세계 각국은 폐기물의 발생과 이의 처리를 위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 폐기물 중 특히 폐알칼리는 부식성으로 인해 환경오염에 대한 위험성이 높기 때문에 효율적 관리를 통해 재활용되어야 하며, 이를 위해 재활용 생성물에 대한 품질기준에 따라 관리될 필요가 있다. 그러나 현재 품질관리가 필요한 대상물질에 대한 국내 자료가 전혀 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최근 5년간의 자료 분석과 현장방문을 통해 체계적인 관리가 필요한 폐알칼리 재활용 대상물질을 선정하였다. 그 결과 재활용 대상 주요물질은 가성소다, 황산알루미늄, 폴리염화알루미늄인 것으로 나타났다. 장차 국가적 차원에서 이들 주요물질에 대한 적절한 관리체계가 구축될 필요가 있는 것으로 판단되며, 이를 통하여 폐기물의 자원화 뿐 아니라 우리 주변의 환경오염을 막는 긍정적인 효과가 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구의 목적은 음식폐기물의 수거에 소요되는 인력과 장비를 파악할 수 있도록 수거요소를 분석하는데 두었다. 이를 위해 수거단계를 기능단위로 분류하고, 수거요소들은 현장조사를 통하여 분석하였다. 실측결과로부터 단계별 요소들을 산정한 결과, 단독주택 인력시간소요량의 경우 3.3인${\cdot}$시, 단독주택 운반속도의 경우 22.4km/시, 2.5톤 차량의 하차시간 5분 등의 산정이 가능하였다. 인력과 장비에 관한 여건을 동일하게 설정하고 2.5톤의 음식폐기물을 수거하는데 소요되는 지역유형별 수거시간을 산정한 결과, 아파트지역의 경우 1회의 수거에 3.03시간이 소요되었으며, 단독주택지역은 아파트지역보다 3배의 수거시간이 요구되었다. 본 연구에서는 1개 지역만을 대상으로 극히 작은 수거회수에 대해 조사한 결과이므로, 대표성 있는 수거요소들을 산정하려면 많은 후속 연구가 필요하다고 본다.

Since improper management practices of solid medical waste (SMW) could potentially result in serious health risks and environmental problems, it is very important to properly treat and dispose of the medical wastes. In this study, current practices of SMW management from storage to final disposal stage in 12 health care facilities (HCFs) of Burundi were investigated using the official government reports. The results showed that 75% and 92% of HCFs used uncovered wheelbarrows and trucks for on-site or off-site SMW transportation, respectively, indicating that most transportation equipment and waste workers are not safely protected. The results also showed that 92.8% of SMW (15,736.4 ton) from all 12 HCFs were inappropriately disposed of through uncontrolled land disposal and incineration. If pharmaceutical wastes and discarded medical plastics (29.5% of SMW) can be separated and treated properly, the treatment costs can be reduced and resource savings can be achieved. Raising awareness of healthcare workers and general public about potential health effects arising from improper SMW management, sufficient financial and human resources for the treatment facilities (especially incinerators), and effective regulations and guidelines for transportation and treatment of SWM are some of the major tasks for safe and sustainable medical waste management in Burundi.

Nepal is one of the least urbanized countries in the world where more than 80% of the total population live in rural areas. In recent years, the rate of urbanization became rampant which ultimately accelerated immense pressure on municipal services, especially on managing the ever increasing amount of wastes. Due to lack of technology, infrastructure and financial capacity management of increasing amount of solid waste has become a major challenge in municipalities of Nepal. The indiscriminate dumping of solid wastes already affected the urban environment by creating a serious occupational health and environmental hazard to the vicinity of the dumping sites. However, there is great possibility of recovering methane from the landfill sites since the typical Nepalese municipal solid waste contains more than 65% of organic wastes. Despite having enormous potential of generating electricity from hydropower, Nepal is facing acute shortage of energy. Therefore, comprehensive scientific research and development is necessary for making solid waste to environmentally friendly by converting waste to the energy.

