The technique of Brightness Temperature Difference (BTD) between 11 and $12{\mu}m$ separates yellow sand dust from clouds according to the difference in absorptive characteristics between the channels. However, this method causes consistent false alarms in many cases, especially over the desert. In order to reduce these false alarms, we should eliminate the background noise originated from surface. We adopted the Background BTD (BBTD), which stands for surface characteristics on clear sky condition without any dust or cloud. We took an average of brightness temperatures of 11 and $12{\mu}m$ channels during the previous 15 days from a target date and then calculated BTD of averaged ones to obtain decontaminated pixels from dust. After defining the BBTD, we subtracted this index from BTD for the Yellow Sand Index (YSI). In the previous study, this method was already verified using the geostationary satellite, MTSAT. In this study, we applied this to the polar orbiting satellite, MODIS, to detect yellow sand dust over Northeast Asia. Products of yellow sand dust from OMI and MTSAT were used to verify MODIS YSI. The coefficient of determination between MODIS YSI and MTSAT YSI was 0.61, and MODIS YSI and OMI AI was also 0.61. As a result of comparing two products, significantly enhanced signals of dust aerosols were detected by removing the false alarms over the desert. Furthermore, the discontinuity between land and ocean on BTD was removed. This was even effective on the case of fall. This study illustrates that the proposed algorithm can provide the reliable distribution of dust aerosols over the desert even at night.

Photovoltaic systems are progressively attached importance and their installed capacity increases day by day because of their reliability, decremented installation and operating cost and simple construction structure. Generated power obtained from a photovoltaic system changes depending upon regional distinctness, and It can be estimated approximately by taking into consideration mean global radiation amount, temperature and humidity. However, there may be different regional negative or positive factors like dust, air pollution, desert powder which affect generated power. The best reliable data for a region can be obtained from the existing photovoltaic system in the region. For this purpose, a monitoring system for 1000W monocrystalline photovoltaic system constructed at Kocaeli University Uzunciftlik Nuh Cimento Vocational High Scholl is prepared. The installed monitoring system shows and records real values generated from the photovoltaic system and environmental data. In the study, Instantaneous data obtained from the monitoring system for October 2018 and 7th October 2018 is given within figures. Additionally, daily and monthly total energy productions of the photovoltaic system are given for October 2018 and date interval between July 2018 and March 2018, respectively.

Balanites Aegyptiaca 씨기름으로부터 바이오 디젤유를 생산하고 기름 품질 및 생분해성을 조사하였다. 비중, 밀도와 인화점은 각기 0.897, 0.89 g/$cm^3$ and $163^{\circ}C$이었다. 이 바이오 디젤유는 $D_2$ 디젤유(27.02%, 27.33%)에 비해 월등하게 82.58%, 86.98% 생분해 되었다.

자외선, 가시광, 적외선 파장대역의 채널을 갖는 위성 관측에 기반한 다양한 에어로졸 정보산출 알고리즘에 대해 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 최근 발사된 일본 기상위성 히마와리 8의 가시광-적외선 채널정보를 이용하여, 어두운 지표 위에서 에어로졸 광학정보를 산출하였다. 가시영역을 이용한 에어로졸 광학정보 산출은 지표신호의 정확한 제거가 매우 중요한데, 이는 최소반사도법을 사용하여 산출하였다. 본 알고리즘은 어두운 지표에서 에어로졸 광학정보를 산출을 하기에 구름, 사막 등과 같은 밝은 지표 위에서는 산출하지 않는다. AHI는 가시광채널 외에도, 다양한 적외 채널을 갖고 있어 공간 비균질성, 밝기온도차이(Brightness Temperature Difference, BTD) 등을 이용하여 구름제거가 가능하다. 밝기온도(Brightness Temperature, BT)를 이용해 하층운, 상층운 제거에 유리한 채널을 사용하여 구름을 제거하게 된다. Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) 산출 결과로는 상관계수가 0.7, 기대오차(Expected Error, EE) 안에 있는 비율이 49%를 나타내고 있으며, 낮은 AOD에서도 정확한 산출이 이뤄지고 있음을 보이고 있다. 다만 베이징 허베이 지역에서는 에어로졸 광학두께를 과소모의하는 경향이 있는데, 이는 최소반사도법을 이용한 지표정보 산출이 실제 지표반사도보다 높게 지표면 정보를 추정하게 되기 때문으로 추정된다.
