Availability of reliable and affordable energy supply is a prerequisite for economic growth. Renewables are the third largest contributor to global electricity production after coal and natural gas and account for a share of 18%. Power generating capacity from renewables has increased to around 900GW by the year 2007. Today biodiesel fuels have been in commercial use in many countries and recently the world-wide biodiesel market has experienced considerable growth, which is partly due to various tax concession programs and other financial incentives. In Korea, biodiesel has already been used for transportation fuel, but not used for power generation fuel yet Korean government has a strategy for renewable energy propagation, especially the goal of power generation amount by renewable energy is 3% of total power production by 2012. This paper focuses on the feasibility study for adaptability and strategy of using biodiesel as power generation fuel. The study also has the plan to replace the fuel of thermal power plant, gas turbine and distributed power system. As the increase of biodiesel fuel, I look forward to environment-friendly power generation and the strategy of Renewable Portfolio Standards(RPS).

1세대 바이오디젤인 fatty acid methyl ester(FAME)의 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 많은 연구가 진행 중 이다. 소위 차세대 바이오디젤은 triglyceride의 산소 화합물을 제거하여 정유 공정을 통해 생산된 디젤과 동일한 특성을 지닌 탄화수소로 전환시킨 오일이다. 이를 위하여 수소를 첨가하여 산소를 제거 시키는 Hydrodeoxygenation(HDO) 반응이 필요하다. 고온($300-400^{\circ}C$), 고압(50-100 bar)의 혹독한 조건에서 높은 수율과 안정성을 보이는 촉매 개발이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 반응물중의 산소를 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 산소 전달능이 뛰어난 $CeO_2$ 담체에 열안정성을 높이는 $ZrO_2$를 조합한 $Ce-ZrO_2$ 담체를 선정하였으며 수소첨가 탈산소 반응에 활성을 나타낼 것으로 예상되는 니켈을 활성성분으로 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 15%Ni-$Ce_{(1-x)}Zr_{(x)}O_2$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}1$)촉매를 공침법(co-precipitation)으로 제조하였으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 소성하였다. 촉매 특성분석은 XRD, BET, H2-TPR을 이용하였다.

Using numerical analysis, various factors influencing the performance development of high-pressure pumps for Dimethyl Ether (DME) engines were identified and the impact of each factor was evaluated using Taguchi method. DME fuels are more compressive than diesel fuels and have the lower heat generation, so it is necessary to increase the size of the plunger and speed (RPM) of the pump as well. In addition, it is necessary to change the shape and design of control valve to control the discharge flow and pressure. In this study, various variables affecting the performance and flow rate increase of high-pressure pumps for DME engines are planned using Taguchi method, and the best design method is proposed using correlation of the most important variables. As a result, we were able to provide the design value needed for a six-liter engine and provide optimal conditions. The best combination factors to optimize the flow rate at RPM 2,000 and diameter plunger with 20 mm. The regression equation can also be used to optimize the flow rate; -8, 13+0, 2552 RPM +54, 17 diam. Plunger.

To develop new varieties of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), the seeds of three varieties, 'Naehan', 'Tammi', and 'Halla' were irradiated with proton ion beams and gamma rays with 0 to 2,000 Gy. We had selected 9 lines in $M_5$ generation, and their useful characteristics were investigated by progressing from $M_6$ to $M_7$ generation for checking uniformity and stability. The 9 lines selected in $M_5$ generation were maintained their characteristics in terms of flowering date, maturing date, and plant height through $M_6$ to $M_7$ generations. Especially, 2 lines of NP600-1-1-198-2-1 and NP1000-13-2-362-4-1 selected in $M_5$ generation derived from 'Naehan' had characteristics of early maturity and shorter stem than original variety, and they also were maintained characteristic of early maturity such as 10~11 days earlier flowering date and 6~9 days earlier maturing date through $M_6$ to $M_7$ generations. For stem length, they showed characteristics of shorter stem in 2 lines of NP600-1-1-198-2-1 line and NP1000-13-2-362-4-1 line about 16%, 25% shorter stem than original variety respectively through $M_6$ to $M_7$ generations. Furthermore, some characteristics of 2 lines compared to the original variety were similar or higher in weight of 1,000 seeds, number of branches per plant, number of siliqua per panicle, number of seeds per silique, oil contents, and oleic acid contents. The line with large and plump flowers selected in $M_5$ generation also showed large and dark yellow flowers through $M_6$ to $M_7$ generations. The lines with High oleic acid and low saturated fatty acid contents selected in $M_5$ generation were maintained characteristics through $M_6$ to $M_7$ generation and these useful characteristics were expected for developing a new variety for bio diesel uses.
