  • With the development of remote sensing technology, it becomes possible to measure the trace gas concentration by satellites, so the ministry of environment is executing 152.5 billion-won to develop the geostationary orbital environment monitoring satellite and ground segment. A variety of contents for the application to utilize environmental satellite has been sought to increase the benefits. This study is for the improvement the accuracy of emission inventories, to correct emission amount with top-down method using the satellite observing data instead of bottom-up method. Two methodologies to estimate $NO_2$ emission were analyzed, one is ignoring $NO_2$ transportation effect(method-1), and the other is considering transportation effect(method-2) with source-receptor relationship equation, and the results were compared. The methodology of this study can be applicable all components which are observed from satellites.

  • Agro-ecosystem plays an important role in the mitigation of atmospheric $CO_2$ concentration through photosynthesis and soil carbon fixation. The perennial crops have capacity of carbon accumulation because they have lived for years in the same position. Carbon dioxide fixation occurs in the fruit orchard by photosynthesis and soil carbon sequestration. The objectives of this review are to introduce the fruit orchard as a carbon dioxide sink and to summarize the methods that measure $CO_2$ flux in the orchard. There are three difference methods (chamber, biomass, and eddy covariance method) to measure $CO_2$ exchanges on sites. However, there is no standard method suitable for fruit cultivation condition in Korea. Thus the standard method have to be developed in order to exactly estimate the carbon accumulation. In foreign studies, the carbon assessments were conducted in apple, peach, olive, grape orchard and so on. On the other hand the estimation of $CO_2$ exchange was carried out for apple and mandarine orchard in Korea. According to these results, fruit orchard is a $CO_2$ sink even though amount of carbon accumulation is smaller than the forest. To introduce certainly fruit orchard as greenhouse gas sink, long-term monitoring and further study have to be conducted under each planting condition.

  • There is a growing interest in engine diagnostic technology for gas turbine engines. An engine simulation program, precisely simulating the engine performance, is required in order to apply it to the engine diagnosis technology for engine health monitoring. In particular, the simulation program can predict not only design point performance but also off-design point and partial load performance in accurate. So the engine simulation program for the 2-spool separate flow type turbofan engine was developed and the JT9D-7R4G engine of PW(Pratt & Whitney) was analyzed. The steady-sate performance analysis is conducted at both design and off-design points in flight path and the differences between analysis results of takeoff and cruise conditions are compared. The effect of Reynold's correction method was analyzed as a scaling method of the engine component performance. The simulation results was compared with NPSS.

  • The lakes' metabolism bears important information for the assessment of the carbon budget due to the accumulation or loss of carbon in the lake as well as the dynamics of the food webs through primary production. A lake-scale metabolism is evaluated by Gross Primary Production (GPP), Ecosystem Respiration (R), and Net Ecosystem Production (NEP), which is the difference between the first two values. Methods for estimating GPP and R are based on the levels carbon and oxygen. Estimation of carbon is expensive because of the use of radioactive materials which requires a high degree of proficiency. The purpose of this study was to estimate Lake Daecheong ecosystem metabolism using high frequency water temperature data and DO measurement sensor, widely utilized in the field of water quality monitoring, and to evaluate the possibility of using the application method. High frequency data was collected at intervals of 10 minutes from September to December 2017 by installing a thermistor chain and a DO sensor in downstream of Daechung Dam. The data was then used to estimate GPP, R and NEP using the R public program LakeMetabolizer, and other metabolism models (mle, ols, kalman, bookkeep). Calculations of gas exchange coefficient methods (cole, crusius, heiskanen, macIntyre, read, soloviev, vachon) were compared. According to the result, Lake Daecheong has some deviation based on the application method, but it was generally estimated that the NEP value is negative and acts as a source of atmospheric carbon in a heterotrophic system. Although the high frequency sensor data used in this study had negative and positive GPP and R values during the physical mixing process, they can be used to monitor real-time metabolic changes in the ecosystem if these problems are solved.

