The ATS system was located in a greenhouse (50°54′19ʺN, 6°24′55ʺE, Germany) and was exposed to seasonal conditions during the experiment period. The methane (CH4) potential of untreated algal-bacterial biofilm (UAB) and thermally pretreated biofilm (PAB) using different microbial inocula was determined by anaerobic batch fermentation. Methane productivity of UAB differed significantly between microbial inocula of digested wastepaper, a mixture of manure and maize silage, anaerobic sewage sludge, and percolated green waste. UAB using sewage sludge as inoculum showed the highest methane productivity. The share of methane in biogas was dependent on inoculum. Using PAB, a strong positive impact on methane productivity was identified for the digested wastepaper (116.4\%) and a mixture of manure and maize silage (107.4\%) inocula. By contrast, the methane yield was significantly reduced for the digested anaerobic sewage sludge (50.6\%) and percolated green waste (43.5\%) inocula. To further evaluate the potential of algal-bacterial biofilm for biogas production in wastewater treatment and biogas plants in a circular bioeconomy, scale-up calculations were conducted. It was found that a 0.116 km2 ATS would be required in an average municipal wastewater treatment plant which can be viewed as problematic in terms of space consumption. However, a substantial amount of energy surplus (4.7-12.5 MWh a-1) can be gained through the addition of algal-bacterial biomass to the anaerobic digester of a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater treatment and subsequent energy production through algae show dominancy over conventional technologies.}, language = {en} } @article{WangDruckenmuellerElbersetal.2014, author = {Wang, Ren-Qi and Druckenm{\"u}ller, Katharina and Elbers, Gereon and Guenther, Klaus and Crou{\´e}, Jean-Philippe}, title = {Analysis of aquatic-phase natural organic matter by optimized LDI-MS method}, series = {Journal of mass spectrometry}, volume = {49}, journal = {Journal of mass spectrometry}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Bognor Regis}, issn = {1096-9888}, doi = {10.1002/jms.3321}, pages = {154 -- 160}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The composition and physiochemical properties of aquatic-phase natural organic matter (NOM) are most important problems for both environmental studies and water industry. 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.

When different radionuclides are present simultaneously, additional processing is needed to distinguish distributions of radionuclides. In this work, a method is presented where aluminium absorbers of different thickness are used to produce images with different cut-off energies. By subtracting images pixel-by-pixel one can generate images representing certain ranges of β-particle energies. The method is applied to the measurement of irradiated reactor graphite samples containing several radionuclides to determine the spatial distribution of these radionuclides within pre-defined energy windows. The process was repeated under fixed parameters after thermal treatment of the samples. The greyscale images of the distribution after treatment were subtracted from the corresponding pre-treatment images. Significant changes in the intensity and distribution of radionuclides could be observed in some samples. Due to the thermal treatment parameters the most significant differences were observed in the ³H and ¹⁴C inventory and distribution.}, language = {en} } @article{BiselliKlyushnichenkoRodenbrocketal.1998, author = {Biselli, Manfred and Klyushnichenko, Vadim and Rodenbrock, Anja and Th{\"o}mmes, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Analysis of Hybridoma Cell Culture Processes by SDS-Gel Capillary Electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight MS / Vadim Klyushnichenko, Anja Rodenbrock, J{\"o}rg Th{\"o}mmes, Maria-Regina Kula, Holger Heine, Manfred Biselli}, series = {Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry. 27 (1998), H. 3}, journal = {Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry. 27 (1998), H. 3}, isbn = {0885-4513}, pages = {181 -- 188}, year = {1998}, language = {en} } @article{SchererSantanaMaieretal.2009, author = {Scherer, Ulrich W. and Santana, H.

The disposal of nuclear waste is the end point of nuclear waste management (NWM) activities and is the emplacement of waste in an appropriate facility without the intention to retrieve it. The IAEA has developed an internationally accepted classification scheme based on the end points of NWM, which is used as guidance. Retention times needed for safe isolation of waste radionuclides are estimated based on the radiotoxicity of nuclear waste. Disposal facilities usually rely on a multi-barrier defence system to isolate the waste from the biosphere, which comprises the natural geological barrier and the engineered barrier system. Disposal facilities could be of a trench type, vaults, tunnels, shafts, boreholes, or mined repositories. A graded approach relates the depth of the disposal facilities' location with the level of hazard. Disposal practices demonstrate the reliability of nuclear waste disposal with minimal expected impacts on the environment and humans.}, language = {en} } @article{AlKaidyKuthanHeringetal.2016, author = {Al-Kaidy, Huschyar and Kuthan, Kai and Hering, Thomas and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils}, title = {Aqueous droplets used as enzymatic microreactors and their electromagnetic actuation}, series = {Journal of Visualized Experiments}, journal = {Journal of Visualized Experiments}, number = {Issue 126}, issn = {1940-087X}, doi = {10.3791/54643}, year = {2016}, abstract = {For the successful implementation of microfluidic reaction systems, such as PCR and electrophoresis, the movement of small liquid volumes is essential. In conventional lab-on-a-chip-platforms, solvents and samples are passed through defined microfluidic channels with complex flow control installations. The droplet actuation platform presented here is a promising alternative. With it, it is possible to move a liquid drop (microreactor) on a planar surface of a reaction platform (lab-in-a-drop). The actuation of microreactors on the hydrophobic surface of the platform is based on the use of magnetic forces acting on the outer shell of the liquid drops which is made of a thin layer of superhydrophobic magnetite particles. The hydrophobic surface of the platform is needed to avoid any contact between the liquid core and the surface to allow a smooth movement of the microreactor. On the platform, one or more microreactors with volumes of 10 µL can be positioned and moved simultaneously. The platform itself consists of a 3 x 3 matrix of electrical double coils which accommodate either neodymium or iron cores. The magnetic field gradients are automatically controlled. By variation of the magnetic field gradients, the microreactors' magnetic hydrophobic shell can be manipulated automatically to move the microreactor or open the shell reversibly. Reactions of substrates and corresponding enzymes can be initiated by merging the microreactors or bringing them into contact with surface immobilized catalysts.}, language = {en} } @article{SchererSchaedelBruechleetal.1989, author = {Scherer, Ulrich W. and Sch{\"a}del, M. and Br{\"u}chle, W. and J{\"a}ger, E.}, title = {ARCA II - A New Apparatus for Fast Repetitive HPLC-Separations / M.
