As a reinforced fabric, asbestos has been utilized as a fire-resistant material as it has a superior flexural stiffness and heat resistance up to $1500^{\circ}C$. However, due to its harmfulness, its use has been prohibited recently and the even the installed asbestos materials are being repaired or supplemented if there is a concern about flying. Asbestos is mainly used for construction panels as a reinforced fabric and coating materials to ensure the fire-resistance of steel frames. Asbestos was used as fire-resistant materials for steel frames until 1991 and then prohibited as Act on Industrial Safety and Health limits the concentration of asbestos in the air. Classified as a designated waste according to Act on Waste Control, asbestos must be buried if there is no possibility of flying (panel-type materials) or cement-solidified and then buried if there is a possibility of flying (spray coating material) In general, it is required that a new waste landfill include a certain landfill facility for designated waste, but in reality there is an absolute storage of landfill facilities for designated waste as they only install facilities of the size required by the regulations. This could result in the 2nd environmental pollution as they cannot process asbestos wastes which will be generated in large volume in the future. This study explores a method that melts asbestos wastes at $700^{\circ}C$ rather than cement-solidifying the waste asbestos from construction sites, especially asbestos-containing spray coating. The study results showed that there was no change in the composition and shape even though asbestos wastes was melted at $1300^{\circ}C$, but there was a change for the specimen which was process in advance for low temperature melting and then melt at $900^{\circ}C$.

As the supply and demand of natural aggregate becomes more difficult in the domestic construction site continuously, many studies related to the recycled aggregate produced in the construction waste are going on. However, because of the safety and performance of the recycled aggregate, it is not used as aggregate for the structure, and it is mainly used as a nonstructural material. In addition, as the "recycled aggregate quality standard" has been revised in 2017, quality standards for various properties of recycled aggregate have been adjusted, and production technology suitable for recycled aggregate quality standards for concrete is needed. In this study, to improve the quality of recycled aggregate, we applied multistage wind pressure treatment method to the existing recycled aggregate production facility and compared the density, absorption rate, particle size before and after recycled aggregate treatment. As a result, quality criteria in various properties were analyzed satisfactorily.

The expiration date of high energetic materials(HEM), such as HMX, RDX, TNT, is important. If the expiration date is violated, the expected specification of HEM would not be satisfied which may cause a different conclusion in an urgent situation. As a result, this HEM should maintain fresh conditions which cause the accumulation of waste HEM. If HEM is landfilled during demilitarization, the impact on living organizations is serious. Additionally, landfilling HEM has a possibility of explosion. In this research, the process flow diagram of the demilitarization gas treatment process was simulated while satisfying the law of the environment in Korea. After validation of simulation, it was optimized thermodynamically using Heat Exchanger Network Synthesis(HENs). This study is expected to enhance the energy efficiency of the original facility by suggesting developed designs. This research was supported by Agency of Defense Development NE32 Korea.

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been developing pyroprocessing technology for recycling useful resources from spent fuel since 1997. The process includes pretreatment, electroreduction, electrorefining, electrowinning, and a waste salt treatment system. This paper briefly addresses unit processes and related innovative technologies. As for the electroreduction step, a stainless steel mesh basket was applied for adaption of granules of uranium oxide. This basket was designed for ready handling and transfer of feed material. A graphite cathode was used for the continuous collection of uranium dendrite in the electrorefining system. This enhances the throughput of the electrorefiner. A particular mesh type stirrer was designed to inhibit uranium spill-over at the liquid Cd crucible. A residual actinide recovery system was also tested to recover TRU tracer. In order to reduce the waste volume, a crystallization method is employed for Cs and Sr removal. Experiments on the unit processes were tested successfully, and based on the results, engineering-scale equipment has been designed for the PRIDE (PyRoprocess Integrated inactive DEmonstration facility).

