본 연구에서는 자원화 가능한 폐기물의 양이 분석되었으며, 폐기물 자원화시설을 단독 또는 광역시설로 추진할 경우의 설치비 및 운영비를 산정하고, 매립비용과 비교, 분석함으로서 자원화시설의 타당성을 검토하고자 하였다. 자원화시설로는 고형연료화(RDF) 시설과 자원회수시설(소각)에 대한 검토를 수행하였다. 그리고, 강원도 각 시 군별 생활폐기물의 발생량과 가연성 폐기물의 비율을 고려하여 비용분석을 위한 광역권역을 설정하였다. 분석 결과, 단독시설의 경우에는 RDF 및 자원회수시설(소각) 모두 매립방식에 비교하여 경제적 편익이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 광역 시설의 경우, RDF 방식은 매립방식에 비해 많은 비용을 절감하는 것으로 나타났지만, 자소각 방식은 그렇지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 경제적 편익과는 별개로 화석 연료의 고갈, 지구온난화, 환경적 위해성, 그리고 사회적 갈등 등을 고려할 때 폐기물의 자원화는 중요하게 고려되어야 한다. 특히, 향후 CDM 사업이 활성화될 경우 CERs(온실가스 저감인증)에 의한 추가적인 경제적 부가가치도 기대할 수 있을 것으로 나타났다. RDF 시설에 의한 CERs는 약 2,565억원, 자원회수시설에 의한 CERs는 약 540억원(단독시설) 및 774억원(광역시설)으로 분석되었다.

본 연구는 생활계폐기물 중 별도로 분리 배출되어 재활용 선별장으로 반입된 재활용 폐기물에 대한 수집운반에서부터 최종처리까지의 흐름을 분석하였다. 연구는 실제 현장조사를 기본으로 실시하였으며, 조사 결과, 최종 재활용 측면에서는 대체적으로는 적정 처리가 이루어지는 것으로 파악 되었으나, 불필요한 이동 및 중간처리 경로를 통해 처리되는 품목이 상당수 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 지자체에서 선별된 폐자원을 처리 또는 수집운반 하는 업체들은 오로지 경제성 원리에 입각한 폐기물 처리비와 운반비 차익을 주요 수익원으로 하기 때문에 불필요한 중간단계 및 장거리 폐기물 이동현상이 나타나게 된다. 따라서 합리적인 자원순환망 구축을 위한 첫 번째 단계는 폐기물 발생원의 근거리에 있는 재활용업체에서의 우선처리원칙이 필요하며, 필요에 따라 인근 지역의 폐기물을 동시에 처리 할 수 있는 광역처리체계 도입이 타당하다.

Waste to Energy Plant were recognized as hateful facilities, and there were many conflicts in the location due to social problems such as the NIMBY phenomenon due to problems such as damage to property in the surrounding area, odor, and image loss. Problems such as air pollution and odor are solved by the development of advanced prevention facilities such as electric dust collectors, wet cleaning systems, semi-dry reaction towers, bag filters, and catalyst towers (SCR: Selective Catalytic Reduction), and air recycling facilities in waste storage tanks. However, it is being avoided because of the perception that it is an incinerator. To resolve these conflicts, the government installs and operates resident convenience facilities to compensate residents near resource recovery facilities, provides green space and improves the environment, and supports heating expenses in accordance with the 「Waste Treatment Facility Support Act」. The purpose of this study is to derive implications through the analysis of domestic and overseas case studies for resident convenience facilities and environment improvement for the promotion of local communities in resource recovery facilities and use them as basic data for community promotion and environmental improvement when installing resource recovery facilities in the future.

Since the end of the 1990s, sewer pipe improvement works have been going on: most septic tanks have been thrown away and discarded. These discarded septic tanks amounts up to 370,000 based on the project plan 2005-2008: it is a serious squander of nation's resources, a contaminating means that buries toxins under soil, and a cause of a expensive waste. Research on recycling of discarded septic tank as a new resource is in urgent need. This research suggests plans to recycle discarded septic tank as a rainwater management facility, solutions to water cycle recovery in the limelight, and economic analysis of the plan. In the case of a recycling discarded septic tank as a rainwater management facility will socially benefit to support economical adequacy, discard cost saving of septic tank and water supply and sewage cost reduction will come out. Consequently a rainwater management facility converted from a discarded septic tank leads to decentralization of the rainwater management system, which anticipates a positive effect on recovery of urban water cycle.

