본 연구는 도시자연공원인 인천대공원을 사례대상지로 공원 탐방객 이용행태 및 특성을 파악하고 이를 기초로 한 생태교육 시설 계획과 프로그램 운영방안 제시를 목적으로 수행하였다 이를 위해 응답자 직접기입 방식의 설문조사가 공원이용을 마치고 귀가하는 376명의 탐방객들을 대상으로 실시되었다. 조사결과 인천대공권을 방문한 탐방객들의 주 방문목적은 자연접촉을 통한 휴식으로 나타났다. 또한 공원내에서의 생태교육 프로그램에 높은 관심을 나타냈으며 향후 적극적인 참여의사를 보였다. 이러한 결과로부터 친자연적 공원이용을 활성화하고 학교환경 교육과도 연계시킬 수 있는 공원운영 정책으로서 생태교육 관련 시설 및 프로그램의 도입 필요성이 제시되었다. 효율적인 시설도입과 프로그램 운영을 위해 생태교육 거점시설 조성과 다양한 생태교육 프로그램의 운영이 특히 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Cellulose fibers is one of the most abundant in nature. It has many distinctive features: abundant in nature, biodegradable, non-toxic, eco-friendly, sustainable, easy to fabricate, hydrophilic, and cost-effective. Cellulose fibers, known as pulp, is produced from cellulose-containing materials by the pulping process. As the raw material, wood has been most commonly used while recycled pulp has been also used to some degree. Thus, pulp usually refers to wood pulp. Generally, the pulp and paper industry is regarded as the commodity market where the cost should be much more important than the quality. It also belongs to a mature market where the growth is slow, or even in decline. Accordingly, technological development has been rather stagnant for the industry. Recently, however, the pulp and paper industry has faced very serious challenges. First, due to digital technology, there has been a steady decline in the need for pulp and paper products. The digital industry has continuously replaced printed products such as books, newspapers, and magazines. Second, there has been a trend initiated by developed countries to limit the use of wood as the raw material for the sake of environmental protection. This forces the industry to find a more efficient use of wood pulp as well as finding alternative, non-wood sources. Third, as an individual becomes wealthier and more conscious of health-care, the quality of a product becomes more important than the cost. Thus, a paradigm shift is needed from the cost-conscientious to the quality conscientious. The objective of this article is to review the technologies aimed at engineering cellulose fibers for producing high-value added paper products.
