  • 전 세계 화석 에너지의 사용량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 기존의 화석 에너지 사용 국가뿐만 아니라 개발도상국의 화석 에너지 사용량 또한 증대되면서 유한한 화석 에너지의 고갈에 대한 불안감은 커지고 있다. 또한 화석에너지로 인한 환경오염, 경제적 사회적 문제는 해결해야 할 과제로 남아있다. 태양광은 환경을 해치지 않는 청정에너지이지만, 태양광 발전소를 설치하는 과정에서 여러 문제가 발생한다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 수상 태양광 발전소가 대안으로 떠오르고 있다. 하지만 아직까지 수상 태양광 발전소에 대한 입지 분석이 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수상 태양광 발전소의 입지 조건을 지형 및 기후 인자를 이용한 계층분석법을 통해 결과를 분석하였다. 그리고 적합분류표에 따라 각각 인자들의 속성정보에 점수를 부여하고, 여기에 가중치를 곱한 뒤 점수를 시각화하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 경상북도 북부지역의 점수 분포가 남부지역보다 높게 나왔다. 특히 안동시의 안동호와 영양군의 저수지가 최적입지로 추출되었다. 낮은 점수가 나온 곳은 강, 하천의 중심부가 아닌 하천의 경계면이었다. 본 연구를 통해 더욱 정확한 수상 태양광 발전소 입지 분석이 될 것이라고 기대한다.

  • Nuclear energy plays an important role in world energy production by supplying 6% of the world's current total electricity production. However, 86% of the energy consumed worldwide to produce industrial process heat, to generate electricity and to power the transportation sector still originates in fossil fuels. To cope with dwindling fossil fuels and climate change, it is clear that a clean alternative energy that can replace fossil fuels in these sectors is urgently required. Clean hydrogen energy is one such alternative. Clean hydrogen can play an important role not only in synthetic fuel production but also through powering fuel cells in the anticipated hydrogen economy. With the introduction of the high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) that can produce nuclear heat up to $950^{\circ}C$ without greenhouse gas emissions, nuclear power is poised to broaden its mission beyond electricity generation to the provision of nuclear process heat and the massive production of hydrogen. In this paper, the features and potential of the HTGR as the energy source of the future are addressed. Perspectives on nuclear heat and hydrogen applications using the HTGR are discussed.

  • Research and development efforts to reduce $CO_2$ emission are in progress to cope with global warming. $CO_2$ emission from fossil fuel fired power plants is a major greenhouse gas source and the post-combustion $CO_2$ capture is considered as a short or medium term option to reduce $CO_2$ emissions. In this study, the application of the post-combustion $CO_2$ capture system, which is based on chemical absorption and stripping processes, to typical fossil fuel fired power plants was investigated. A coal fired plant and a natural gas fired combined cycle plant were selected. Performance of the MEA-based $CO_2$ capture system combined with power plants was analyzed and overall plant performance including the energy consumption of the $CO_2$ capture process was investigated.

  • In Korea, the cultivation area under the plastic greenhouse was 1,746 ha in 1975, and 36,656 ha in 1989, it shows that the greenhouse cultivation area was increased by 21 times during last 14 years. The greenhouse cultivation area of 90~93% has been kept warm with double layers of plastic film and thermal curtain knitted with rice straw, and the rest area of 7~10% has been heated by fossil fuel energy. The use of rice straw thermal curtain is inconvenient to put it on and off, on the other hand the use of fossil fuel heating system results in the increase of production cost. To solve these problems, at first the heating load and the storable solar energy in greenhouse during the winter season were predicted to design solar utilization system, secondly a solar thermal storage system filled with latent heat storage materials was developed in this study. And then finally the thermal performance of greenhouse-solar energy storage system was analyzed theoretically and experimentally.

  • Korea gets most of its housing energy from fossil fuel which can be mined only for 30 years. So the development of an alternative energy is very important. Solar and underground thermal energy are two of these alternatives but little study has been conducted on these. For use of underground energy, we need accurate data regarding underground temperature, but there are only 30 measuring points for underground temperature in the entire country. We need to have a method of predicting underground temperature precisely. In this study the underground temperature is measured at under 3m in Gumi, and these data are compared with predicted data for checking the accuracy of the predicting method.

  • The natural carbon cycle has been perturbed since the mid-19th century by anthropogenic CO$_2$emissions from fossil fuel combustion and deforestation due to population growth and industrialization. The current study simulated the global carbon cycle for the past 42 years using an eight-box carbon cycle model. The results showed that since the terrestrial biospheric carbon sink was roughly offset by the deforestation source, the fossil fuel emission source was partitioned between the atmospheric and oceanic sinks. However, the partitioning ratio between the atmosphere and the ocean exhibited a change, that is, the carbon accumulation rate was faster in the atmosphere than in the ocean, due to a decrease in the so-called ocean buffering capacity. It was found that the ocean buffering capacity to take up excess CO$_2$decreased by 50% in terms of the buffer factor over the past 42 years. Accordingly, these results indicate that if the current CO$_2$emission trend continues, the future rate of increase in the atmospheric CO$_2$concentration will accelerate.

  • 본 논문에서는 최근에 주목 받고 있는 물질인 이온성액체를 실험실 규모로 제조하여 회분식 기-액 흡수평형(VLE)장치를 이용하여 압력에 따른 이산화탄소 용해도 및 초기흡수속도를 상용 이온성액체인 $PF_6$와 비교분석 하였다. 반응온도 $40^{\circ}C$조건에서 운전하였으며, 이산화탄소 압력 0~40기압 범위에서 수행되었다. 실험결과 methyl기가 붙은 합성 이온성액체의 경우 초기흡수속도면에서 상용 이온성액체인 $PF_6$보다는 다소 낮은 수준이다.

  • The fossil fuel has been used as the main resource of national development. Through this process, many environmental problems have happened. For example, we depend 97% energy on import for national spending and the exhaustion of the fossil fuel is at an important issue nowadays. So more people are interested in renewable energy which is more environmental and never be gone. However, the supply doesn't go on smoothly because of some problems such as capital condition, the limitation of geographical features and low technology, etc. In conclusion I'd like to check some policies and support systems about renewable energy first, and then to find problems for adapting other area through the comparison in this thesis.
