  • 경제적 측면에서 보았을 때 '환경산업'이라는 개념과 분류 기준은 환경재화와 서비스에 대한 규정의 어려움과 견해 차이 등으로 인해서 국가별 혹은 기관별로 상이한 모습을 보이고 있으며 기초적인 경제적 효과 분석이 제대로 되지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 환경산업에 대한 경제 효과를 분석해 보기 위해서 통계청의 특수 산업 분류를 근간으로 하여 투입 산출표 내에서 환경산업을 분리해 이를 부문 통합하고, 한국은행에서 발표하고 있는 1995년과 1998년의 투입 산출표를 재구성하였다. 다음으로 투입 산출표에서 얻을 수 있는 계수와 정보를 통해서 국내 환경산업의 특성을 파악해 보고 이를 통해 환경산업의 경제적 파급 효과를 분석하여 보았다. 연구 결과 우리나라 환경산업은 전체 경제 규모에 있어서 비중 면에서는 작은 수준에 있지만 전 후방 연쇄 효과가 전체 산업에 대비해 중 상위권에 위치하고 있고 중간재적인 성격을 지닌 재화를 생산한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 가격파급 효과 부문에 있어서도 산업 대비 중 상위권의 모습을 보인다는 것을 미루어 볼 때 환경산업이 국민경제 전체에 있어서 산업간 파급 효과의 매개체 역할을 수행해 내고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • Emergy is a measure of the processes required to produce something expressed in units of the same energy form. Emergy based indices can provide insights into the thermodynamic efficiency of the process, the quality of its output, and the interaction between the process and its surrounding environment. However, in an industrial system, the inputs are mostly nonrenewable, renewable energy source is nearly zero, ultimate purpose is pursuit of profits in economic activity. In study, we present two indices based on emergy - EEE(Ecological Economic Efficiency) and ERI(Environmental Responsibility Index). The EEE is taken into account real value of product in market economy. The ERI is shown to be a function of the net yield of the economy, its ‘load’ on the environment and ecological economic efficiency. Manufacturing industry of Korea produced the 30% of total GDP in 2001. We applied these indices to manufacturing industry for environmental management and further sustainable industry. As a results, the highest ERI is 0.34 in recycling industries, the lowest ERI is 0.01 in coke, refined petroleum products which is dominated by ELR. The higher ERI, the more friendly to environment. The suggested indices help us understand relative contributions of various alternatives in company's production and consumption activity, and provide a tool of decision-making for the rearrangement of future industries. Furthermore, they contribute to environmental friendly operation and consumption.

  • This paper describes how industry has responded to the environmental challenge. Benefits include compliance with environmental legislation; genuine reductions to environmental impact; sustainable improvements to profitability in the face of increased competitive pressure. National and international Standards for environmental management offer security and direction for a company wishing to improve environmental performance and coupled with a waste minimisation strategy many financial and environmental benefits can be achieved. Introduction of new technical skills, techniques and worker understanding to aid motivation is an essential component of such a strategy. Monitoring and targeting has a key role to play in the establishment of improved environmental performance.

  • This study is aimed at providing an analysis on the re-training needs in for environmental sector as well as on the current status on the employment of technicians in the environmental industry. The questionnaires of 450 technicians employed in 993 environmental businesses are collected. The survey questions were composed mainly of current status on the employment of technicians in the environmental field, specialty and duty in the working place, the relations with a licence, the level of satisfactory to duties and intention to leave hls/her job, difficultles in the working coditions, experiences of training related environmental techniques during a recent year, and the needs of re-training in the environmental industry. The policies on custom-oriented retraining and technical education, on the curricula by sector, on the establishment of retraining.

  • Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between job stress and impaired fasting glycemia (IFG) of male workers in a manufacturing industry. Methods: Data were collected from 5,886 male workers in a manufacturing industry who participated in the medical examination from June 19 to August 14, 2020 through self-reported questionnaires. The general characteristics of the subjects, shift work, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and job stress were included. Job stress was measured using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) consisting of 8 items and 43 questions. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the IFG association with job stress. Results: Among the various factors that can cause job stress, only high job demand was associated with a risk of IFG (odds ratio, 1.43; 95% confidence interval, 1.13-1.82) especially in non-shift worker. For all other factors, no statistically significant results were obtained. Conclusions: In this study of male workers engaged in the Korean steel manufacturing industry, the 'job demand' item among job stress of non-shift worker was related to IFG.

  • The EU has introduced various environmental protection policies and regulations which are stricter than accepted international standards. WEEE, RoHS, and EuP directives in the Electrical and Electronic Industry could have a direct effect on our exports to EU countries. To gradually enlarge exports to the EU, it is necessary to have a precise understanding of the EU's environmental regulations and prepare the relevant countermeasures to adequately cope with them. Korean companies should formulate concrete plans to meet the EU's environmental regulations in those industry. In order to decrease the negative effects that environmental regulations of EU give to Korea, the corporations and the government should change their present passive environmental policy and carry out the environmental- friendly policy. If Korean companies can adequately meet the standards set by the environmental policies and regulations of the EU, it will greatly enhance the competitiveness of companies in this market.

  • Nowadays, climatic environment change has become a major issue in the world. This causes major emissions of carbon dioxide industries steel industry, thermal power industry, cement industry is essential in the reduction of carbon dioxide, which is based on total carbon dioxide emissions account for most of the construction industry in an effort to minimize the environmental load is needed. accordingly, through case studies, It can be induce the selection to minimize environmental load by comparing the output of quantitative energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions per constructional methods. As a result of this study, RC Structure was less environmental load than SC structure.

  • 본 논문에서는 DDA 환경상품 무역자유화 협상에 대비하여 세계 주요국과 우리나라의 환경산업 제품에 대한 무역구조를 분석하였다. OECD에서 제안한 161종의 환경상품 리스트를 기반으로 2002년부터 2011년까지 10년간 전 세계 환경상품의 무역 통계를 조사하였다. 환경산업의 세계 무역규모는 2002년 4,639억 달러에서 2011년 1조4,778억 달러로 3배 이상 증가하였다. 우리나라의 2011년 환경상품의 세계시장 점유율은 3.2%이며, 무역특화지수는 -0.128, 현시비교우위지수는 1.002이며 세계시장에서 일본과 수출경합도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서 우리나라의 환경상품의 국제경쟁력은 무역규모에 비해 국제경쟁력이 상대적으로 약한 것으로 조사되었다. 따라서 향후 지속될 DDA 환경상품 자유화 협상에서 우리나라는 환경상품의 유예기간 설정 등 단계별 무역자유화 추진과 국내 산업의 경쟁력 향상을 위해 노력해야 할 것이다.

  • K leather industry wastewater treatment plant(advanced treatment process) was selected to evaluate effluent quality and pollutants removal efficiencies. $BOD_5$ concentration of effluent was $3.95mg/{\ell}$ and its removal efficiency was 99.8%. Also, most of other pollutants removal efficiencies were over 90% as well. And 95% reliability of effluent concentration were $106.8mg/{\ell}$ of CODmn, $86mg/{\ell}$ of SS, $72.04mg/{\ell}$ of TN that is greater than the effluent limitation, $0.98mg/{\ell}$ of ABS, $1.8mg/{\ell}$ of n-Hexane, $9.7mg/{\ell}$ of $BOD_5$ and $0.11mg/{\ell}$ of Cr.
