  • According to the EPA in Taiwan report, 9.05 million metric tons of solid wastes were generated in 1999, and the waste glass was accounted of 4.95 percent. However, with the increasing tonnage of disposal cost and existing disposal sites are reaching full capacity, recycling is currently accepted as a sustainable approach to waste management. Therefore, it's essential and urgent that the government in Taiwan establish the recycling and recovery framework for the minimization of the solid waste, reduction of materials and energy consumption, and the encouragement for the reuse, recycle and recovery development. To achieve this Boal, Taiwan has been strived for a long period of time in waste glass recovery and recycle. Waste glass, unlike other kinds of resource waste, is 100% recyclable. The EPA in Taiwan now center on a lot of different kinds of waste glass, such as glass container, flat glass, CRT glass, windshields glass, fluorescent lamps, and waste pesticide glass container. This article will focus on the framework of the recycling market access, and also try to provide some strategies to improve waste glass recycling efficiently.

  • The management of municipal solid waste (MSW) is essential for every community; and, it is currently a major challenge in Nigeria. This paper provides an overview of the current MSW management trends in Nigeria and proposes new sustainable MSW management systems. Across Nigerian cities, MSW management is characterized by inefficient collection and transportation to disposal sites. Collection services do not reach some unplanned areas and slums due to poor street network. Even some planned areas are not reached by collection services. The informal sector contributes to waste collection, resource recovery and recycling; however, their activities are not recognized by the governments. Markets exist for recovered materials but more efforts need to be geared towards intensive recovery of materials and expansion of these markets. Despite the high proportion of putrescible matter in MSW, the only form of treatment commonly used currently is open burning for volume reduction. The high organic fraction presents a great opportunity for composting and anaerobic digestion. Ultimate disposal is currently done in open dumpsites. This needs to be upgraded to engineered landfills that are properly sited and adequately operated by well trained personnel. There is an emerging waste stream of concern, electronic-waste (e-waste), that requires urgent sustainable management as e-waste are currently co-disposed with other waste streams or burnt in the open posing detrimental health impacts.

  • This objectives of research are to figure out combustion characteristics with increasing temperature with petrochemical sludge by adding wasted organic matters which are waste electric wire, anthracite coal and sawdust, and to exam heating value and ignition temperature for using refused derived fuels(RDFs). After analyzing TGA/DTG, petrochemical sludge shows a rapid weight reduction by vaporing of inner moisture after $170^{\circ}C$. Gross weight reduction rate, ignition temperature and combustion rates represent 68.6%, $221.9^{\circ}C$ and 54.1%, respectively. In order to assess the validity of the RDFs, the petrochemical sludge by adding wasted organic matters which are waste electric wire, anthracite coal and waste sawdust. The materials are mixed with 7:3(petrochemical sludge : organic matters)(wt%), and it analyzes after below 10% of moisture content. The ignition temperatures and combustion rates of the waste electric wire, anthracite coal and waste sawdust are $410.6^{\circ}C$, $596.1^{\circ}C$ and $284.1^{\circ}C$, and 85.6%, 30.7% and 88.8% respectively. In heating values, petrochemical sludge is 3,600 kcal/kg. And the heating values of mixed sludge (adding 30% of the waste electric wire, anthracite coal and waste sawdust) each increase up to 4,600 kcal/kg, 4,100 kcal/kg and 4,300 kcal/kg. It improves the ignition temperatures and combustion rates by mixing petrochemical sludge and organic matters. It is considered that the production of RDFs is sufficiently possible by using of petrochemical sludge by mixing wasted organic matters.

  • 본 연구는 실험실 규모의 회분식 반응기로 음식물쓰레기와 돈분을 퇴비화하였으며, 수분, C/N비 및 비중 조절재로써 톱밥과 코코넛 피트를 사용하였다. 첨가재로 톱밥만을 이용하여 생산된 퇴비와 톱밥과 코코넛 피트를 이용하여 생산된 퇴비를 비교하여 볼 때, 전자가 후자보다 감량율과 분해율이 약간씩 높게 나타났다. 이는 코코넛 피트가 톱밥보다 보습력이 뛰어났기 때문이며, 초기 수분량이 낮고, 통기성이 좋아 적정의 비중조절이 가능하여 호기성 발효를 촉진할수 있었다. 음식물 쓰레기만에 의한 퇴비는 그 비료성분이 부산물 비료의 기준을 만족시킬 수 없으며, 따라서 음식물쓰레기와 돈분을 동일 비율로 혼합하여 양질의 퇴비를 생산할 수 있었다. CEC값은 평균적으로 63.8me/100g 이었다. 톱밥의 높은 C/N비 때문에 퇴비화 초기의 C/N비는 적절하게 조절되었다. C/N비(>40)가 높을수록 감소율이 컸으며, 퇴비화하는 동안의 C/N비는 점점 향상되었다.

