  • Heavy oil residue upgrading process was being used in conventional refinery process. Recently, as the importance of non conventional energy development is growing up, the commercial projects of heavy oil upgrading are getting more active than before. For having competitive business model in the resource competition, non conventional energy development should be considered as an important business strategy. In developing oil sands, extra heavy oil, and shale gas, canadian oil sands and extra heavy oil have great importance in substitution of conventional oil consumption. In oil sands development, the bitumen, which is extracted from oil sands, has great value after upgrading or refining process. Similar process is being used current conventional refinery process. The bitumen is highly viscous hydrocarbon. This bitumen includes impurities which can not be treated in conventional refinery process. As this reason, specified process is needed in bitumen or extra heavy oil upgrading process. Moreover, there will be additional specified facilities in the process of production, transportation and marketing. In oil sands, there are various kinds of commercial upgrading process. Extraction, dilution, coking and cracking method were being used commercially.

  • The importance of plant factory which blend agriculture and manufacture has been discussed widely. This company has researched hydroponics technique for cultivation which has been mainly developed in the sites of Okinawa and Hyougo Prefecture. In 1987, we stopped the previous research there, and started a new one far plant factory at the Agricultural Research Center of Chiba Prefecture. In 1989, we built four experimental plant factories (120㎡) at Chiba Oil Factory Refinery in Ichihara-city, developing techniques of cultivation, equipment production and environmental control for cultivation system of tomato, strawberry and leaf vegetables.

  • 근래 여천과 울산 석유화학 단지에서의 유해가스 및 폐수에 의한 환경공해는 심각하여 이제 본격적으로 규제에 진입하였다. 국내외의 환경에 대한 관심이 고조되고 생산 환경 변화에 따라 기존 생산 공정에서도 광해물질 배출과 사용 에너지를 최소화하는 공정 개선이 시급하게 되었다. 특히 기존의 제천 공장이나 석유화학 공장 등에서 배출하였던 가연성 악취 공해 부생가스들은 재처리를 의무화하고 있어 이를 효율적으로 이용 또는 처리할 수 있는 공정 개선이 꼭 필요하다.(중략)

  • 우리 사회가 경제적으로 급속히 발전됨에 따라 공업화, 도시의 밀집화, 생활양식의 다양화 등으로 인하여 각종 위험물의 사용이 급증하게 되었으며, 이로 인하여 잠재위험성도 함께 증가되어 각종 위험물 취급 부주위에 따른 폭발화재사고가 급증하고 있다. 한 건의 사고가 인적$\cdot$사회적$\cdot$경제적으로 막대한 피해와 손실을 가져오게 되는 것을 과거 재해사례에서 명백하게 경험할 수 있었다. (중략)

  • 바이오과학기술(BT)과 연관된 첨단기술 용어로 '클린 에너지', '차세대 에너지원', '바이오 연료 에탄올', '에너지 농장' 등의 말이 경쟁하듯 등장하고 있다. 원유를 대신 할 연료를 생물자원에서 얻는다고 하여 '바이오 유전개발'이라는 말도 쓰인다. 바이오 자원을 이용하여 에탄올을 생산하려는 바이오 정유공장(Bio refinery plant) 사업은 유전개발 못지 않은 미래 산업으로 대두되고 있다. 한국의 몇몇 기업은 바이오 정유공장의 원료로 사용할 뿌리작물 카사바를 열대지역 제3국가에서 대량 재배하려는 계획을 추진하고 있다.

  • Northeast Asia where is an epicenter of the global financial crisis's conquest is traditional imbalanced region of oil production and consumption. In recent years, the region has been suffered by the shortage of oil storage and transportation facilities due to surging oil trading and necessity in strategic reserves. Therefore, since independent petroleum logistics with the storage facilities and oil trading hub is required to form efficient oil market in this region. In this study, we analyzed the efficiency of refinery facilities by country that is of importance in being a logistics hub in Northeast Asia by employing non-static and dynamic efficiency analysis, which are a part of DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) and then policy implications have been drawn. The result illustrates Korea's is the highest country in terms of efficiency of oil refining facilities in Northeast Asia. It implies that Korea has strong position to be the oil hub in Northeast Asia.

  • This study examined the characteristics of the waste catalyst used in the petroleum refinery operations. The total pore volume, specific surface area, and average pore size of the spent catalyst used in the petroleum refinery operations were 3.96cc/g, 13.81m2/g, and 1.15A, respectively. The weight loss observed in the range from $25^{\circ}C-700^{\circ}C$ for the spent catalysts using TG and DTA was approximately 23 wt. %. EDS analysis of the waste catalyst sample showed that the five major components were vanadium, nickel, manganese, iron, and copper. The extraction system is attractive for liquid-liquid extraction. In this study, Cynex 272 was used to extract vanadium from waste catalyst. The electrochemical characteristics of the extracted vanadium solution were measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV). As a result, an oxidation / reduction peak appeared, indicating the potential of an electrolytic solution.
