대규모 산업 단지 내에는 다양한 네트워크가 형성되어 있다. 각각의 네트워크들은 네트워크를 구성하는 요소들이 필요로 하는 물질의 생산 및 수송을 통하여 물질의 수요를 충족시킨다. 네트워크 자체적으로 직접 생산을 통하여 각 공장들이 필요로 하는 물질의 수요를 충족시키기도 하며 수요량의 변화나 경제적 요소들로 인하여 네트워크 외부에서 필요로 하는 물질을 구매하여 네트워크 내에서 수송하기도 한다. 특히나 유틸리티 네트워크와 수소 네트워크는 대규모 산업 단지의 대표적인 네트워크들이며 이러한 네트워크들의 비용적 절감 및 네트워크 구성의 최적화와 관련된 많은 연구들이 수행되어 왔다. 하지만 두 네트워크를 연결하여 통합된 네트워크 모델을 구축하여 최적화를 진행한 연구는 진행되어 오지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 유틸리티 네트워크에서 발생되는 여분의 스팀을 수증기 메탄 개질 공정의 원료로 사용하여 수소를 생산한 후, 생산된 수소를 수소 네트워크에 주입하여 수소 네트워크의 수소 수요량을 충족시키는 모델을 개발하였다. 제시된 모델은 유틸리티 네트워크의 유틸리티 수요량과 수소 네트워크의 수소 수요량을 모두 충족시키면서 통합된 네트워크 모델의 최적 설계 및 네트워크 구성도를 결정할 수 있게 하고, 요구되는 전체 비용을 계산 가능하게 한다. 본 연구에서 제시한 모델의 타당성을 평가하기 위하여 국내 최대 규모의 대규모 석유 화학 산업단지를 가지고 있는 여수 석유 화학 단지를 대상으로 사례를 적용해 보았으며 이 사례 연구를 통하여 얻은 결과는 기존의 유틸리티 네트워크와 수소 네트워크를 개별적으로 연구한 결과와 비교하여 더 최적의 결정을 제시할 것이다.

This study analyzed keyword networks and Author's Affiliation networks of hydrogen-related papers published in Korea Citation Index (KCI) journals from 2016 to 2020. The study investigated co-occurrence patterns of institutions over time to examine collaboration trends of hydrogen scholars. The study also conducted frequency analysis of keyword networks to identify key topics and visualized keyword networks to explore topic trends. The result showed Collaborative research between institutions has not yet been extensively expanded. However, collaboration trends were much more pronounced with local universities. Keyword network analysis exhibited continuing diversification of topics in hydrogen research of Korea. In addition centrality analysis found hydrogen research mostly deals with multi-disciplinary and complex aspects like hydrogen production, transportation, and public policy.

석유화학단지내에서 석유화학공장과 정유공장과 같은 산업현장에서는 상당량의 수소가 부산물로 발생되고 있으나, 이는 대부분 자체적으로 연료로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 연료로 사용되는 상당량의 수소를 에너지원의 원료나 기타 공정의 원료로 재활용할 경우, 현재보다 수소의 가치를 높여서 사용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 석유화학단지내 공장간 수소 재활용 네트워크를 설계하였다. 수소 핀치 분석을 통하여 교환망 구성에 필요한 최소의 수소 요구 및 정제량을 파악하고, 네트워크 구성에 필요한 비용과 기타 제약 조건으로 최적화 문제를 구성하여 공급처(source)와 수요처(sink) 공장간에 최적으로 수소를 재활용하기 위한 네트워크를 설계하였다.

With the advent of the post-2020 climate regime, the hydrogen industry is growing rapidly around the world. In order to build the hydrogen economy, it is important to identify social issues related to hydrogen and prepare countermeasures for them. Accordingly, this study conducted a semantic network analysis on hydrogen news from NAVER. As a result of the analysis, the number of hydrogen news in 2020 increased by 4.5 times compared to 2016, and as of 2018, the hydrogen issue has shifted from an environmental aspect to an economic aspect. In addition, although the initial government-led hydrogen industry is expanding to the mobility field such as privately-led fuel cell electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel, terms showing concerns about the safety such as explosions are constantly being exposed. Thus, it is necessary not only to expand the hydrogen ecosystem through the participation of private companies, but also to promote hydrogen safety.

