研究室紹介
Professor Chang Guk Ryu's research lab specializes in sustainable energy conversion and materials chemistry, focusing on waste-to-energy technologies such as waste-to-energy (WtE) incineration, slow pyrolysis for char production, and advanced inorganic complexes for photophysical and electron transfer applications. The lab investigates energy recovery from municipal solid waste and biomass, emphasizing high-efficiency energy conversion, greenhouse gas reduction, and the development of functional metal complexes for optoelectronic and catalytic applications. Key research directions include thermal conversion of non-recyclable waste into usable energy carriers, characterization of pyrolysis-derived biochar, and the synthesis of polypyridyl and copper(I) complexes with tailored photophysical and electron transfer properties. The lab's work bridges environmental sustainability and inorganic materials science, aiming to develop practical solutions for renewable energy and waste management.

15Energy from waste (EfW) for nonrecyclable wastes is a suitable method of waste management and is important for renewable energy production. South Korea currently recycles 57% of household waste and landfills 26%. The remaining 17% is incinerated, mainly for heat production. In this study, the potential for energy production and reduction of corresponding greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW) in Korea was estimated without accounting for the lifecycle impact of waste man
Municipal solid waste (MSW) is an important energy resource for combined heat and power (CHP) production. This study summarized an overview of CHP by MSW to energy (WtE) plants in South Korea and discussed the issues related to energy efficiency improvement. Given the dominant housing culture of apartment living in South Korea, the primary energy output of WtE plants has been for district heating. In 2010, approximately half of the 51 large WtE plants were CHP, while the rest produced heat. Powe

Sustainable cities require the generation of energy from waste that cannot be economically reused or recycled. This study focuses on slow pyrolysis that can generate a high yield of char along with liquid and gas products from waste. Char is high in energy content, storable and transportable with low cost so that it can be used as an intermediate medium for high efficiency energy conversion. Pre-processed municipal waste pellets, wood and grass were pyrolysed in a batch type reactor for a final
