It was revealed that the Gas Measurement Group of the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science is spurring new research, including the development of real-time greenhouse gas flux calculation technology to improve the reliability of greenhouse gas emissions, the development of ozone precursor standard gases, the development of a standard method for exhaled gas, and the establishment of a measurement standard foundation for building a green energy ecosystem.

The Korea Standards Agency's Gas Measurement Group held the '21st Gas Analysis Measurement Club Workshop' at the Jeju Palace Hotel from the 5th to the 6th.

At this event, Jeong Jin-sang, head of the Gas Measurement Group at the Korea Standards Agency, introduced the main projects of the Korea Standards Agency and announced that they are researching the gas field related to climate change and carbon neutrality as a new research area.

First, regarding the real-time estimation technology for greenhouse gas flux, the government is currently updating the city gas inventory, but since this cycle is 1-2 years, there is a difficulty in having to wait at least 1-2 years to evaluate the reduction effect when each local government or the government implements a reduction policy. Therefore, it was revealed that a technique to estimate emissions in real time is being developed.

In addition, with regard to ozone, ozone continues to increase in China, but the domestic measurement base for reactive gases, which are key to ozone creation, is very weak, so a standard gas for volatile organic compounds is being developed, and through this, NHe mentioned that efforts are being made to improve the reliability of O2 and O3 measurements.

Regarding exhaled gas used for medical and self-clinical diagnosis, the goal is to collaborate with medical institutions to find exhaled gas biomicrobes according to disease, and to create a database based on that to develop a system that can provide information for sensor development.

Regarding green energy, he said that they are conducting basic research to develop the CCU process for producing blue hydrogen and standard gases for analyzing the purity of biogas, ammonia, and carbon dioxide, and to secure international publicity.

The Standard Gas Measurement Group establishes and maintains measurement standards related to industrial high-pressure gases, toxic gases, greenhouse gases, particulate matter, and gas isotope ratios, and disseminates measurement traceability through certified standard materials, calibration, and testing, and provides measurement solutions for domestic and international regulated substances.

Meanwhile, in this workshop, Professor Lee Sang-guk of Soongsil University presented on 'Prevention and Management Measures for Major Disasters', Dr. Oh Sang-hyeop of the Korea Institute of Standards and Technology presented on 'Development of Technology to Analyze Air-related Impurities in Special Gases for Semiconductors', Director Ji Deok-rim of the Future Standards Research Institute presented on 'High-Pressure Gas Safety Management', Researcher Park Gwang-ho of the National Agency for Technology and Standards presented on 'KOLAS Accreditation System', Researcher Kim Hyeong-seop of the National Institute of Environmental Research presented on 'Understanding the Environmental Measuring Equipment Accuracy Inspection and Calibration Product Certification System', Managing Director Kim Ki-dong of Deloitte presented on 'Domestic Industrial Gas Trends', Advisor Kim Gyu-hang of KC Industrial presented on 'Global Helium Market & Trends', and Officer Lee Chang-eon of the Chemical Safety Division of the Ministry of Environment presented on 'Understanding and Response Cases of Chemical Leakage Accidents'.
