Concentrations of the principal volatile organic compounds, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m,p,o-xylene, styrene, and chlorobenzene were measured at the solid waste treatment plants classified into four categories; municipal waste incinerator, municipal waste landfill site, industrial waste incinerator and industrial waste landfill site. The average concentration of VOCs in industrial waste treatment facilities was 33.43 ppb and was significantly higher than that measured at municipal waste treatment facilities (4.71 ppb). The average toluene concentrations measured at incinerators (13.05 ppb) were a little higher than those measured at landfill sites (11.54 ppb). The contribution of the waste treatment facilities to the concentration of benzene (0.35 ppb) and o-xylene (0.15 ppb) in the industrial area was relatively small. However, toluene measured in the industrial waste treatment facilities was the most abundant VOCs with the average concentration of 21.37 ppb. As a result of analyses of fingerprint, in cases of IISH and ILUS, a variety of compounds other than major VOCs were detected in high level. On the Pearson correlation analysis, the correlation was generally positive and some pairs of these VOCs were very strongly correlated (correlation coefficient > 0.75).

본 연구에서는 국내 유기성 폐기물의 발생 현황과 자원화 가능성을 산출, 평가하고 현재의 퇴비화 처리 및 이용을 조사한 후 앞으로의 활성화 방안을 제시하였다. 먼저, 유기성 폐기물의 대표격인 음식물찌꺼기는 정부의 꾸준한 감소노력으로 점차 발생량이 감소하고 재활용율도 '97년 9.6%까지 점차 증가하는 추세에 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 이러한 재활용율은 아직 미진한 수준으로 더욱 더 향상시키는 것이 필요하며 적극적인 분리수거, 재활용 체계 구축이 꾸준히 진행되어야 하는 것으로 판단되었다. 한편 '97년 전국 축산분뇨의 발생량은 126,339톤/일로서 '94년 발생량 112,750톤/일 보다 11.2%가 증가한 것으로 산출되었고, 전국 77개소의 하수종말처리장에서 발생되는 하수처리슬러지는 '96년도에 하수처리량의 0.03%에 달하는 하루 3,500톤 정도가 발생되는 것으로 나타났다. 사업장 일반 유기성 폐기물과 별도의 관리를 필요로 하는 사업장 지정 폐기물 중 유기물류 등 '96년도 전체 유기성 산업폐기물의 잠재에너지함량은 연간 288만TOE로 산출되었으며 이는 '96년 우리나라 1차에너지 총소비량 1억6천5백만TOE (통상산업부, 1997)의 1.75%에 달하는 것으로 평가되었다. 이중 폐수처리 오니는 재활용율이 31%대에 그치고 상대적으로 매립처리의 비율이 높은 상태로서 발생량이 큰 것을 감안할 때 향후 보다 더 재활용에 대한 고려가 필요한 것으로 분석되었다. 퇴비화 원료는 주로 축산폐기물, 인분, 식품가공 부산물, 어박류, 부엽토, 톱밥 등이었으며, 최근에 이르러 비로소 음식물쓰레기, 오니류의 퇴비화가 시도되고 있었다. 퇴비생산량은 '96년 4월 현재 288개 생산업체에서 약 42만톤 정도를 생산하고 있었으며, 농업용으로의 사용이 가장 많았고 그 외 산림용이나 조경용으로의 사용은 매우 제한되어 있었다. 결론적으로, 퇴비 이용의 활성화를 위해 퇴비제품 규격의 표준화, 퇴비분석 및 품질관리 방법의 확립, 분리수거 및 퇴비화를 통한 품질 개선 등이 필요한 것으로 사료되었다. 특히 도시 산업 유기성 폐기물 퇴비의 사용 증대를 위해 확실한 부숙퇴비의 생산과 함께 중금속 등 유해물질을 줄이는 것이 퇴비 생산량의 증가 못지 않게 중요하다 판단되었다.

This study focuses on the feasibility of bio-gas production using anaerobic digestion by measuring methane generation and biodegradability through the BMP test of industrial organic wastes. Organic wastes consist of entrails of pigs and organic residues of rumen generated from slaughter houses, wastewater sludge from slaughter waste water, fish offal and residues of vegetables from public wholesale markets, and wastewater sludge from the process of wastewater treatment in paper mill. The cumulative methane production by BMP test ranges from 149.3 ml/g-VS to 406.6 ml/g-VS and this is similar to methane generation of the normal wastewater sludge and food waste. As a result of measurement of biodegradability, wastewater sludge (S1 ~ S4) is low, ranging from 27.1% to 58.9 % and organic residues of rumen (G1) is low at 49.6 %. In conclusion, it turned out that raising the hydrolysis by various pre-treatments is necessary in order to produce bio-gas by using industrial organic wastes.