This paper considers remanufacturing planning problems under deterministic environments. As increasing the environmental pressures in manufacturing, various methods for reducing wasted or postponing the time to be waste are considered. This paper considers remanufacturing planning problems on a single facility, where the wastes(or used products) are remanufactured to satisfy the given demand on the remanufactured products. The objective is to find the optimal remanufacturing and purchasing planning of the wastes which minimize total cost subject to satisfaction all the given demand on the remanufactured products. Two problems that the amount of wastes is a given constant or a decision variable are considered, respectively. For the problems, the extreme point solutions are characterized, and dynamic programming algorithms are developed with numerical examples.

Purpose: This study was to provide baseline data to arrange systematic management for the infectious waste. Methods: This data was collected by self-reported questionnaires from a total of 419 subjects, ie nurses, nurse's aides and laboratory technicians working at a university hospital located in G city. The collected data were analyzed by t-test or ANOVA, Tukey test, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 12.0. Results: The knowledge of the infectious waste was statistically significant in type of staff and level of education. Attitude was statistically significant in type of staff, age group, level of education, working period, and marital status. And also the practice of the subject was statistically significant in type of staff, age group, education level, the working periods, and marital status. There was positive association between attitude and practice(r=.63, ${\rho}$< 001). By means of multiple stepwise regression analysis, total variance explained by the attitude towards infectious wastes, single employee, and the working periods less than ten years was 44% of the practice of infectious wastes. Conclusion: An educational program focusing on strategy to change employee's attitude can be effective for building a well-organized management system.

The water quality in the rural areas is degrading due to a variety of causes such as the increase of the urban sewage and industrial wastes, the disposal of solid wastes, the growth of livestock waste, the growth of leisure facilities, the establishment of agricultural industry estates and etc. The water pollutants are scarce while the effluent is increasing from wide scattered sources. The technology specifically designed for the rural wastes water treatment plant needs to be implemented with improvement of agricultural water quality. 1. An integrated management measures against water pollution sources. The prevention of water pollution is the best measures in the environmental pollution. Hence, the most effective measures needs to be against the sources. Small-scale water treatment plants needs to be constructed in each village in the rural areas. As for the industrial effluent, the effluent discharge needs to be strictly monitored. Government subsidy for the establishment of treatment plant for livestock wastes is necessary. 2. The establishment of national-wide network for agricultural water quality. The network for agricultural water quality have been operated to conserve the agricultural water quality, and to develop management policies by the assessment of water pollution in the rural areas. The results of agricultural water quality network indicates that the water quality is degrading not only around urban areas but also in the distant rural areas, and the water quality at the pumping stations and weirs is worse than that of reservoirs. 3. The legal, systematic, and technical approaches for the agricultural water quality management. The actions currently implemented for the improvement of agricultural water quality involve temporary measures such as the improvement of irrigation facilities. These contingency measures are not effective in the long-term, and sometimes bring secondary pollution. Therefore, integrated measures covering the whole water environment such as the flow, quality, river morphology, aquatic ecosystem, and the surrounding environment, need be invented and implemented. Besides, the legal, systematic, and technical frameworks for the management are not fully established so far. The technology for the treatment of rural water pollution should be refined afterwards, and the research for the development of rural waste water treatment plant should be carried out.

This study aims to make detail examination of smallholder dairy farming systems in the Nongpho Dairy Cooperative. Forty-three dairy farms were selected from three geographical areas i.e. irrigated area, municipality area, and factory area. Within each area some number of sample farms were selected from each of the three levels of farm and animal crowdedness (very crowded, crowded, and not crowded farms). Detail data were collected during 1996 to 1997, they were socio-economic conditions of the sample farms and farmers, dairy production systems and management of resources (animals, bam, feeds, stocking rates, herd structure, animal body conditions, milk yield and milk quality, manure and farm wastes management, and other related items). Detail information useful for the improvement of farm production efficiency were discussed. It was very clear that much improvement of smallholder dairy production can be achieved if the recommendations given by this study were implemented.
