For the improvement of air quality in the metropolitan area, Korea has enforced the air pollutant emission cap regulation from the 1st of July, 2007, and the companies that intend to install a new or an enlarged facility in the metropolitan area will be restricted. However, the current regulation on permission does not describe a standard of judgement distinctly. In this study, therefore, a method of permission on the installation of a new or an enlarged facility was developed by supplementing the law in force based on the foreign cases. To develop a specific permit regulation and procedure, the developed nations' cases such as US, Canada, EU were reviewed thoroughly. Also, an appropriate method was suggested to apply domestically for a new or an enlarged facility permit within the regulations of the metropolitan special law. The method consists of first, calculating the possible permit quantity from the difference between an estimated annual emission cap and the annual emission provided by the implementation plan in each region. Second, permitting a new or an enlarged facility construction within the difference of the emission between the regional emission cap and the implementation plan in 2014. Third, distributing emissions allowable to each performance year based on the regional emission cap and the implementation plan in 2014. Fourth, making use of the emission difference between the implementation plan and the performance result in each year. Considering the general domestic conditions, the convenience of the permit authority and permitted companies, the most reasonable method was to use the fourth. To enforce the suggested permit method in a more flexible way, parts of the related regulations need to be revised and continuous research and analysis on the results from the implemented system and on foreign cases is necessary to develop this method a suitable system for domestic conditions and to settle the air pollutant emission cap system.

The integrated environmental permit system is currently in operation online. It carries out various functions of postmanagement such as the submission of annual reports containing operations management data onto integrated management workplaces, the operation and management of emission facilities and prevention facilities, and the disclosure of information on the integrated permission. On the other hand, the integrated environmental permit system needs to perform various roles in order to stably manage and smoothly perform the permitting work. It is necessary to utilize this system to establish policies by using diverse operations management data onto integrated management workplaces collected in the integrated environmental permit system. This system can also play a role in improving the post-management system and user convenience after the permission review and approval processes. The integrated environmental permit system can be effectively used to set up the BAT-AEL because it collects all of the cross-media data and identifies the overall status of the workplace. In order to establish a post management system after the approval, it is necessary to provide performance management and performance evaluation functions as conditions of the permit after approval. In addition, a variety of support functions should be provided to enable the permission authority and the environmental expert examination agency to facilitate the review of permits. It will be necessary to provide an evaluation system and a proactive diagnostic function to determine whether permission conditions and permit emission standards will change in the future. Also, it is important to adopt an information exchange platform that can be used to collect the status data onto the workplaces; the platform can also be used as an information exchange site for technical working groups (TWG), and for collecting field experts' opinions.

본 연구는 수질오염물질에 대한 가상적 배출권거래시장을 상정하여 균형배출권가격을 도출함으로써 수질개선에 따른 편익을 추정하려고 시도하였다. 우리나라에서는 낙동강수계를 비롯하여 주요 수계에 수질오염물질 총량관리제도가 실시되고 있다. 사회적으로 바람직스러운 배출총량을 결정함으로써 국민과 정부는 암묵적으로 수질오염물질의 경제적 가치를 결정한 것과 같다고 할 수 있다. 각 지자체별로 수질오염물질 배출상의 제약으로 인하여 희생된 경제적 기회비용이 발생할 것이며 이 기회비용의 크기가 수질오염물질의 경제적 가치이기 때문이다. 이 가상적 배출권거래시장에서의 균형가격을 수질 총량제하의 수계전체의 배출총량과 지자체별 할당에 의하여 암묵적으로 결정된 수질오염물질 배출의 단위당 가치라고 해석할 수 있다. 배출량과 편익의 관계로부터 한계순편익함수를 도출하고 지자체별 배출허용총량을 이용하여 개별배출권 초과수요함수를 구성하여 균형배출권가격을 도출하였다. 추정 결과 배출권시장의 균형배출권가격이 1,409.3원/$kg{\cdot}BOD$으로 추산되었다. 이는 외국의 사례와 비교하여 적정한 수준이라 평가되며 이러한 배출권가격은 수질 오염물질의 단위당 경제적 가치를 산정하여 수질변화를 수반하는 사업의 B/C분석에 직접적으로 이용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The process of drug discovery and development requires substantial resources and time. The drug industry has tried to reduce costs by conducting appropriate animal studies together with molecular biological and genetic analyses. Basic science research has been limited to in vitro studies of cellular processes and ex vivo tissue examination using suitable animal models of disease. However, in the past two decades new technologies have been developed that permit the imaging of live animals using radiotracer emission, X-rays, magnetic resonance signals, fluorescence, and bioluminescence. The main objective of this review is to provide an overview of small animal molecular imaging, with a focus on nuclear imaging (single photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography). These technologies permit visualization of toxicodynamics as well as toxicity to specific organs by directly monitoring drug accumulation and assessing physiological and/or molecular alterations. Nuclear imaging technology has great potential for improving the efficiency of the drug development process.