To enhance thermal efficiency of thermal facility through recovery of low and medium temperature waste heat, 1MW organic Rankine cycle system was designed and developed. The exhaust gases of $175^{\circ}C$ at two 100MW power plants in pohang steel works were selected as the representative of low and medium temperature waste heat in industrial process for the heat source of the organic Rankine cycle system. HCFC-123, a kind of harmless refrigerant, was chosen as the working fluid for Rankine cycle. The organic Rankine cycle system with selected exhaust gases and working fluid was designed and constructed. From the operation, it was confirmed that the organic Rankine cycle system is available for low and medium temperature waste heat recovery in industrial process. The optimum operating manuals, such as heat-up of hot water, turbine start-up, and the process of electric power generation, were derived. However, electric power generated was not 1MW as designed but only 670kW. It is due to deficiency of pump capacity for supply of HCFC-123. So it is necessary to increase the pump capacity or to decrease the pressure loss in pipe for more improved HCFC-123 supply.

The catalytic combustion of benzene, toluene and xylene over Pt-based catalyst was investigated in a fixed bed flow reactor system with atmospheric pressure to recycle the waste industrial catalyst for the processes of removing volatile organic compounds. According to the pretreatment condition, the properties of the waste Pt-based catalyst were characterized by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Toller). In the carte of air pretreatment, 20$0^{\circ}C$ was found to be optimal, and increasing pretreatment temperature resulted in the reduction of the catalytic activity. When Pt-based catalyst pretreated at 20$0^{\circ}C$ by alto was retreated by hydrogen, the catalytic activity increased by increasing treatment temperature. In the case of HNO$_3$aqueous solution pretreatment, the catalytic activity decreased by increasing the concentration of HNO$_3$aqueous solution. The catalytic activity was seen to observe the following sequence : benzene > toluene > xylene.

This study is carried out to investigate the water quality changes in Busan Metropolitan streams, The results are as follows. The level of organic contaminants($BOD_{5}$ and $COD_{Mn}$) is found to be low and does not show seasonal variation in domestic waste water streams. But, the level of organic contaminants in industrial waste water streams is relatively high and seems to be seasonally variable, which is affected by other factors. The nutrient materials, such as nitrogen(as T-N, about 20mg/L) and phosphorus(as T-P about 2.0mg/L), are abundant than Nak Dong River and the general trends of contaminants level are similar to those of organic contaminants. The chronic water qualities, including organic, nutrient contaminants levels, show that the loading rates in 1998 are smaller than the past(1983, 1992). And this trend is more evident in industrial waste water streams than domestic waste water streams.

As part of fundamental studies on the degradation of the organic compounds in industrial waste water, the photocatalytic degradation properties of the organic compound by means of the UV/TiO$_2$degradation process have been investigated. The test organic compound of acetic acid was chosen in this study. The testing of photo catalytic degradation were performed under various operation conditions such as TiO$_2$dosages, initial concentration of the organic, the aqueous pH's, etc. The effects of various parameters on the short time activity of the present acetic acid-UV/TiO$_2$system could be demonstrated from this investigation.

This paper investigates the dehydration and RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel) production of organic wastes, livestock manure and sewerage sludge with pressurized hydrothermal treatment process. The renewable technology for the organic wastes must involve short treatment time required, reusable energy source, anti-odor and viruses, low cost for the treatment, and well-fertilization. The pressurized hydrothermal treatment process promotes to evaporate moisture in the waste after being shortly treated in a reactor, which uses steam and heat supplied by an external boiler. By the pressurized steam, the cell walls of the waste break and effectively release the internal moisture. Then, the dried waste can be mixed with waste vinyls to produce RDF with a higher heating value as high as 6,700 kcal/kg.

Many cities and provinces are rapidly depleting landfill spaces. As the result, some municities have adopted to incinerate their municipal solid waste(MSW). The motive behind the choice is that incineration significantly reduces the volume of solid waste in need of disposal, destroys the harmful organic compounds that are present in MSW, and provides an attractive source of alternative energy. Conclusively, the generation of MSW ash is expected to increse in the furture. However, disposing the MSW ash in landfills may not always be an environmentally or an economically feasible solution. This paper addresses the various issues associated with MSW ash and its possible use in construction applications.