In this study, the on-site hydrogen production process for refueling stations that were not energy-optimized was improved through exergy analysis and heat exchange network synthesis. Furthermore, the process was scaled up from 30 Nm3/h to 150 Nm3/h to improve hydrogen production capacity. Exergy analysis results show that exergy destruction in the SMR reactor and the heat exchanger accounts for 58.1 and 19.8%, respectively. Thus, the process is improved by modifying the heat exchange network to reduce the exergy loss in these units. As a result of the process simulation analysis, thermal and exergy efficiency is improved from 75.7 to 78.6% and 68.1 to 70.4%, respectively. In conclusion, it is expected to improve the process efficiency when installing on-site hydrogen refueling stations.

Recently, severe accidents in nuclear power plants (NPPs) have become a global concern. The aim of this paper is to predict the hydrogen buildup within containment resulting from severe accidents. The prediction was based on NPPs of an optimized power reactor 1,000. The increase in the hydrogen concentration in severe accidents is one of the major factors that threaten the integrity of the containment. A method using a fuzzy neural network (FNN) was applied to predict the hydrogen concentration in the containment. The FNN model was developed and verified based on simulation data acquired by simulating MAAP4 code for optimized power reactor 1,000. The FNN model is expected to assist operators to prevent a hydrogen explosion in severe accident situations and manage the accident properly because they are able to predict the changes in the trend of hydrogen concentration at the beginning of real accidents by using the developed FNN model.

석유화학산업단지의 수소 네트워크 최적화는 석유화학산업 단지 내 각 업체 간 잉여 수소와 필요 수소의 양과 순도를 조사하여 최적의 분배를 구해는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 네트워크를 구성할 때 기존의 파이프라인을 고려한다면 비용을 줄일 수 있는 효과를 정량적으로 명확하게 알아보기 위해 가상의 수소 네트워크를 구성하여 기존의 파이프라인을 활용하는 것과 활용하지 않는 두 가지의 case를 모델링하고 수리계획법을 사용하여 계산, 비교해 보았다. 그 결과 기존의 파이프라인을 활용한다면 가정된 조건 하 에서 파이프비용을 20%이상 줄이고 전체네트워크 이익을 약 14억 원 증가시키는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper demonstrated the performance of a palladium wire hydrogen sensor based on a fiber Bragg grating as a means of developing a quasi-distributed hydrogen sensor network capable of operating at cryogenic temperatures. The new approach employing a fiber Bragg grating based palladium hydrogen sensor described in this study is advantageous over other traditional hydrogen sensors because of the multiplexing capability of fiber Bragg gratings. The sensitivity of the hydrogen sensor at room temperature is approximately 2.5 times that of the hydrogen sensor at cryogenic temperatures.

Decentralized energy production without greenhouse gas emissions from renewable energy sources despite their advantage and environmental impact suffers from the problem of intermittent and fluctuating supply depending on weather conditions. To overcome this problem, energy storage is essential to enable reliable and continuous supply of the load. Hydrogen is one of the most promising energy storage solutions because it is easily transportable and can be used as fuel or as a raw material for the production of other chemicals.In this article, we will focus on hydrogen energy storage techniques using photovoltaic systems. We will review the different types of hydrogen storage structuresfor several applications, including residential and commercial buildings, as well as industry and transportation (electric vehicles using PEFMC fuel cells).

Recently, the world has been considering hydrogen energy as the primary energy transition means to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. In order to achieve the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, Korea is also promoting a clean hydrogen economy. However, it is necessary to introduce various clean hydrogen from overseas so that the projected demand can not meet the domestically produced. For this study, we conducted the policy comparison approach between countries other than the generally considered technical and economic approaches. The finding proposes the direction of bilateral cooperation for a strategy of securing overseas clean hydrogen from a geopolitical perspective. Germany was a target country for the policy comparison since it has a high proportion of manufacturing, like Korea, and is taking the lead in the renewable-based energy transition policy. According to the survey and analysis of the policy establishment status and new projects of the two countries, Germany is promoting bilateral international cooperation in the hydrogen area with about 33 countries based on 7 types of activities. In comparison, Korea is involved in bilateral cooperation with about 12 countries on relatively few activities. Among the types of bilateral cooperation, R&D cooperation with advanced countries for hydrogen technology was a common activity type. Germany preemptively promotes cooperation for demonstration and commercialization, considering geopolitical means and strengthening manpower training and assistance on policy and regulation to preoccupy the market for the future. Therefore, it is necessary to consider establishing a network of an entire life cycle of supply and demand network that links the future market with securing clean hydrogen considering the geopolitical distribution. To this end, Korea also needs to expand bilateral cooperation countries by activity type, and it seems necessary to seek various geopolitical-based bilateral cooperation and support measures for developing countries to diversify the supply sources of hydrogen.
