In compare with a major developed countries, Korea consumes much energy, but also eliminates much carbon dioxide. Agricultural sector eliminate much carbon dioxide than industrial sector. In Kyoto protocol, Korea needs to reduce carbon dioxide. One way to reduce carbon dioxide is utilization of biomass in rural area. This paper focus on utilization of biomass in rural area. If use 20% potential amount of biomass, it obtain 50% of TPES on agricultural sector. The condition of utilization biomass is connected with agricultural policy, environmental policy, and energy policy. And environmental restriction keep pace with economical incentive.

The first part of the study involved calculating emission factors from electricity production. The second part of the study aimed to analyze perceptions of the concept of carbon dioxide utilization and was conducted through a questionnaire survey with participants from Almaty and Astana. The results showed that there were no significant improvements in the decrease of carbon dioxide emissions between 2017 and 2020. Almost no change occurred in the rate of carbon dioxide emission throughout the course of the four years. According to the results of the survey, a number of respondents had reservations about the feasibility of using carbon dioxide utilization as a solution to tackle climate change. They felt that this technology would only offer a temporary solution to carbon emissions, without addressing the underlying causes of the problem. Despite these concerns, the participants acknowledged that carbon dioxide utilization had certain advantages in promoting sustainability.

Environmental conservation has become one of the greatest concerns of all the people in the world. This issue is related to wood utilization in two major view points such as carbon dioxide emitted by the use of manufacturing energy and absorbed during the growth of trees. Wood construction materials require less manufacturing energy, which, in turn, means less carbon dioxide emission. In addition, wood keeps absorbed carbon in itself as far as it is not burnt. Therefore, wood is environmentally superior to other materials in terms of potential effects on atmospheric carbon dioxide. As examples of the environmental effect of wood utilization, the following two results were obtained: 1) If wood construction becomes popular in Korea as in Japan, more than 24% of carbon dioxide emission during construction of residential housings can be reduced: and 2) If aluminum windows are substituted by wood windows, more than 19% of carbon dioxide emission can be reduced. If the principle of "cut and plant" is kept well, wood is the best construction material for environmental protection as well as human residence.

온실 가스의 주원인인 이산화탄소 발생의 저감은 범세계적으로 중요한 문제가 되었다. 이산화탄소를 단순히 분리하고 외부와 격리시키는 것보다는 이를 이용하여 고부가가치의 화학제품으로 전환 가능하다는 점에서 이산화탄소의 자원화에 대해 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이산화탄소의 촉매 전환을 통한 합성가스 생산의 방법으로서 이산화탄소 개질, 삼중 개질 그리고 내부 개질 고체 산화형 연료 전지(Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) 시스템과 연계하여 전기와 합성가스를 동시에 생산하는 기술로 정하고 이에 대한 최근 연구 동향을 정리하였다. 또한 합성가스로부터 Fischer-Tropsch 합성을 통한 장쇄 탄화수소 생성과 Dimethyl Ether(DME) 생성을 중심으로 한 유용한 화학제품을 생산에 관한 연구 동향을 포함하였다.

In this study, the characteristics of cement were analyzed using carbon dioxide microbubble water as a mixed water for mineral carbonation of cement materials. Carbon dioxide reacts with the calcium compound of cement to produce calcium carbonate and affects the initial strength improvement. Therefore, in this study, temperature, air content, thermal analysis, and compressive strength tests were conducted to confirm the reaction between cement materials and carbon dioxide. As a result of the measurement, the reaction between cement and carbon dioxide was confirmed in a specimen using carbon dioxide microbubble water as a mixed water, which affected the initial strength improvement.

Continuous global warming is causing ecosystem destruction and direct damage to human life. The main cause of global warming is greenhouse gases, which account for more than 90 % of carbon dioxide. The leaders of each country signed the Paris Agreement at the United Nations Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, the total amount of CO₂ emitted from South Korea is 664.7 million tons as of 2018, ranking eighth in the world. 37 % of South Korea's total CO₂ emissions come from the construction & building field, especially the cement production, which is a construction material. Carbon reduction technologies can be largely divided into four types: carbon reduction (CC), carbon reduction and storage technology (CCS), carbon reduction and utilization technology (CCU), and carbon reduction, storage and utilization technology (CCUS). Overseas, CCUS technology is mainly applied to reduce and store CO₂ emitted from construction and construction field. A technology for permanently storing CO₂ through mineralization by capturing CO₂ and utilizing CO₂ into a cement production process was developed, and this technology is applied to the entire cement industry. However, the development of CCUS technology applicable to the cement industry is still insignificant in South Korea. In this study, carbon dioxide reduction technology and methods for reducing carbon dioxide emitted during the cement manufacturing process, which is the main component of concrete mainly used in civil engineering construction, were investigated. Overseas, it has reached the commercialization stage beyond the demonstration stage as a way to reduce carbon dioxide by vomiting carbonation reactions. Accordingly, if carbon dioxide reduction plan technology generated during cement manufacturing is developed based on domestic technology differentiated from foreign technology, it is expected to contribute one more step to the carbon neutrality policy.

