Major elements of the Passivhaus concept are a high thermal insulation of the external walls, the use of heat and/or solar shading glazing as well as an airtight building envelope in combination with energy-efficient technical building installations and heating or cooling generators, such as an efficient energy-recovery in the building air-conditioning. The objective of this research project is the inquiry to determine the parameters or constraints under which the Passivhaus concept can be implemented under the arid climate conditions in the Arabian Peninsula to achieve an energy-efficient and economical building with high utilization comfort. In cooperation between the Qatar Green Building Council (QGBC), Barwa Real Estate (BRE) and Kahramaa the first Passivhaus was constructed in Qatar and on the Arabian Peninsula in 2013. The Solar-Institut J{\"u}lich of Aachen University of Applied Science supports the Qatar Green Building Council with a dynamic building and equipment simulation of the Passivhaus and the neighbouring reference building. This includes simulation studies with different component configurations for the building envelope and different control strategies for heating or cooling systems as well as the air conditioning of buildings to find an energetic-economical optimum. Part of these analyses is the evaluation of the energy efficiency of the used energy recovery system in the Passivhaus air-conditioning and identification of possible energy-saving effects by the use of a bypass function integrated in the heat exchanger. In this way it is expected that on an annual basis the complete electricity demand of the building can be covered by the roof-integrated PV generator.}, language = {en} } @article{ThielMufflerTippkoetteretal.2015, author = {Thiel, Alexander and Muffler, Kai and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Suck, Kirstin and Sohling, Ulrich and Hruschka, Steffen M. and Ulber, Roland}, title = {A novel integrated downstream processing approach to recover sinapic acid, phytic acid and proteins from rapeseed meal}, series = {Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology}, volume = {90}, journal = {Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology}, number = {11}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, doi = {10.1002/jctb.4664}, pages = {1999 -- 2006}, year = {2015}, abstract = {BACKGROUND Currently, several techniques exist for the downstream processing of protein, phytic acid and sinapic acid from rapeseed and rapeseed meal, but no technique has been developed to separate all of the components in one process. In this work, two new downstream processing strategies focusing on recovering sinapic acid, phytic acid and protein from rapeseed meal were established. RESULTS The sinapic acid content was enhanced by a factor of 4.5 with one method and 5.1 with the other. The isolation of sinapic acid was accomplished using a zeolite-based adsorbent with high adsorptive and optimal desorption characteristics. Phytic acid was isolated using the anion-exchange resin Purolite A200®. In addition, the processes resulted in two separated protein fractions. The ratios of globulin and albumin ratio to the total protein were 59.2\% and 40.1\%, respectively. The steps were then combined in two different ways: (a) a 'sequential process' using the zeolite and A200 in batch processes; and (b) a 'parallel process' using only A200 in a chromatographic system to separate all of the compounds. CONCLUSIONS It can be concluded that isolation of all three components was possible in both processes. These could enhance the added value of current processes using rapeseed meal as a protein source. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry}, language = {en} } @article{AlKaidyDuweHusteretal.2015, author = {Al-Kaidy, Huschyar and Duwe, Anna and Huster, Manuel and Muffler, Kai and Schlegel, Christin and Tim, Sieker and Stadtm{\"u}ller, Ralf and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Biotechnology and bioprocess engineering - from the first ullmann's article to recent trends}, series = {ChemBioEng Reviews}, volume = {2}, journal = {ChemBioEng Reviews}, number = {3}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, doi = {10.1002/cben.201500008}, pages = {175 -- 184}, year = {2015}, abstract = {For several thousand years, biotechnology and its associated technical processes have had a great impact on the development of mankind.

The first step towards optimization is a complete examination of the system: 1) Compilation of an object list for the system, 2) collection of the characteristic curves of the components, and 3) measurement of the load profiles of the heat and volume-flow demand. Instead of modifying the system manually and testing the solution by simulation, the second step was the creation of a global optimization program.
