The characteristics of spontaneous ignition of painting waste was investigated at constant ambient temperature in oven. As the results of experiments, the spontaneous ignition temperature decreased as the sample vessel became large, and the spontaneous ignition temperature of the sample in small, intermediate and large vessels was $165.5^{\circ}C$, $144.5^{\circ}C$ and $134.5^{\circ}C$ respectively. The apparent activation energy calculated by the Frank-Kamentskii's thermal ignition theory was 34.73 kcal/mol.

Spontaneous ignition characteristics of rice cracker were observed by preforming experiments at constant ambient temperature. As the results of the experiments, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature were exponentially decreased with the increase of ambient temperature. Type of combustion of rice cracker are smouldering combustion at low ignition temperature and flame combustion at high temperature. The rice cracker containing pam oil showed lower spontaneous ignition temperature than pure rice cracker because of oxidation heat of pam oil.

The spontaneous ignition of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose(HPMC) was investigated at constant ambient temperature in the oven and minimum ignition temperature of dust clouds with Godbret-Creenwald Furnace respectively, In the experiments of the vessel filled with sample. the larger the vessel was the lower the spontaneous ignition temperature and ambient temperature was calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii thermal ignition theory. The minimum ignition temperature for the dust cloud state was found under 21% oxygen concentration. At the experiment with the change of oxygen concentration, HPMC was not ignite at 10% $O_2$and so the limiting oxygen concentration was obtained at 10%.

In this study, we considered the ignition possibility for the shredded thermoplastic elastomer at the fire ground loaded the waste TPE. The average moisture content of the TPE sample was almost 0.33 wt.% at $110^{\circ}C$ and the range of ignition point was $461.9{\sim}491.9^{\circ}C$ approximately. In addition, we analyzed the change of weight and calorie the TPE sample according to temperature variations using the TG-DTA analyzer. As a result, the weight loss occurred twice in $250{\sim}420^{\circ}C$ and $420{\sim}473^{\circ}C$, and we found the second weight loss temperature range was the ignition point of TPE. Also, we conducted the spontaneous ignition tests of TPE for the wet and dry samples and we confirmed that the possibility of spontaneous ignition of TPE was very low. The elapsed time and humidity had little influence on the spontaneous ignition of TPE in this experimental conditions. In conclusion, the spontaneous of the shredded waste TPE in this study.

Spontaneous ignition charactenstics for fish meal were observed by performing experiments at constant ambient temperature and varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally. As the results of the experiments at a constant ambient temperature, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature of the sample for large, intermediate and small vessels was 170.5$^{\circ}C$, 177.5$^{\circ}C$ and 188.5$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased as the sample vessel size increased. Apparent activation energy of used fish meal calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii's thermal ignition theory was 37.60Kcal/mol. In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the amplitudes of temperature were 1$0^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$ respectively with the period in each amplitude 1hr, 2hrs and 3hrs. The results showed that the critical spontaneous ignition temperatures at the varied amplitudes of temperature were lower than that at the constant anbient temperature and increased as the amplitude increased. At the same amplitude, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature increased with the period.

The spontaneous ignition induction time and temperature distribution were observed by performing experiments for granulated activated carbon. As the results of the experiments at the same amplitude, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature was decreased with increase of the time period, while, the ignition induction time was increased with the increase of the time period. The critical spontaneous ignition temperature was decreased with the increase of the amplitude for the shorter period. The temperature distribution of the sample showed the highest around ignition-point at center of the vessel and after ignition the highest temperature was moved toward surface of the vessel.

This study was conducted to assess the hazards of gasoline in relevance to the changes in octane numbers, and gasoline's spontaneous ignition temperature and instantaneous ignition temperature were measured. Spontaneous ignition temperature of regular gasoline was $301^{\circ}C$ for sample quantity of $100{\sim}125{\mu}{\ell}$. Spontaneous ignition temperature of middle gasoline was $380^{\circ}C$ for sample quantity of $125{\mu}{\ell}$ and that of premium gasoline was $400^{\circ}C$. As gasoline's octane numbers increased, their spontaneous ignition temperatures increased, and their instantaneous ignition temperature were almost identically $499^{\circ}C$ for sample quantity of $125{\mu}{\ell}$. In addition, activation energies of regular gasoline, middle gasoline, and premium gasoline were 10.48 Kcal/mol, 16.89 Kcal/mol, and 24.55 Kcal/mol respectively.

The characteristics of critical spontaneous ignition of granulated activated carbon were investigated In atmospheres of differing oxygen concentration. At the same concentration the larger vessels yielded the lower critical spontaneous ignition temperature. At the same vessel, as the concentration of oxygen was reduced, Ignition occurred later and at higher ambient temperature, and critical spontaneous ignition temperature increased. The apparent activation energy calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii's ignition theory appeared to be the slight different value respectively and the mean apparent activation energy was 19850㎈/㏖.

Sponataneous ignition characteristics for granulated activated carbon were observed by performing experiments at constant ambient temperature and varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally. In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the amplitudes of temperature were 5$^{\circ}C$, 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the period in each amplitude was varied at an interval of 30minutes from zero to 3hours. As the results of experiments at a constant ambient temperature, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature of the sample decreased as the sample vessel size increased. Apparent activation energy of the sample calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii's thermal Ignition theory was 38.82［kca1/mo1］ In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the critical spontaneous ignition tempera-ture was lower than that at the constant ambient temperature, and the minimum critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased with the amplitude of heating sinusoidal curve. At the same amplitude, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased until it reached the minimum point and then in-creased as the period increased.