Global warming due to greenhouse gases is an issue of great concern today. Fossil fuel power plants, especially coal-fired thermal power plants, are a major source of carbon dioxide emission. In this work, carbon capture and utilization using sodium hydroxide was studied experimentally. Application for flue gas of a coal-fired power plant is considered. Carbon dioxide, reacting with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, could be converted to sodium bicarbonate ($NaHCO_3$). A bench-scale unit of a reactor system was designed for this experiment. The capture scale of the reactor system was 2 kg of carbon dioxide per day. The detailed operational condition could be determined. The purity of produced sodium bicarbonate was above 97% and the absorption rate of $CO_2$ was above 95% through the experiment using this reactor system. The results obtained in this experiment contain useful information for the construction and operation of a commercial-scale plant. Through this experiment, the possibility of carbon capture for coal power plants using sodium hydroxide could be confirmed.

탄소광물화 기술은 석탄재와 이산화탄소를 반응시켜 건설재료 등으로 활용이 가능한 복합탄산염 등의 부산물을 생산함과 동시에 이산화탄소를 탄산염에 고정화하여 온실가스 감축효과를 얻을 수 있는 기술로, 이산화탄소 감축 및 경제적 잠재력을 고려하면 국가 온실가스 감축 목표를 실현하기 위한 유용한 방안이 될 수 있다. 그러나 아직까지는 해당 기술의 이산화탄소 감축 성능과 환경적인 이점, 경제성 등에 대한 자료가 적어서 기술의 상용화 가능성에 대해서는 명확하지 않은 상태이다. 본 연구는 국내 순환유동층 발전소에서 발생되는 이산화탄소와 석탄재를 이용하는 이산화탄소 투입량 기준 6,000 tonCO₂/년 규모의 탄소광물화 설비에 대해 이산화탄소 감축량 및 경제성 분석을 수행했다. 공정 분석 결과 1톤의 복합탄산염 생산 시 실질적인 이산화탄소 감축량은 약 45.8 kgCO₂eq, 연간 약 805.3 tonCO₂로 산정되었으며, 경제적 편익 분석 시 비용편익분석비(B/C Ratio)는 1.04, 내부수익률(IRR)은 10.65 %, 순현재가치(NPV)는 24,713,465 원으로 나타나, 탄소광물화 설비가 어느 정도 경제성을 확보하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

산업 발달로 화석 연료 사용이 급증하고 이에 따른 지구 온난화 문제와 자원 고갈 문제가 대두되어 지속 성장을 위협하고 있다. 따라서 지속 성장을 위해서 두 문제를 모두 해결하여야 한다. 현재 이산화탄소의 처리 방법으로 인식되고 있는 이산화탄소 포집 및 저장 기술(carbon capture and sequestration, CCS)의 환경 논란으로 인해 사후 처리 기술의 필요성이 커지고 있다. 이에 해결책중 하나로 부각되고 있는 이산화탄소 포집 및 재활용 기술(carbon capture and utilization, CCU)에 대해서 알아보았다. 이산화탄소 전환 기술은 이산화탄소 배출량 감소에 따른 지구 온난화 문제의 해결 뿐 아니라 탄소원의 재활용이란 측면에서 자원고갈 문제의 해결책으로 제시될 수 있겠다. 이산화탄소 전환 기술은 기상 전환과 액상 전환으로 나눌 수 있으며 기상 전환의 경우 필요 에너지 공급원과 온화한 반응조건에서 전환이 이뤄져야 하고 저에너지 소비 생성물 분리 정제 기술의 개발이 필요하다. 액상 전환의 경우, 반응 속도를 높일 수 있는 촉매 및 광감응제 개발과 함께 촉매, 빛, 전기의 혼성 시스템의 개발이 요구되어진다. 이산화탄소 전환 기술은 신재생 에너지 및 바이오산업의 경쟁력 향상을 위한 연결 기술로 그 가치가 매우 크다.
