Abstract

In this study, municipal solid waste (MSW) has collected 3 times and physico-chemical analysis has done. Nitrous oxide emissions from MSW incineration plant were measured continuously by EPA Method 18 and it was compared with the emission by calculation using the emission factor. The $N_2O$ emission of MSW incineration plant was more than twice as large as the emission by calculation. It was found that the installation of abatement facilities in MSW incineration plant is effective in achieving the greenhouse reduction targets and it can be ensure economical efficiency through emission trading system.

본 연구에서는 도시고형폐기물 소각시설을 대상으로 3회에 걸쳐 도시고형폐기물을 수거하여 폐기물의 성상 및 물리화학적 조성을 조사하였다. 또한 소각시설에서 배출되는 $N_2O$를 연속적으로 측정하여 발생량을 조사하였으며, IPCC에서 제시한 폐기물의 온실가스 배출량 산정방법으로 산출된 발생량과 비교하였다. 도시고형폐기물 소각시설에서 발생하는 $N_2O$ 발생량은 IPCC 산출방법에 의한 발생량보다 2배 이상 크게 조사되었다. 도시고형폐기물 소각시설에서 $N_2O$ 저감설비가 도입될 경우 온실가스 저감목표를 만족하기 용이하고, 탄소배출권 거래제도를 활용하여 경제적인 효과도 발생할 수 있는 것으로 조사되었다.