  • 향후 원자력시설 해체 시 막대한 양의 해체 콘크리트 폐기물이 발생할 수 있음을 감안하였을 때, 방사성 콘크리트 폐기물의 최적 처리기술에 대한 면밀한 검토와 향후 기술개발 방향에 대한 논의는 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 방사성 콘크리트 폐기물의 국내외 발생 사례를 종합해 보고, 처리 대상이 되는 방사성 콘크리트 폐기물의 특성을 검토하였다. 또한, 종래의 방사성 콘크리트 처리기술로써 기계적 제염기술, 화학적 제염기술, 부피감용기술, 재활용 및 고화기술에 대한 국내외 적용사례를 정리하고 기술 개발 동향을 살펴봄으로써 기존 기술의 한계점을 파악하고 기술 고도화 방향을 고찰해 보고자 한다.

  • 현재 국내 외의 가장 큰 관심사 중의 하나는 친환경 건설이다. 그 중 가장 중요한 요소 중의 하나는 건설폐기물의 저감과 재활용일 것이다. 건설폐기물은 해체단계에서 가장 많이 배출되기 때문에 본 단계에서 폐기물의 발생량이 최소화 될 수 있도록 하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 발생된 폐기물을 관리하기 위한 시스템 개발 또한 중요하다. 그러나 국내에서는 이에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 못했다. 최근에, 정부에서는 이에 대한 중요성을 인지하고 해체방법을 개선하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 분리해체를 법제화하기 위한 준비를 하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내에서 이루어지고 있는 해체기술동향 분석을 통해 해체기술의 적용사항과 그 중요성을 검토하였다. 또한 해체산업의 현황파악을 위해 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사 및 분석 결과를 통해 해체기술개발, 해체설계, 폐기물저감 등을 위해 필요한 사항을 제시하였다.

  • The asphalt mixture with CRM(Crumb Rubber Modifier) is known to show a better performance in resisting thermal cracking, fatigue cracking and rutting compared with the conventional mixture. The laboratory tests on the physical characteristics of indirect tensile strength, density, flow and Marshall value of the CRM asphalt were conducted. The test results show that CRM asphalt has better physical characteristics than that of conventional asphalts. And the analysis on the noise reduction effect, penetration capacity from the field test on the national road in Haksan of Chungbuk, and recycling of tire waste were conducted. From this study, the results show that 1% CRM asphalt has higher the noise reduction effect and penetration capacity that those of conventional asphalts. And, optimal contents of crumb rubber modifier in the asphalt binder is one percent. In this case, crumb rubber modifier were used 10 kg to make the asphalt binder of one cubic meter. So it was named as Eco-asphalt.

  • The electrochemical behavior was investigated during the electrolysis of nickel oxide in LiCl-Li2O salt mixture at 650℃ by changing several components. The focus of this work is to improve anode design and shroud design to increase current densities. The tested components were ceramic anode shroud porosity, porosity size, anode geometry, anode material, and metallic porous anode shroud. The goal of these experiments was to optimize and improve the reduction process. The highest contributors to higher current densities were anode shroud porosity and anode geometry.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the influences of polystyrene content and St/UP on the setting shrinkage and strengths of polymer mortar with waste expanded polystyrene resin as a shrinkage-reducing agent, and to recommend the optimum binder formulations for product of low-shrinkage polymer mortar. In this paper, polymer mortar is prepared with waste expanded polystyrene content and St/UP, and tested for setting shrinkage, flexural and compressive strengths. From the test results, irrespective of increasing of waste expanded polystyrene resin, the strengths reduction of polymer mortar with waste expanded polystyrene(EPS) resin is not recognized. And the setting shrinkage is reduced with EPS resin content. The waste expanded polystyrene resin as a shrinkage-reducing agent can be used in the same manner as commercial polystyrene resin. In this study, we can obtain the optimum mix proportions of polymer mortar using EPS resin.

  • Community residents are tend to evade waste treatment facilities such as waste landfills, waste incinerators. Therefore, decision-makers of waste management are concerned about the reduction and recycling of food garbage. As a treatment alternative of food garbage which consists of 30% of municipal waste, producing compost and feed stuff from food garbage is environmentally amenable. In considering the characteristics of food garbage are putrid and high moisturized, methods of landfilling and incineration for food garbage are environmentally inadequate. For the institutionalization of food garbage recycling, separate discharge, establishment of collection system, securing of market for compost and feed stuff manufactured from food garbage, and tax and financial incentives for food garbage recycling facilities are necessary.
