페인트제조시설에서 다량 발생하는 VOC/HAPs은 물질별 독성, 발암성 등의 특징으로 미량으로도 인체에 유해할 뿐만 아니라, 하절기 오존 생성과 악취 민원의 원인물질로 작용하고 있어 이들 시설에 대한 배출특성과 제어방안에 대한 연구가 시급한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 부산지역에 소재한 페인트제조시설 4개소를 선정하여 VOC/HAPs 주 배출공정 및 주요 오염물질을 도출하고 적절한 제어방안을 제시 하였으며, 천연소재인 Kapok fiber의 흡착 시험을 통하여 상용 흡착제로서의 적용 가능성을 평가하였다. 연구결과, 발생되는 VOC/HAPs의 60% 이상이 방지시설로 유입되지 않고 공장내부로 자연 휘발되어 외기로 확산되는 것으로 조사되었고 주요 물질로는 Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylene이 70% 이상의 분포를 나타내었다. 주요 악취 원인물질은 A, B, C사는 Toluene, D사는 m/p-Xylene으로 나타났으며, 악취방지시설인 활성탄 흡착시설의 평균 제거효율은 66.2%로 평가되었다. 이 결과를 토대로 오염물질의 외부확산을 최소화하기 위한 방안으로 중앙제어식 환기장치의 설치 등 다양한 제어방안과 함께 실제 운영시설의 규모를 고려한 흡착시설의 규격, 흡착제량, 교체주기 등을 산출 제시하여 현장에 적용 가능하도록 하였다. 도출된 원인물질을 표준시료로 활용하여 유통 활성탄과 천연소재인 Kapok fiber의 Toluene 흡착시험을 실시한 결과, 활성탄의 제거율은 대부분 99% 이상 우수한 것으로 나타났으나 Kapok fiber는 Space Velocity의 차이에 따라 91.9%, 66.7%의 제거효율을 나타내어 Kapok fiber의 흡착능은 미흡한 것으로 나타났으나, 저렴한 소재 가격, 친환경성 등을 감안한다면 기초 흡착제로서의 적용은 가능한 것으로 판단되었고 향후 상용화에 필요한 추가연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Shipyards are potential environments for using IoT services, sensor networks, and delay tolerant networks. Simulations of those services and networks strongly rely on human mobility models. Results obtained with an unrealistic model may not reflect the true performance of applications, protocols, and algorithms in a shipyard. A lot of synthetic models for human movements have been studied but most of them are generic and focus on the daily movements of humans on city scales. Nevertheless, workers in shipyards have unique movement characteristics such as movement speed, pause time, and attractions places. For instance, workers usually move to some places, where they work, and rarely move to other places in the factory. Movement characteristics of workers not only depend on workers but also on tasks, which they do. For instance, workers, who paint ships, have similar movement speed and pause time. Hence, in this paper, human movements in shipyards are studied. We propose a new human mobility model called the human mobility mode in shipyards (MIS). In MIS, workers are classified into multiple types. Movement characteristics of a worker are similar to other workers in the same type. Based on the visiting probability, workers have some places, where they frequently visits, and some places, where they rarely visit. We analyze real mobility traces and studie to achieve human movement characteristics from real traces. The results show that MIS provides a well-match to the movement characteristic from real traces.

As the customer's needs for diverse colors, the process of bus painting shop is becoming more and more complex. In particular, frequent changes of paint colors in each spray process require the cleaning of the painting nozzles and setting them up for the new paints, which results in increased time and cost and reduced production. This also increases environmental influences. This paper proposes, as a solution to this issue, the use of color selection field (CSF). CSF is physically a system of conveyors that are used to rearrange objects in a flow line. CSF is proposed, in this paper, to be introduced right before the spray process so that buses are better grouped according to their desired colors. Various parameters of the CSF, such as the number of conveyors and algorithms to determine the rearranged sequence of buses, have been determined by running simulations using the digital manufacturing technology, and investigating the simulation results. As an outcome of the proposed solution, the CSF system is expected to reduce approximately 30% of the nozzle cleaning cost for a Korean motor company case, which will not only benefit the company economically, but will also benefit the environment.

Examination of working environments was conducted to get more detailed data about harmful working environments and to make a contribution to more effective management. Study was carried out on 722 factories located in Taegu city and eight counties in Kyungpook Province, Korea, for a period of one year, from February 1 to December 30, 1986. The total number and proportion of workers exposed to harmful material was 37,697, 45.2% among 83,368 workers. The results according to exposed material were as follows: 1. In the case of noise, proportion of exceeding the 8-hour TLV was 59%, Included were nail-cutting in assembly metal manufacturing industry and weaving process in textile. 2. Dust in mill process of coal manufacturing industries exceeded the TLV of second class of dust at all parts and exceeded the TLV at 6% as a whole.: 3. The fields of industry lower than 70 lux of illumination were storage equipment of food, auto-winder of textile, painting of wood wares and coal mixing, and 44% of all cases was lower than standard. 4. As a result of temperature index investigation(WBGT), about 12% of all sujects exceeded limit value. Included parts were rolling machine and reducing room. 5. In the case of organic solvents, TLV was exceeded at about 8%, The parts exceeded TLV according to materials belonged to this category were as follows. 1) Toluene: adhesive work in assembly metal manufacturing 2) Xylene: printing and paint mixing in chemical manufacturing 3) Methyl ethytl ketone: paint mixing in all parts examined and coating machine partially in chemical manufacturing 4) Methyl isobutyl ketone: printing in chemical manufacturing 5) Acetone: vapor polishing in assembly metal manufacturing 6. Among specified chemical materials, the concentration of HC1 in the air in metal assembly manufacturing factory exceeded TLV. in one of three assembly metal manufacturing examined. Others, such as benzene, acetic acid, formic acid, sodium hydroxide, formalin, ammonia, copper, chromate etc. were lower than TLV in its indoor atmospheric concentration. As a whole, the proportion of exceeding TLV was about 0.8% 7. The concentrations of inorganic lead were lower than TLV in all parts examined. The results of this investigation show the fact that current management of working environments is not satisfactory, and so more active management is needed.