본 연구에서는 IMO에서 권장하는 수준의 선박배출 오염물질 처리시스템을 확보하기위해 항만국 의무이행 요건 중 선박배출 폐기물 수용시설의 국내 운영실태를 파악하고 해외 선진 사례를 조사하여 III CODE를 중심으로 IMO 회원국감사내용을 분석하였다. IMO는 항만에 입항하는 선박이 배출하는 오염물질을 적절하게 처리하기 위해 항만오염물질저장시설의 설치 및 운영을 권고하고 있으며 IMO 회원국 감사 시 항만국 이행실태파악을 위해 오염물질저장시설 등록 및 운영현황을 확인하고 있다. 특히 최근 환경규제로 인해 선박에 추가로 탑재된 스크러버 등과 같은 기자재에서 배출되는 스크러버 세정수를 처리하기 위한 추가적인 시설을 요하기 때문에 각 항만별로 주요 입항선박의 선종에 따라 배출되는 폐기물을 수용할 수 있는 오염물질저장시설의 구축이 필요하다. 현재 우리나라 선박배출 폐기물은 항만으로부터 육상 폐기물처리장까지 이동시켜주는 역할밖에 수행되고 있지 않으며 항만에서 배출되는 폐기물의 양과 성상에 대해서도 항만별로 모니터링하고 있지 않고 있어 항만배출 폐기물의 특성에 따른 오염물질저장시설의 적정배치가 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 유창청소업의 수거실적을 모니터링 하는 방법을 개선하여 항만별로 오염물질 배출현황 및 특성에 대해 파악할 수 있도록 하고 동시에 오염물질저장시설의 적절한 배치를 통해 IMO가 권고하고 있는 '선박에서 배출되는 오염물질의 적정처리'가 가능하여 입항선박에 원활한 서비스를 제공하도록 시스템화 한다면 향후 국제해사기구의 회원국감사 대응에 있어 유리할 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, the results of PBDEs and HBCDs of the products and waste that contain BFRs such as domestic electronic products, automobiles and textile products were compared with international management standards, and their excess rates were calculated. Deca-BDE was detected among the PBDEs in TV rear cover plastics, car seats, automotive interior plastics, and automobile shredding residues of products and waste containing BFRs. The comparison with Basel Convention management standards (1,000 mg/kg) for PBDE-containing wastes (4 types in total) shows that the excess rate of all samples was less than 1.5%. The estimated excess rate compared to the EU and Basel convention management standards (1,000 mg/kg) for PBDEs (4 species + deca-BDE) and TV rear cover plastics was 37.5% (30 of 80 samples exceeded the standards). The estimated excess rate compared to the Basel convention management standards (1,000 mg/kg) for HBCD, building materials products and waste was 15.7% (17 of 108 samples exceeded the standards). In the case of PBDEs, it is necessary to remove only the rear cover of CRT TV among the electric and electronic products and treat it in the flame retardant treatment facility to improve the recycling collection system. In the case of HBCD, it is necessary to appropriately dispose of the recycled materials, heat insulation materials, TV plastics, and styrofoam in marine fishery among construction materials and restrict the use as recycled raw materials.

As part of the Department of Energy's Fuel Cycle Research and Development Program an electrochemical technology employing molten salts is being developed for recycle of metallic fast reactor fuel and treatment of light water reactor oxide fuel to produce a feed for fast reactors. This technology has been deployed for treatment of used fuel from the Experimental Breeder Reactor II (EBR-II) in the Fuel Conditioning Facility, located at the Materials and Fuel Complex of Idaho National Laboratory. This process is based on dry (non-aqueous) technologies that have been developed and demonstrated since the 1960s. These technologies offer potential advantages compared to traditional aqueous separations including: compactness, resistance to radiation effects, criticality control benefits, compatibility with advanced fuel types, and ability to produce low purity products. This paper will summarize the status of electrochemical development and demonstration activities with used nuclear fuel, including preparation of associated high-level waste forms.
