The thermal behavior of $NiFe_2O_4$ prepared by a solid-state reaction was investigated for $H_2$ generation by the thermochemical cycle. The reduction of $NiFe_2O_4$ started from $800^{\circ}C$, and the weight loss was 0.2-0.3 wt% up to $1000^{\circ}C$. In the $H_2O$ decomposition reaction, $H_2$ was generated by oxidation of reduced $NiFe_2O_4$. The crystal structure of $NiFe_2O_4$ maintained during the redox reaction of 5 cycles. From this observation, the lattice oxygen in $NiFe_2O_4$ is released without the structural change during the thermal reduction and oxygen deficient $NiFe_2O_4$ can be restored to the spinel structure of $NiFe_2O_4$.

Taking sample processes from the combined heat and power plant in Busan Fashion Color Industry Complex, the characteristics and amounts of greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions were analysed and calculated, respectively. Based on the results, environmental assessment was evaluated for recent 3 years. The amounts of GHG emissions from 2011 to 2013 were estimated at 182,750, 184,384 and 190,250 $Ton.CO_2eq/year$, respectively. GHG emissions from stationary combustion sources were found to be more than 99 % of the total emissions. Also, the overall eco-efficiency indicator for environmental assessment was more than 1, suggesting that these results would be beneficial for GHG emissions allowance allocations.

Hydrogen energy applications have recognized clean materials and high energy carrier. Accordingly, Hydrogen energy applies for fuel cell by Mg and Mg-based materials. Mg and Mg-based materials are lightweight and low cost materials with high hydrogen storage capacity. However, commercial applications of the Mg hydride are currently hinder by its high absorption/desorption temperature, and very slow reaction kinetics. Therefore one of the most methods to improve kinetics focused on addition transition metal oxide. Addition to transition metal oxide in $MgH_x$ powder produce $MgH_x$-metal oxide composition by mechanical alloy and it analyze XRD, EDS, TG/DSC, SEM, and PCT. This report considers kinetics by transition metal oxide rate and Hydrogen pressure. In this research, we can see behavior of hydriding/dehydriding profiles by addition catalyst (transition metal oxide). Results of PCI make a excellent showing $MgH_x$-5wt.% Sc2O3 at 623K, $MgH_x$-10wt.% $Sc_2O_3$ at 573K.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from dye wastewater treatment processes were estimated by analysing their mass and energy balances, which were then used as baseline information for environmental assessment. The total GHG emissions from dye wastewater treatment plants were divided into direct emissions from the treatment processes and indirect ones from electricity usage. The amounts of $CO_2$, $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ emissions were calculated according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Clime Change (IPCC) guideline for the GHG target management system. For 3 years between 2011 and 2013, direct and indirect emissions were on average 8,742.7 and 7,892.0 Ton.$CO_2eq/year$, respectively, with the former exhibiting 52.6 %. Also, compared to 2012, in 2013, the eco-efficiency indicator by the GHG emissions was found to be more than 1, suggesting that environmental quality was effectively improved.

In this paper, an environmental assessment was carried out on the whole process of industrial business activities to establish a basic plan for climate change mitigation and energy independency. The whole process was divided into each discharge process in terms of water, air, solid waste, green house gases and refractory organic compounds. The flowcharts and basic unit of process were analysed for three years (2008-2010), being utilized as basic information for the life cycle assessment. It was found that the unit loading for the whole process significantly depends on changes in the operation rate change and highly concentrated wastewater inflow. About 35% of solid waste production was reduced by improving the incineration method with co-combustion in coal boiler, generating about 57% of electricity used for the whole process, and consequently reducing the energy costs. As the eco-efficiency index was found to be more than 1, compared to the previous years, it can be said that improvement in general has taken place.

The Korean electric power supply plan was prepared by greatly enhancing the environmental and safety with considering the economical efficiency of the electric equipment, the impact on the environment and the public safety. As a result, the fossil energy-based power generation sector is accelerating the paradigm shift to eco-friendly energy such as solar power and wind. Also the solar power industry is expected to grow into a super large-sized industry by converging the energy storage and electric vehicle industry. Generally, a levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is used to calculate the power generation cost for different generation power generation efficiency, operating cost, and life span. In this paper, we have studied the future research and development direction of photovoltaic technology development for the era of massive utilization of photovoltaic solar power, and have studied the LCOE of major countries including China, USA, Germany, Japan and Korea. Finally we have reviewed USA and Japan research programs to reduce the LCOE.

열중량분석기를 이용하여 이산화탄소 분위기에서 알칼리계 염류가 에코(Eco)탄의 가스화 반응에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. $750{\sim}900^{\circ}C$에서 탄산칼륨, 탄산나트륨, 탄산칼슘, 백운석(Dolomite) 7 wt%의 알칼리염을 첨가한 것과 원탄을 이용하여 실험을 진행하였다. $850^{\circ}C$에서의 가스화 결과, 이산화탄소의 농도가 증가할수록 반응속도가 증가하는 경향을 관찰하였다. 그러나 70% 이상의 농도에서는 반응속도의 증가량이 크게 증가하지 않음을 관찰하였다. 가스화 반응속도는 7 wt% 탄산나트륨 > 7 wt% 탄산칼륨 > 원탄> 7 wt% 백운석 > 7 wt% 탄산칼슘 순으로 나타났다. $700^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$, $850^{\circ}C$ 그리고 $900^{\circ}C$의 등온, 상압조건에서 가스화 실험 결과, 온도가 증가할수록 반응속도가 증가함을 관찰하였다. 차(char)-이산화탄소 가스화 반응의 기-고체 모델은 volumetric reaction model (VRM)이 탄소 전환율 거동을 가장 잘 묘사했다. 이를 이용하여 얻은 탄산나트륨의 활성화 에너지는 83 kJ/mol로 가장 낮게 얻어졌다.

Mg and Ma-based alloys are promising hydrogen storage materials for renewable clean energy applications. It has high hydrogen storage capacity (7.6wt.%), lightweight and low economical materials. However, commercial applications of the Mg hydride are currently hindered by its high operating temperature, and very slow reaction kinetics. In this work, we are aimed at studying the hydrogenation properties of the $MgH_x-V_2O_5$ composite prepared by hydrogen induced mechanical alloying. The absorption capacity of the sample is found to be about 4.7wt.% at 623K under 3 MPa $H_2$ pressure. The absorption characteristics observed have been compared with prepared $MgH_x$.
