In this contribution we focus on the catalytic active sites of a NiO catalyst supported on SiO2(NiO/SiO2) which is commonly used in the Sabatier reaction. A novel technique for the characterization of the active sites is presented and dis-cussed using thermal desorption spectroscopy at ambient pressure. This analytical tool is operated under reaction conditions and allows element specific measurements during the catalytic process of CO2 reforming towards methane. Beside the desorption experiments, XPS and XAS measurements of pristine and catalytically used samples are performed to determine the influence of the Sabatier reaction conditions on the surface structure of the catalyst.}, language = {en} } @incollection{UlrichSchlegelMertensetal., author = {Ulrich, Rainer G. and Schlegel, Matthias and Mertens, Marc and Groschup, Martin H. and Schmidt-Chanasit, Jonas and Plenge-B{\"o}nig, Anita and Jacob, Jens and Pelz, Hans-Joachim and Freise, Jona and Wenk, Matthias and Thiel, J{\"o}rg and Triebenbacher, Cornelia and Schmolz, Eric and Kurth, Andreas and Kr{\"u}ger, Frank and R{\"u}he, Ferdinand and Kiffner, Christian and Ansorge, Hermann and Gerwin, Werner and Wegener, Wolfgang and M{\"u}ller, J{\"o}rg and Bemmann, Margit and Wolf, Ronny and Otto, Lutz-Florian and Oehme, Rainer and Pfeffer, Martin and Heckel, Gerald and Schex, Susanne and Essbauer, Sandra S.}, title = {Netzwerk Nagetier-{\"u}bertragene Pathogene: Monitoring von Hantavirus-Infektionen in Deutschland}, series = {Wildhygiene, Wildtierkrankheiten, Parasiten, Epidemiologie}, booktitle = {Wildhygiene, Wildtierkrankheiten, Parasiten, Epidemiologie}, publisher = {Ges. f{\"u}r Wildtier- und Jagdforschung}, address = {Halle/Saale}, isbn = {978-378-88131-2-3}, issn = {1436-3895}, pages = {229 -- 250}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{SchreiberKrautzMueller, author = {Schreiber, Matthias and Krautz, Hans Joachim and M{\"u}ller, R.}, title = {Entwicklung einer Software zur verfahrenstechnischen Auslegung von Bioverbundstandorten}, language = {de} } @misc{GotschHippLerngauetal., author = {Gotsch, Matthias and Hipp, Christiane and Lerngau, M. and M{\"u}ller, G. and Reuter, N. and Saam, M. and Weber, Lars}, title = {Mikro- und Makro{\"o}konomische Aspekte der Dienstleistungsproduktivit{\"a}t - State of the Art}, language = {de} } @misc{MuellerRichterPhilipetal., author = {M{\"u}ller, Klaus and Richter, Matthias and Philip, Shine and Kunst, Manuel and Schmeißer, Dieter}, title = {Excited states in P3HT and P3HT/PCBM blends}, series = {BioNanoScience}, volume = {2}, journal = {BioNanoScience}, number = {1}, issn = {2191-1630}, pages = {42 -- 51}, language = {en} } @misc{MuellerRichterFriedrichetal., author = {M{\"u}ller, Klaus and Richter, Matthias and Friedrich, Daniel and Paloumpa, Ioanna and Kramm, Ulrike Ingrid and Schmeißer, Dieter}, title = {Spectroscopic characterization of Cobalt-Phthalocyanine electrocatalysts for fuel cell applications}, series = {Solid State Ionics}, journal = {Solid State Ionics}, number = {216}, issn = {1872-7689}, doi = {10.1016/j.ssi.2011.12.013}, pages = {78 -- 82}, abstract = {For polymer-electrolyte-membrane fuel cells (PEM-FC), platinumcatalysts on carbon based substrates are state of the art, due to high electrochemical activity and chemical stability in acid electrolytes. High costs of platinum force investigations of alternative catalysts. With respect to the oxygen reduction reaction, possible candidates are transition metal (TM) complexes like TM-porphyrines or TM-phthalocyanines. Pyrolysis on carbon based substrates improves the catalytic activity. Highest activities were found for Fe or Co as transition metal centers. We present results of the pyrolysis of Co-phthalocyanine (CoPc) on carbon black. Besides an investigation of morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and chemical composition by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) during pyrolysis, we present a near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) study of the chemical composition for the related annealing steps. This investigation is accompanied by an electrochemical characterization of the catalytic activity and selectivity. The XPS and NEXAFS data indicate a decomposition of the CoN4(chelate-) complex during pyrolysis. The N1s data for 800 °C show graphite-like, formally pyrrolic and pyridinic like features, without any significant contri-bution of Co. The Co2p data for both, XPS and NEXAFS are dominated by CoO/Co2O3. It can be concluded that during the pyrolysis cobalt particles are formed by the disintegration of CoN4-centers, after pyrolysis these par-ticles become oxidized upon contact with air.}, language = {en} } @misc{MuellerStaedterRachowetal., author = {M{\"u}ller, Klaus and St{\"a}dter, Matthias and Rachow, Fabian and Hoffmannbeck, David and Schmeißer, Dieter}, title = {Sabatier-based CO2-methanation by catalytic conversion}, series = {Environmental Earth Sciences}, volume = {70}, journal = {Environmental Earth Sciences}, number = {8}, issn = {1866-6280}, doi = {10.1007/s12665-013-2609-3}, pages = {3771 -- 3778}, abstract = {The catalytic conversion of CO2is an important component for the reintegration of secondary products like CO2 or H2 into the energy supply. An example is the "power to gas'" concept with a conversion of CO2 into CH4. The CO2 is transferred into a carrier of chemical energy, with the possibility to feed the produced CH4 into the existing network of natural gas. At temperatures of around 350 °C, hydrogenation of CO2 to CH4 is possible by the Sabatier reaction CO2+4H2->CH4+H2O. One prerequisite for efficient kinetics of the Sabatier reaction is the application and optimization of catalysts. The focus of catalyst development is given to their performance under the conditions to be expected in the special application. As a part of the project Geoenergy-Research (GeoEn), we address questions related to the catalytic utilization of CO2 produced in the course of the oxyfuel combustion of lignite. In this contribution, we report on the experimental setup in laboratory scale, which enables an advanced characterization of the catalytic performance, including thermodesorption measurements at atmospheric pressure in order to determine the amount of adsorbed CO2 under real conditions. We also show data for activation energies, the catalytic performance as function of temperature and the long time stability of a commercial Ru-based catalyst.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KachelRichterPhilipetal., author = {Kachel, Krzysztof and Richter, Matthias and Philip, Shine and Paloumpa, Ioanna and M{\"u}ller, Klaus and Schmeißer, Dieter}, title = {Performance of organic solar cells with a ferroelectric component}, series = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 45}, booktitle = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, Reihe 6, Bd. 45}, publisher = {Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft}, address = {Bad Honnef}, issn = {0420-0195}, pages = {S. 153}, abstract = {Charge dissociation and recombination are important factors for the efficiency of organic solar cells, even in blended systems of different polymers.

As solar cell system we use bulk heterojunction cells or bilayer structures based on regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as the donor and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as the acceptor molecule. As ferroelectric additive we use the ferroelectric copolymer poly(vinylidene fluoride trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) or BaTiO3. The copolymer is spincoated as ultrathin film of 20nm, whereas the BaTiO3 is incorporated as nanodispersion into the donor-acceptor blend.
