  • CCS(Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage)은 온실가스의 주원인 중 하나인 $CO_2$를 감축하기 위한 대안으로 발전, 시멘트 및 철강 산업 등에서 발생하는 대량의 $CO_2$를 포집, 압축 액화하여 저장소에 격리하는 일련의 전 과정을 말한다. 이때, 포집된 $CO_2$는 수송 과정 전 후에 임시저장소에 저장 하게 된다. $CO_2$는 일반적으로 비 가연성, 무독성 가스로 저장소에서 화학적 폭발을 일으킬 가능성이 희박한 가스지만, 임시로 저장되어 보관될 동안 100bar이상의 압력으로 보관되고 있으며, 포집된 가스에 포함된 불순물과 산화물 등에 의해 용기의 부식으로 인한 물리적 폭발이 일어날 가능성이 있다. 폭발 강도는 일반적으로 TNT 상당질량을 통해 계산할 수 있으며, $CO_2$ 임시 저장소는 대량의 $CO_2$를 보관하기 위한 시설로 용기의 용량을 100,000L(100톤)로 가정하여 계산하였다. 계산을 통하여 약 100bar로 압축되어 저장된 100톤의 임시저장소 1개가 폭발할 때의 폭발위력을 산출하면, 대략 2346 lb 이며, 이를 환산하면 약 1064 kg의 TNT가 폭발하는 위력과 동일한 것으로 계산된다. 폭발중심으로부터의 거리에 따른 과압은 환산법칙(scaling law)을 통해 계산하였다. 또한, 폭발과압으로 인한 인체 상해에 대해 폐출혈(Lung Haemorrhage)로 인한 사망과 고막파열 등의 상해를 고려하여 Probit 모델을 통하여 추정하였다.

  • The paper analyzes GMO legal system and the problems of its management in China and their suggestions to Korea. GMO has been arising as a principal alternative of grain while grain prices continue to climb. Although there has been concerns about GMO imported from China, it is true that we have not studied on China's legal system and the problems of its management in China. The paper believes that when Chinese government does not manage GMO primarily, we have a high possibility that China's GMO food will access to Korean market at any time, and threaten our health and safety. Hence, it is highly time to analyze how legally China treats GMO and what the problems of its management are. The paper found out problems of China's GMO management in three ways. Firstly, GMO legal system of China is confused and it has limitation of effectiveness. China has no regulations like "a law" to regulate GMO and regulations which exists now are not easy to apply in substance. Secondly, China has no administrative strictness to manage GMO. For example, the regulation which ministry of agriculture in China promulgated in March of 2002 started to use partially since 2003, 7. Thirdly, China, as a nation that administration superiors to, market does not do its roll to control GMO. It relates to the low concerns and care of Chines people about GMO. The paper shows suggestions and countermeasures according to problems of China's GMO management.

  • Objectives: Since the material safety data sheets(MSDS) submission and non-disclosure review system was introduced in January 2021, the implementation status of MSDS for chemical manufacturing and importing workplaces being supervised for the first time. Methods: A supervisory team consisting of two labor inspectors and one from the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency directly visited the selected workplaces to check compliance with the MSDS system as a whole. Results: As a result of supervising 214 chemical substance manufacturing/importing workplaces, a total of 241 violations of the law were found in 121 workplaces, or 57% of them. In response, the Ministry of Employment and Labor took legal action on 8 cases in 6 locations, imposed a fines totaling of 249.69 million won on 120 chemical handling workplaces, and took action to correct the violations immediately. Conclusions: Major violations were in the order of non-request for warning signs, non-submission of MSDS, non-execution of MSDS training, and non-posting of MSDS. This shows the reality that employers who handle chemical substances are sufficiently communicating chemical information to workers. In the future, the government will actively implement preparation and submission support and system guidance for the implementation of the MSDS system, while making efforts to ensure that the MSDS system works well in the field through thorough on-site supervision in the future.

  • 본 연구에서는 교내 실습 중 방사선(학)과 에 지정된 방사선작업종사자 및 수시출입자의 피폭 정도를 분석하여 방사선(학)과에 대한 원자력안전법의 방사선 방호에 대한 타당성과 최적화에 대한 기초 연구에 목적을 두었다. 연도별 작업종사자의 평균 피폭선량 2014년과 2016년에 0.01 mSv로 가장 낮은 수치가 나타났으며. 가장 높은 수치는 2018년도로 0.12 mSv이다. 연도별 수시출입자의 평균 피폭선량은 2018년 0.013 mSv로 가장 낮은 수치를 보였으며, 2016년 0.022 mSv로 가장 높은 수치가 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 방사선 발생장치만을 사용하는 대학의 담당교수, 실습 조교 및 방사선(학)과의 학생들은 교내실습 과정에서 받는 연간 피폭선량은 일반인의 선량한도인 1mSv에도 미치지 못하는 수준이다. 그러므로 방사선(학)과 학생들의 피폭선량이 일반인의 선량한도 보다 낮게 나오는 시점에서 현재 원자력안전법의 안전규제는 과도한 규제라고 판단된다. 따라서 현재의 원자력안전법에서 방사선 발생장치의 규정을 개정하거나 대학의 재학생에 대한 방사선안전관리 체계를 수정하는 것은 필요하다고 사료된다.

  • The economy of Korea has grown up significantly in its scale. It has, therefore, become imperative to develop countermeasures to prevent work related injuries and occupational illnesses resultining from haza-rdous working conditions and handling harmful substances. A lot of cargo handling accident in port have occurred due to the characteristics of poor working environment, diversity of working place and method, fluctuation of the amount of cargo and handling of heavy, long, harmful and dangerous cargo, etc. According to '91 industrial accident analysis carried out by the ministry of labour, the number of the stevedores injured by cargo handling accident in port were 1, 432 persons (the death accident : 22 per-sons), the amount of industrial accident compensation in port was 6.7 billion won (the amount of economic loss : 33.6 billion won), and the injury occurance rate of the stevedoring industry was higher than that of the whole industry. This paper, therefore, aims to the actual status of the stevedoring industry and to extract the main cau-ses of the accidents related to cargo handling in port through factor analysis using the data of the accide-nts in the whole habour from 1990 to 1992, and to suggest the countermeasures to prevent such accident. The main causes of the accident and countermeasures are found to be as follows through the factor analy-sis : Factor1, factor2, and factor3 related to a defect of human being and management, a defect of state and environment, and an insufficiency of education and law are extracted. The short-term countermeasures to prevent these accidents are 1) to consolidate the safety and health organization in the working spot, 2) to secure a safe condition in working spot before dock work, 3) to strengthen a dock worker's safety educa-tion. The long-term countermeasures are 1) to promote a decasualisation of dock workers, 2) to modernize the cargo working methods through constructing exclusive pier and introducing exclusive cargo handling equipment, 3) to establish a exclusive dock accident prevention organization and the dock workers law. Factor 4, factor5, factor6, and factor7 related to an unfitness, a deficiency of technical knowledge, a nonfu-lfilment of safety measures, and a bad arrangement are extracted. The countermeasures to prevent these accidents are 1) to perform a complete safety inspection of cargo handling equipments and tools and to carry out the dock work according to a working plan, 2) to publish and supply technical safety books, safety instruction book, safety check list, etc., 3) to strengthen the safety patrol at the working spot in habour and to activate a safety fund, 4) to maintain always a clean workshop with the safety consciousness in which the good arragement of the working spot is considered to be the beginning of safety.
