However, since the quantity and quality of naturally grown algae vary widely, their exploitability is reduced - especially for producers in high-priced markets. Moreover, the expansion of marine or shore-based cultivation systems is unlikely in Europe, since promising sites either lie in fishing zones, recreational areas, or natural reserves. The aim was therefore to develop a closed photobioreactor system enabling full control of abiotic environmental parameters and an effective reconditioning of the cultivation medium in order to produce marine macroalgae at sites distant from the shore. To assess the feasibility and functionality of the chosen technological concept, a prototypal plant has been implemented in central Germany - a site distant from the sea. Using a newly developed, submersible LED light source, cultivation experiments with Ulva intestinalis led to growth rates of 7.72 ± 0.04 \% day-1 in a cultivation cycle of 28 days. Based on the space demand of the production system, this results in fresh mass productivity of 3.0 kg m-2, respectively, of 1.1 kg m-2 per year. Also considering the ratio of biomass to energy input amounting to 2.76 g kWh-1, significant future improvements of the developed photobioreactor system should include the optimization of growth parameters, and the reduction of the system's overall energy demand.}, subject = {Makroalgen}, language = {en} } @article{MeyerKohlstockHauptHeldtetal., author = {Meyer-Kohlstock, Daniel and Haupt, Thomas and Heldt, Erik and Heldt, Nils and Kraft, Eckhard}, title = {Biochar as Additive in Biogas-Production from Bio-Waste}, series = {ENERGIES}, journal = {ENERGIES}, doi = {10.3390/en9040247}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170406-31119}, abstract = {Previous publications about biochar in anaerobic digestion show encouraging results with regard to increased biogas yields. This work investigates such effects in a solid-state fermentation of bio-waste. Unlike in previous trials, the influence of biochar is tested with a setup that simulates an industrial-scale biogas plant. Both the biogas and the methane yield increased around 5\% with a biochar addition of 5\%-based on organic dry matter biochar to bio-waste. An addition of 10\% increased the yield by around 3\%. While scaling effects prohibit a simple transfer of the results to industrial-scale plants, and although the certainty of the results is reduced by the heterogeneity of the bio-waste, further research in this direction seems promising.}, subject = {Festphasen-Fermentation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PeterKiewitt2001, author = {Peter, Lutz and Kiewitt, Walter}, title = {Staubbelastung an Arbeitspl{\"a}tzen in Bauschuttaufbereitungs-anlagen}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.393}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-3937}, year = {2001}, abstract = {Technologischer Ablauf in einer Bauschuttaufbereitungsanlage; Gef{\"a}hrdungen und Belastungen bei der Bauschuttaufbereitung, Schwerpunktaktion zur messtechnischen Aufkl{\"a}rung der Staubbelastung der Besch{\"a}ftigten bei der Bauschuttaufbereitung, Durchf{\"u}hrung der Messungen, Auswertung.
