Comparison of Carbon Dioxide Emission Structure in Korea-Japan

Carbon Dioxide Emission Standards

On June 25, 2013, President Obama announced his plan to introduce carbon dioxide emission standards for electricity generation. This paper proposes an efficiency analysis approach that addresses which emission rates (and standards) would be feasible if the existing generating units adopt best practices. A new efficiency measure is introduced and further decomposed to identify different sources’...

Multi-objective optimization of time-cost-quality-carbon dioxide emission-plan robustness in construction projects

Today, the construction industry is facing intense competition and success in this competition depends on several factors. Project managers try to minimize project time and cost, carbon dioxide emission and at the same time maximizing the quality of project and its plan robustness. In this paper, study construction project scheduling considering a discrete trade-off between time, cost, quality,...

Carbon Dioxide Emission Scenarios for the Usa

A model of carbon dioxide emissions of the USA is presented. The model consists of population, income per capita, economic structure, final and primary energy intensity per sector, primary fuel mix, and emission coefficients. The model is simple enough to be calibrated to observations since 1850. The model is used to project emissions until 2100. Best guess carbon dioxide emissions are in the m...

Current Aspects of Carbon Dioxide Fixation by Microalgae in Korea

The carbon dioxide fixation by microalgae has several merits such as the COz recovery and the production of useful chemicals. Since the flue gas from a industry has some unfavorable conditions such a s high CQ concentration and toxic chemicals like SO., NO, contained in flue gas for the cultivation of m s t microalgae, it is important to apply a suitable strain of microalgae for the fixation of...
