of the self-contribution rate. Based on these estimations, we conclude that the efficiency of emission reduction measures to mitigate $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in the southeastern region of South Korea can be maximized when the efforts of local or regional emission controls are combined with those from neighboring regions. A comprehensive control policy planning based on the collaboration between neighboring jurisdictional boundaries is required.