  • The emission characteristics and emission factors were determined by measuring the concentration of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), the amount of ventilation, etc. in the two fattening rooms which have the same environment in winter. As a result of monitoring, the average concentration of CH4 and N2O was 20.7-26.7 ppm and 1.4-1.6 ppm. The average temperature inside the room was measured at 20.0-21.4℃, and the average ventilation was 1345.4-1567.3 m3/h. The daily emission of CH4 for the first 30 days showed a constant emission of 3.6-8.2 g/d/m2/pig, but thereafter, the emission increased rapidly. The daily emission of N2O was 0.7-1.3 g/d/m2/pig, showing stable emission during the test period, and relatively insignificant emission compared to the emission of CH4. After repeated test, it was confirmed that there was no significant difference between the two rooms. As a result, the CH4 6. 21 g/d/m2/pig and N2O 1.02 g/d/m2/pig average emission for each room was derived.

  • SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) systems are widely used for control and monitoring of critical infrastructures including electricity, gas and transportation. Any compromise in the security of SCADA systems could result in massive chaos and disaster at a national level if a malicious attacker takes the control of the system. Therefore, sound countermeasures must be provided when the SCADA systems are being developed as well as when they are being operated. Unlike general information processing system, SCADA systems have different service responses, communication protocols and network architectures and therefore a different approach should be applied to each SCADA systems that takes into consideration of each system's security characteristics and architectures. In addition, legal basis should be established to ensure the nationwide management of the systems security. This paper examines the vulnerabilites of SCADA systems and proposes action plans to protect the systems against cyber attacks.

  • Cholesterol is an essential component for maintaining health; however, excessive consumption can lead to diseases. Thus, continuous monitoring of cholesterol content is important in food research. The cholesterol analysis method used in Korea follows the Korean Food Standards Codex. As this method uses gas chromatography, derivatization of the sample is required, and analysis time is more than 30 min. Kim developed a new method using liquid chromatography; however saponification by the non-heat saponification method is insufficient. To address these limitations, a new cholesterol analysis method was developed and verified. The correlation coefficients for the cholesterol standard (STD) were maintained above 0.99. The limit of detection and limit of quantitation of cholesterol STD were 2.41 ㎍/mL and 7.31 ㎍/mL, respectively. The accuracies for cholesterol were 92.21-99.02%. The developed analytical method was also verified using three standard reference materials, and their accuracies were 93.71-97.09%. In addition, the cholesterol content of fishes was analyzed, and the values were compared with those recorded by the United States Department of Agriculture. Our results suggest that this method could be used as a new analytical method for cholesterol in seafood.

  • In these proceedings, we will address the problem of air pollution on the premises of the Cement factory SHARRCEM L.L.C. in Hani Elezit in the Republic of Kosovo respectively around the clinker cooler, rotary kiln, and raw material mill. By air pollution, we mean the introduction of chemicals, particles, or other harmful materials into the atmosphere which in one way or another causing damage to the development of plants and organisms. Air pollution occurs when certain substances are released into the air, which depending on the quantitative level, can be harmful to human health, animals, and the environment in general. The analysis of air shows the influence of the extractive and processing industry on the chemical composition of air. Parameters analyzed though under control such as the case of carbon dioxide, due to the increasing production capacity of cement, the production of hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of CO2 gas made CO2 production a concern. With the purchase of the latest technology by the SHARCEM Factory in Hani Elezit, the amount of air pollution has been reduced and the allowed parameters of environmental pollution have been kept under control. Air pollutants are introduced into the atmosphere from various sources which change the composition of the atmosphere and affect the biotic environment.The concentration of air pollutants depends not only on the quantities that are emitted from the sources of air pollution but also on the ability of the atmosphere to absorb or disperse these emissions. Sources of air pollutants include vehicles, industry, indoor sources, and natural resources. There are some natural pollutants, such as natural fog, particles from volcanic eruptions, pollen grains, bacteria, and so on.

  • With the recent development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, smartization technology is expanding to the fields of agriculture, livestock, and fisheries, and smartization is in progress. In this smart technology, the most important thing is how to measure the data in the field and transmit it to the management system. Currently, the sensors used in the construction of smart farms and other livestock houses and farms are measuring and monitoring smart farms and other environmental conditions through various sensors such as temperature, humidity, CO gas, CO2, hydrogen, and O2. The communication method between these sensors and the HMI (Human Machine Interface) module that controls and manages the smart farm is still mainly using the RS-485-based modbus-RTU method. In this paper, we intend to design the MCU module for HMI so that various sensor modules can be connected to manage data through the RS-485-based Modbus method so that the sensor data required for smart farm construction can be managed by the HMI module.