Large efforts have recently been made on research and development of sustainable and energy-efficient short-cut nitrogen removal processes owing to strong attention to the energy neutral/positive wastewater treatment system. Anaerobic ammonium oxidizing bacteria (anammox bacteria) have been highlighted since 1990's due to their unique advantages including 60% less energy consumption, nearly 100% reduction for carbon source requirement, and 80% less sludge production. Side-stream short-cut nitrogen removal using anammox bacteria and partial nitritation anammox (PN/A) has been well established, whereas substantial challenges remain to be addressed mainly due to undesired main-stream conditions for anammox bacteria. These include low temperature, low concentrations of ammonia, nitrite, free ammonia, free nitrous acid or a combination of those. In addition, an anammox side-stream nitrogen management is insufficient to reduce overall energy consumption for energy-neutral or energy positive water resource recovery facility (WRRF) and at the same time to comply with nitrogen discharge regulation. This implies the development of the successful main-stream anammox based technology will accelerate a conversion of current wastewater treatment plants to sustainable water and energy recovery facility. This study discusses the status of the research, key mechanisms & interactions of the protagonists in the main-stream PN/A, and control parameters and major challenges in process development.

In Korea, the Vehicle Dismantler and Recycler industry is supervised by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport under the Automobile Management Act. Also, Korean Automotive recycling businesses are supervised by the Minister of Environment under the Resource Recirculation Act. The main concern of the Minister of Environment is how the wastes from Dismantled vehicles will be environmentally removed, stored, treated, recycled or disposed. In 2000, the European Union (EU) adopted the End-of-Life Vehicles Directive (2000/53/EC) which required Members to ensure the collection, treatment and recovery of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs). The Directive, the most tightly regulated and precautionary legal systems, required that the last owner of a vehicle could drop off the ELV at an authorized treatment facility and that the producers of the ELV should pay the cost of the program. The adoption of the ELVs directive has led the development of Automotive Dismantler and Recycler networks to reuse, refurbish, remanufacture, recycle and recover parts and materials embedded in ELVs. Also, the ELVs directive which has had an insignificant impact on Korean manufacturers has strong presence in the European market and has been successfully externalized on them. The Korean manufacturers not only achieve the 85% recycling target set by the ELVs directive but also meet the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) which requires manufacturers to contribute dismantling process. In order to improve the Korean vehicle dismantling and recycling system, the Automobile Management Act and the Resource Recirculation Act should be harmonized. Particularly the roles of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Minister of Environment should be sharply divided. Like Japan, the ELV management needs to be highly centralized, regulated, and controlled by the ministry specialized in Vehicle, namely the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the sub organizations. Like EU Members, recovery, reuse, and recycling must be distinguished. Recovery is defined as the final productive use of the parts and materials embedded in ELVs, which includes reuse and remanufacture of parts and recycling of the other materials. Dismantling process and reuse and remanufacture of parts must be governed by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. For environmental recycling or disposal of waste materials, such as CFCs, glass and plastic material, and toxic substances, governmental financial support system should be in place.

Since the Framework Act on Resource Circulation was enacted in 2018, the government should establish a National Resource Circulation Master Plan every 10 years, which defines mid- to long-term policy goals and directions on the efficient use of resources, prevention of waste generation and recycling of waste. In addition, we must set mid- to long-term and stepwise targets for the final disposal rate, recycling rate (based on sorted recyclable materials and recycled products), and energy recovery rate of wastes, and relevant measures should be taken to achieve these targets. However, the current industrial waste (IW) statistics have limitations in setting these targets because the final disposal rate and recycling rate are calculated as the ratio of the recycling facility input to the IW generation. In this study, the material flow from the collection stage to the final disposal of industrial waste was analyzed based on the generation of 2016, and the actual recycling amount, actual incineration amount, final disposal amount and their rates were calculated. The effect on the recycling, incineration and final disposal rates was examined by changing the treatment method of nonhazardous wastes from the factory and construction and demolition wastes, which were put in landfills in 2016. In addition, the variation of the waste treatment charge was investigated according to the change of treatment methods. The results of this study are expected to be effectively used to establish the National Resource Circulation Master Plan and industrial waste management policy in the future in South Korea.

In the existing wired communication network, wired communication is frequently interrupted by lightning, which accompanies rain, and remote management cannot be performed when it is actually necessary. In the case of communication interruption, field data stored in the database are lost, and data at an important point in time may go missing; this causes a decrease in the reliability of the stored data. Therefore, in this study, wireless communication using the Internet of Things (IoT) communication network of the 4^th industrial technology is installed in the prototype to reduce wired communication construction costs, prevent resource waste and environmental damage due to communication facility construction, and prepare for communication loss.