This paper considers a supply chain consisting of a manufacturer under the cap-and-trade emissions regulation and a permit supplier. We study joint production quantity and investment in reducing permit production cost decisions for centralized and decentralized supply chains. We formulate two supply chain contracts with aims to coordinate the decentralized supply chain; wholesale price contract and cost-sharing contract. Under the cost-sharing contract, the manufacturer shares a part of the investment in reducing permit production cost and then is allowed to purchase emission permit at a lower price. We analytically find that the proposed cost-sharing contract with reasonable parameters can coordinate the supply chain whereas the wholesale price contract is not desirable to achieve the system-wide profit. Numerical example is followed to support the analysis.

When evaluating the extent of the impact of water pollutants on the surrounding area, we would like to present the target level (proposal) of the quality of the environment, which is the standard for evaluation. We propose the environmental quality target level for substances that need to be applied domestically by investigating overseas cases operating the integrated environmental management system and the implications of domestic environmental pollutant management. The appropriateness of the environmental quality target level reviewed in this study was determined using data from the water quality measuring network, and future improvement measures were proposed. We review the available methodologies for setting quality objectives for the environment. It proposed the environmental quality target level for 21 substances that have domestic water pollutant emission standards and do not have environmental standards, and proposed future improvement measures. If it is necessary to add quality target-level items of the environment in the future, it is believed that expansion will be possible based on the methodology presented in this study.

본 연구에서는 에너지산업 부문의 CER 발행가격의 적정 수준은 어느 수준인지를 배출권가격의 불확실성을 고려한 실물옵션 기법을 통하여 추정하였다. 분석결과 UNFCCC에서 2012년 12월부터 2021년 말까지 등록한 에너지산업 부문 CDM 사업의 손익분기점은 개별사업별로 CO2톤당 0.64-36.69유로로 나타났다. NPVw/o CER+ NPVCER≥0일 때 손익분기점에 도달하는 배출권가격은 평균 12.10유로이며, NPVw/o CER+ NPVCER ≥ 옵션가치일 때 손익분기점에 도달하는 배출권가격은 평균 12.63유로로 추정되었다. 한편, 사업의 불확실성을 경감하기 위해 실물옵션을 적용한 옵션가치는 톤당 1-5 유로 수준에서는 약 19%, 톤당 5-10유로 수준에서는 약 11%, 톤당 10-15유로 수준에서는 약 5%만큼의 불확실성 경감으로 인한 배출권가격의 상승효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 투자자, 사업시행자, 잠재적 의무감축기업으로 대표되는 온실가스 감축 사업 주체들이 본 연구 결과를 참고할 경우 그간 에너지부문에서 시행됐던 온실가스 감축 사업의 개별사업별 발행가격을 확인할 수 있어 사업투자 의사결정에 유용할 수 있다.

동 연구는 미국 캘리포니아주 San Joaquin Valley의 고정오염원들로부터 발생되는 ROG(Reactive Organic Gases) 배출량을 저감하기 위하여 명령통제방식(CAC)과 경제적 유인제도를 적용할 경우의 비용효과성을 비교 분석하였다. 경제적 유인제도로서는 UMPS(uniform marketable permit system)와 LMPS(localized marketable permit system) 배출권거래제도를 적용하였다. 분석결과 배출권거래제도(UMPS, LMPS)를 이용한 ROG 배출량 저감이 명령통제방식보다 비용이 적게 드는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, one-to-one permits trading이 허용되는 UMPS의 경우에는 일부 특정 지역에 대한 환경질이 악화되는 결과를 초래하는 경우가 발생하여, 궁극적으로 San Joaquin Valley의 ROG 배출량 저감을 위해서는 UMPS 방식의 배출권거래제도 도입이 보다 바람직한 것으로 나타났다.

The integrated permit system is applied to class 1 and 2 atmospheric and water pollutant discharge facilities in 19 sectors. The fertilizer sector should receive a permit for a period of four years, from 2019 to 2023. The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences between the Korean Best Available Techniques (BAT) reference document (K-BREF) and the European Union BAT reference document (EU-BREF) in terms of the process and emission characteristics of fertilizer manufacture. K-BREF is written by focusing on products, whereas EU-BREF is produced on focusing on manufacture process. There are five types of BATs(best available techniques economically achievable) in Korea. These BATs selected mainly to recover and reuse raw meterials and save energy. The number of BATs and BAT-AELs(BAT associated emission level) in K-BREF is smaller than that in EU-BREF. We suggest that BATs and those environmental management parameters in Korea need to further reflect the emission characteristics in the fertilizer sector.

본고는 산출물시장이 과점적이고 동질적 상품이 거래되어 기업들이 생산량 경쟁을 하고 배출권시장은 완전경쟁적일 경우, 기업이 지출하는 저감투자량의 적절성을 이론적으로 분석한다. 산출물시장이 완전경쟁적일 때와는 달리 저감투자는 직접적으로 배출비용을 줄이는 효과 이외에 다른 기업의 산출물을 줄이는 간접적 효과를 발생시킨다. 균형하에서의 저감투자량은 사회적으로 최적인 저감투자량에 비해 생산량 대비 과잉투자를 야기하여 투자배분을 왜곡한다. 본고는 또한 불완전경쟁시장이 배출권 거래제도하에서 발생시킬 수 있는 비효율성의 제반 요인들을 검토하고 정책적 시사점을 제시한다.
