The study aims to assess factors affecting intention to purchase green products in Vietnam. The study employs samples from customers who have actually experienced green consumption in Vietnam. The samples were collected by convenient sampling methods. The survey obtained 206 responses with full information. The survey was conducted from October 2019 to January 2020. The measurement scale was a 5-point scale with 1- completely disagree and 5- strongly agree. This study employs factor analysis and structural equation modelling analysis. The results showed that the social and environment sustainability awareness have positive effects on altruism of customers who are interested in green consumption. Altruism also has the same direction on green purchase intention. Besides, the attitude toward buying green and health consciousness affects green purchase intention. At the same time, the altruism and attitude towards buying green products also influence positively on green purchase intention. Besides, the health consciousness positively affects attitude towards buying green products. The results show that the health consciousness has a negative impact on intention to purchase green products. The findings suggest that it is necessary to raise customers' health consciousness, customers' altruism from disseminating knowledge about environmental protection as well as society to enhance the green consumption in Vietnam.

With the mounting concerns over environmental issues, green construction is gaining a place in the global construction industry. However, rare research has been conducted to analyze green construction projects, especially in the aspect of project schedule performance. As a result, this study aims to investigate the degree of project delay in green building construction, analyze the factors affecting schedule delay of green building projects, and finally provide recommendations to improve schedule performance of green building project. To achieve the objectives, a comprehensive literature review was carried out, followed by a survey conducted with 30 companies that provided data from 220 traditional and 96 green building projects. The analysis of the responses identified that 15.9% of the traditional building projects were delayed while 32.3% of the green building projects were completed behind schedule. Furthermore, the amount of the delays in green building projects was an average of 4.8% of their planned schedule. The top 5 critical factors that can cause delay in green building projects were identified as: (1) speed of decision-making by clients; (2) speed of decision-making involving all project teams; (3) communication/coordination between key parties; (4) level of experience of consultants; and (5) difficulties in contractors' project financing. Lastly, a list of recommendations was introduced, aiming to reduce schedule delay in green building construction projects based on the observations. This study will serve as s a base for further research on the enhancement of green building project schedule performance.

최근 주요 선진국을 중심으로 환경규제가 전면적으로 확대되어가고 있다. 특히 작년 발효된 REACH(Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) 제도의 경우 우리나라의 주요 수출품이 모두 규제 대상 물품이 될 수 있기 때문에 환경규제에 대한 대응이 미흡할 경우 수출중심의 우리나라 경제에 결정적인 타격이 예상 된다. 그러므로 본고에서는 산업경쟁력 유지 및 지속가능성의 확보를 위한 기반을 마련하고자 REACH에 대한 전반적인 이해와 더불어 최근 REACH의 준비 및 현황에 대해 조사하였으며, 현재 기업 및 정부대응의 문제점을 짚어보고 REACH 관련 전문가들의 수렴된 의견을 통해 정책을 제언하고자 하였다.

The impervious area on the surface of urban area has been increased as buildings and artificial land cover have continually been increased. Urban development has gradually decreased the green zone in downtown and alienated the city from the natural environment on outskirt area devastating the natural ecosystem. There arise the environmental problems to urban area including urban heat island phenomenon, urban flood, air pollution and urban desertification. As one of urban plans to solve such problems, green roof system is attracting attentions. The purpose of this study was to investigate flood discharge and heat reduction effect according to the green roof system and to quantify effect by analyzing through simulation water and heat cycle before and after green roof system. For the analysis, Distributed hydrologic model, WEP (Water and Energy transfer Processes) and WEP+ model were used. WEP was developed by Dr. Jia, the Public Works Research Institute in Japan (Jia et al., 2005), which can simulate water and heat cycle of an urban area with complex land uses including calculation of spatial and temporal distributions of water and heat cycle components. The WEP+ is a visualization and analysis system for the WEP model developed by Korea Institute of Construction Technology (KICT).

친환경 건축물에 사용되는 미네랄울, 폴리우레탄 등 전통적인 단열재로부터 최근에 주목받고 있는 VIP (Vacuum Insulation Panel), 에어로젤, 그리고 미래기술로 연구되고 있는 VIM (Vacuum Insulation Material), DIM (Dynamic Insulation Material) 등 단열재 및 단열 시스템의 특성과 장단점을 비교하였다. 매우 낮은 열전도율을 지닌 VIP 및 에어로젤은 기존 단열재에 비해 에너지 소모를 줄일 수 있으므로 주거면적을 크게 확대할 수 있는 장점이 있으며, 특히 에어로젤은 반투명 및 투명재질로 만들 수 있어 건물에 응용될 수 있는 가능성이 매우 크다. 단열재는 낮은 열전도율뿐만 아니라, 건설현장 응용성, 기계적강도, 내화성, 비용 및 환경영향 등을 고려하여야 하므로, 전통적인 단열재 및 최신 단열재를 활용하고 지속적으로 개선시키는 노력을 해야 할 것이다.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have caused many microbiological incidents in the brewing industry, resulting in severe economic loss. Meanwhile, traditional culturing method for detecting LAB are time-consuming for brewers. The present review introduces LAB as spoilage microbes in daily life, with focus on LAB in the brewing industry, targeting at the spoilage mechanism of LAB in brewing industry including the special metabolisms, the exist of the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state and the hop resistance. At the same time, this review compares the traditional and novel rapid detection methods for these microorganisms which may provide innovative control and detection strategies for preventing alcoholic beverage spoilage, such as improvement of microbiological quality control using advanced culture media or different isothermal amplification methods.

전 세계 산림 면적이 여전히 감소하고 있는 가운데 산림을 포함한 육상생태계의 보전은 지구 공동체가 함께 달성해야 할 지속가능발전목표 중 하나로 이를 달성하기 위한 국제사회의 적극적인 노력이 요구된다. 공적개발원조 사업의 대상국은 전통적으로 국가이익을 고려하여 결정되었으나 최근 글로벌 규범인 지속가능발전목표가 국내의 공적개발원조 전략에 내재화됨에 따라 산림 부문 ODA 대상국 탐색이 다각적으로 이루어질 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 산림 파괴가 심한 개도국을 대상으로 기후변화 대응, 생물다양성 보전, 사막화 방지 측면에서 국가의 경제·사회·환경 부문의 이행 준비 및 필요성을 분석하여 '그린 ODA'에 충족될 수 있는 협력 대상국을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 기존의 산림 협력이 중점적으로 이루어진 아시아 국가에서 나아가 남아메리카와 아프리카 국가로 산림 협력의 확대가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 식량·에너지·수자원·산불 등 산림 전용요인의 근본적인 해결을 위하여 녹색기술과의 융·복합을 추진하고 사업 활동과 재원, 참여자의 다각화를 통해 산림분야 양자 ODA를 확대하는 방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 산림 부문 양자 협력 대상국 범위를 확대하는데 있어 산림 파괴가 진행 중인 전 세계 국가를 대상으로 장기적인 전략 수립을 위한 기초 정보를 제공하는데 기여할 수 있다.

Cognitive radio technology is still the key technology of future mobile communication systems. Previous studies have focused on improving spectrum utilization and less energy consumption. In this paper, we propose an Overhead Reduced Scheme (ORS) for green cooperative spectrum sensing. Compared to traditional cooperative sensing scheme, ORS scheme divides the sensing time into three time slots and selects the best multi-mode user to report decisions. In consideration of reporting channel deviation, we derive closed-form expressions for detection probability and false alarm probability of ORS scheme based on Rayleigh fading channel. Simulation results show that ORS scheme can improve the perception accuracy while reducing the perceived delay and energy consumption in the process of perception, so as to realize the green communication.
