Laser desorption/ionization (LDI) mass spectrometry facilitated successful examinations of NOM, as humic and fulvic acids in NOM are readily ionized by the nitrogen laser. In this study, hydrophobic NOMs (HPO NOMs) from river, reservoir and waste water were characterized by this technique. The effect of analytical variables like concentration, solvent composition and laser energy was investigated. The exact masses of small molecular NOM moieties in the range of 200-1200 m/z were determined in reflectron mode. In addition, spectra of post-source-decay experiments in this range showed that some compounds from different natural NOMs had the same fragmental ions. In the large mass range of 1200-15 000 Da, macromolecules and their aggregates were found in HPO NOMs from natural waters. Highly humic HPO exhibited mass peaks larger than 8000 Da. On the other hand, the waste water and reservoir water mainly had relatively smaller molecules of about 2000 Da. The LDI-MS measurements indicated that highly humic river waters were able to form large aggregates and membrane foulants, while the HPO NOMs from waste water and reservoir water were unlikely to form large aggregates.

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{ElbersThomzik1990, author = {Elbers, Gereon and Thomzik, Manfred}, title = {Das Entstehen geruchsintensiver schwefelhaltiger organischer Verbindungen in Lackierereien und M{\"o}glichkeiten zu deren Vermeidung}, series = {Aus der T{\"a}tigkeit der LIS / Landesanstalt f{\"u}r Immissionsschutz des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen. 1989 (1990)}, journal = {Aus der T{\"a}tigkeit der LIS / Landesanstalt f{\"u}r Immissionsschutz des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen. 1989 (1990)}, isbn = {0931-5497}, pages = {35}, year = {1990}, language = {de} } @article{TurekKettererClassenetal.2007, author = {Turek, Monika and Ketterer, Lothar and Claßen, Melanie and Berndt, Heinz and Elbers, Gereon and Kr{\"u}ger, Peter and Keusgen, Michael and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Development and Electrochemical Investigations of an EIS-(Electrolyte-Insulator-Semiconductor) based Biosensor for Cyanide Detection}, series = {Sensors}, volume = {7}, journal = {Sensors}, number = {8}, isbn = {1424-8220}, pages = {1415 -- 1426}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{ElbersLehmann1985, author = {Elbers, Gereon and Lehmann, G.}, title = {Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Optical Absorption Spectra of VO2+ in CsCl Single Crystals}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Naturforschung / Section A, a journal of physical sciences. 40 (1985)}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Naturforschung / Section A, a journal of physical sciences. 40 (1985)}, isbn = {0932-0784}, pages = {511}, year = {1985}, language = {en} } @article{ElbersLehmann1985, author = {Elbers, Gereon and Lehmann, G.}, title = {Electron paramagnetic resonance of Vanadyl ion impurities in crystalline solids: A comment}, series = {Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids. 46 (1985), H. 6}, journal = {Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids. 46 (1985), H. 6}, isbn = {0022-3697}, pages = {761}, year = {1985}, language = {en} } @book{Elbers2004, author = {Elbers, Gereon}, title = {Entwicklung eines Schnellmessverfahrens zur Charakterisierung der Wirkung von Umweltschadstoffen auf Pflanzen mit der Nahinfrarot-Spektroskopie : Schlussbericht zum Forschungsvorhaben ; Vorhabensbezeichnung: Schnellmessverfahren zur Charakterisierung der Wirkung von Umweltschadstoffen ; Laufzeit des Vorhabens: 01.09.2002 bis 29.02.2004 ; Verl{\"a}ngerung der Laufzeit: 01.03.2004 bis 30.04.04 ; Berichtszeitraum: 01.09.2002 bis 30.04.2004 / Zuwendungsempf{\"a}nger: FH-Aachen, Abt.

Monitoring cleaning properties of exhaust air cleaning systems and to detect small but significant changes in emission characteristics during a fattening cycle is important for both emission and fattening process control. In the present study, we evaluated the potential of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) combined with chemometric techniques as a monitoring tool of exhaust air from poultry operation systems. To generate a high-quality data set for evaluation, the exhaust air of two poultry houses was sampled by applying state-of-the-art filter sampling protocols. The two stables were identical except for one crucial difference, the presence or absence of an exhaust air cleaning system. In total, twenty-one exhaust air samples were collected at the two sites to monitor spectral differences caused by the cleaning device, and to follow changes in exhaust air characteristics during a fattening period. The total dust load was analyzed by gravimetric determination and included as a response variable in multivariate data analysis. The filter samples were directly measured with NIR spectroscopy. Principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and factor analysis (FA) were effective in classifying the NIR exhaust air spectra according to fattening day and origin. The results indicate that the dust load and the composition of exhaust air (inorganic or organic matter) substantially influence the NIR spectral patterns. In conclusion, NIR spectroscopy as a tool is a promising and very rapid way to detect differences between exhaust air samples based on still not clearly defined circumstances triggered during a fattening period and the availability of an exhaust air cleaning system.}, language = {en} } @article{ElbersGaebHoffmannetal.2006, author = {Elbers, Gereon and G{\"a}b, Martina and Hoffmann, Katharina and Lobe, Melanie}, title = {NIR-spectroscopic investigation of foliage of ozone-stressed Fagus sylvatica trees / G{\"a}b, Martina ; Hoffmann, Katharina ; Lobe, Melanie ; Metzger, Rut ; Ooyen, Sven van ; Elbers, Gereon ; K{\"o}llner, Barbara}, series = {Journal of Forest Research. 11 (2006), H. 2}, journal = {Journal of Forest Research. 11 (2006), H. 2}, isbn = {1341-6979}, pages = {69 -- 75}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @article{ElbersPfefferFrieseletal.1993, author = {Elbers, Gereon and Pfeffer, H.-U. and Friesel, J. and Beier, R.}, title = {Pilotuntersuchungen gem{\"a}ß dem Verordnungsentwurf nach \S 40, Abs. 2 des Bundesimmissionsschutzgesetzes / H.-U.
