Drivetrain electrification is an option to reduce tailpipe emissions by increasing energy conversion efficiency. To evaluate the vehicle's environmental impacts, it is necessary to consider the entire life cycle. In addition to the daily use, it is also necessary to include the impact of production and disposal. This study presents the comparative life cycle analysis of a parallel hybrid and a conventional heavy-duty truck in long-haul operation. Assuming a uniform vehicle glider, only the differing parts of both drivetrains are taken into account to calculate the environmental burdens of the production. The use phase is modeled by a backward simulation in MATLAB/Simulink considering a characteristic driving cycle. A break-even analysis is conducted to show at what mileage the larger CO2eq emissions due to the production of the electric drivetrain are compensated. The effect of parameter variation on the break-even mileage is investigated by a sensitivity analysis. The results of this analysis show the difference in CO2eq/t km is negative, indicating that the hybrid vehicle releases 4.34 g CO2eq/t km over a lifetime fewer emissions compared to the diesel truck. The break-even analysis also emphasizes the advantages of the electrified drivetrain, compensating the larger emissions generated during production after already a distance of 15,800 km (approx. 1.5 months of operation time). The intersection coordinates, distance, and CO2eq, strongly depend on fuel, emissions for battery production and the driving profile, which lead to nearly all parameter variations showing an increase in break-even distance.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StollenwerkKuvarakulKuperjans2013, author = {Stollenwerk, Dominik and Kuvarakul, T. and Kuperjans, Isabel}, title = {Renewable energy supply for power dominated, energy intense production processes - a systematic conversion approach for the anodizing process}, series = {IOP conference series: Earth and environmental science (EES)}, volume = {Vol. 16}, booktitle = {IOP conference series: Earth and environmental science (EES)}, number = {H. 1}, issn = {1755-1315}, pages = {012142/1 -- 012142/4}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StollenwerkRiekeDahmenetal.2016, author = {Stollenwerk, Dominik and Rieke, Christian and Dahmen, Markus and Pieper, Martin}, title = {Biogas Production Modelling : A Control System Engineering Approach}, series = {IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science.

Bromo and Mt. Raung in East Java, Indonesia, in 2015 perturbed volcanic materials and affected surface-layer air quality at surrounding locations. During the episodes, the volcanic ash from the eruptions influenced visibility, traffic accidents, flight schedules, and human health. In this research, the volcanic ash particles were collected and characterized by relying on the detail of physical observation. We performed an assessment of the volcanic ash elements to characterize the volcanic ash using two different methods which are aqua regia extracts followed by MP-AES and XRF laboratory test of bulk samples. The analysis results showed that the volcanic ash was mixed of many materials, such as Al, Si, P, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, and others. Fe, Si, Ca, and Al were found as the major elements, while the others were the trace elements Ba, Cr, Cu, Mn, P, Mn, Ni, Zn, Sb, Sr, and V with the minor concentrations. XRF analyses showed that Fe dominated the elements of the volcanic ash. The XRF analysis showed that Fe was at 35.40\% in Bromo and 43.00\% in Raung of the detected elements in bulk material. The results of aqua regia extracts analyzed by MP-AES were 1.80\% and 1.70\% of Fe element for Bromo and Raung volcanoes, respectively.}, language = {en} } @article{WernerGroebelKrumbeetal.2012, author = {Werner, Frederik and Groebel, Simone and Krumbe, Christoph and Wagner, Torsten and Selmer, Thorsten and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Baumann, Marcus and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Nutrient concentration-sensitive microorganism-based biosensor}, series = {Physica Status Solidi (a)}, volume = {209}, journal = {Physica Status Solidi (a)}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1862-6319}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201100801}, pages = {900 -- 904}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{WernerKrumbeSchumacheretal.2011, author = {Werner, Frederik and Krumbe, Christoph and Schumacher, Katharina and Groebel, Simone and Spelthahn, Heiko and Stellberg, Michael and Wagner, Torsten and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Selmer, Thorsten and Keusgen, Michael and Baumann, Marcus and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Determination of the extracellular acidification of Escherichia coli by a light-addressable potentiometric sensor}, series = {Physica status solidi (a) : applications and material science. 208 (2011), H. 6}, journal = {Physica status solidi (a) : applications and material science. 208 (2011), H. 6}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1862-6319}, pages = {1340 -- 1344}, year = {2011}, language = {en} }
