Biodiesel quality control is a relevant issue as biodiesel properties influence diesel engine performance and integrity. Within the European Metrology Research Program (EMRP) ENG09 project “Metrology for Biofuels”, an on-line /at-site suitable near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) method has been developed in parallel with an improved EN14110 headspace GC analysis method for methanol in biodiesel. Both methods have been optimized for a methanol content of 0.2 mass% as this represents the maximum limit of methanol content in FAME according to EN 14214:2009. The NIRS method is based on a mobile NIR spectrometer equipped with a fiber-optic coupled probe. Due to the high volatility of methanol, a tailored air-tight adaptor was constructed to prevent methanol evaporation during measurement. The methanol content of biodiesel was determined from evaluation of NIRS spectra by Partial Least Squares Regression (PLS). Both GC analysis and NIRS exhibited a significant dependence on biodiesel feedstock. The NIRS method is applicable to a content range of 0.1 % (m/m) to 0.4 % (m/m) of methanol with uncertainties at around 6% relative for the different feedstocks. A direct comparison of headspace GC and NIRS for samples of FAMEs yielded that the results of both methods are fully compatible within their stated uncertainties.

One of the fundamental acceptance criteria for online MR-MNR spectroscopy is a robust data treatment and evaluation strategy with the potential for automation. The MR-NMR spectra were treated by an automated baseline and phase correction using the minimum entropy method.

Next to Near-infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy is increasingly applied as a powerful online tool to monitor bioprocesses. However, Raman spectra may be obscured by straylight, cosmic rays and fluorescence. To achieve the best performance, optimal conditions for spectral quality and stability should be pursued. This comprises not only the choice of highly-sensitive equipment, but also the way of implementation into the process. Here we compared the potential of introducing a sterilized fiber optical Raman probe, and a flow-through cell into the bypass of a stirred tank reactor to monitor an autotrophic cultivation of Ralstonia eutropha where gasses are the energy and carbon sources. Raman spectra were continuously recorded over seven days and 22 samples were taken for the reference analytics of biomass, optical density, and protein. In addition, data for of phosphate and ammonium were available. The quantitative Evaluation of Raman spectra by Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) yielded comparable results for both approaches, however, there was a general trend of lower prediction errors with the immersion probe. The better performance of the non-contact optic may be either related to a more representative interaction of the measurement optics with the probe or simply to the absence of probe-fouling, which was observed with the immersion optic in the interstice between window and metal frame.

While (the still valid and used for accreditation purposes) ISO Guides 34 and 35 describe in detail requirements applicable to RMP dealing with quantitative RM, accreditation bodies normally claim lack of normative requirements with respect to quantitative RM. The new ISO 17034:2016 which will be introduced in the accreditation practice over the next two to three years solves the problem pragmatically, allowing strategies for RM certification other than those for (purely) quantitative materials. In fact, both ISO Guide 34 and the new ISO 17034 are written in a form that, at least for the overwhelming majority of requirements, may be applied to RMP of both qualitative and quantitative RM. Peculiarities may occur in homogeneity and stability testing, and the uncertainty of a purely qualitative result is still under discussion. The problem of traceability might be solved for most of the application fields considered. The talk gives an overview of the specific problems encountered, and provides some possible solutions both for homogeneity and stability testing, the expression of uncertainty, and the statement of traceability in certificates.

The RM used for these kinds of PT are poorly regulated, nevertheless with a more and more general acceptance of accreditation in the field of RM production and PT provision, there is an ever increasing interest in assessing producers and providers according to rules already well accepted in the field of quantitative analysis. The basic governing document, ISO 17034:2016, is written in a form that, at least for the overwhelming majority of requirements, may be applied to both qualitative and quantitative RM. However, problems remain. In particular, the expression of uncertainty of a purely qualitative result is still unresolved, and under discussion, the latter now lasting already dozens of years. Some handles would be needed. In the poster, existing approaches and some pragmatic, new ways to tackle the problem are displayed and discussed.

NMR spectroscopy, with its advantage being a direct comparison method without need for calibration, has a high potential for closed-loop process control while exhibiting short set-up times. Compact NMR instruments make NMR spectroscopy accessible in industrial and rough environments for process monitoring and advanced process control strategies. We present a fully automated data analysis approach which is completely based on physically motivated spectral models as first principles information (Indirect Hard Modelling – IHM) and applied it to a given pharmaceutical lithiation reaction in the framework of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 project CONSENS. Online low-field NMR (LF NMR) data was analysed by IHM with low calibration effort, compared to a multivariate PLS-R (Partial Least Squares Regression) approach, and both validated using online high-field NMR (HF NMR) spectroscopy.

To monitor the degree of contamination analytical methods are urgently needed, which help to quantify microplastics (MP). Currently, time-costly purified materials enriched on filters are investigated both by micro-infrared spectroscopy and/or micro-Raman. Although yielding precise results, these techniques are time consuming, and are restricted to the analysis of a small part of the sample in the order of few micrograms. To overcome these problems, here we tested a macroscopic dimensioned NIR process-spectroscopic method in combination with chemometrics. For calibration, artificial MP/soil mixtures containing defined ratios of polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, and polystyrene with diameters < 125 µm were prepared and measured by a process FT-NIR spectrometer equipped with a fiber optic reflection probe. The resulting spectra were processed by chemometric models including support vector machine regression (SVR), and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). Validation of models by MP mixtures, MP-free soils and real-world samples, e.g. and fermenter residue, suggest a reliable detection and a possible classification of MP at levels above 0.5 to 1.0 mass% depending on the polymer. The benefit of the combined NIRS chemometric approach lies in the rapid assessment whether soil contains MP, without any chemical pre-treatment. The method can be used with larger sample volumes and even allows for an online prediction and thus meets the demand of a high-throughput method.

For this purpose, artificial MP/soil mixture samples consisting of standard soils or sand with defined ratios of MP (0,5 – 10 mass% polymer) from polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) were prepared. MP particles with diameters < 2 mm and < 125 µm were obtained from industrial polymer pellets after cryo-milling. Spectra of these mixtures were collected by (i) a process FT-NIR spectrometer equipped with a reflection probe, (ii) by a cw-process Raman spectrometer and (iii) by a time-gated Raman spectrometer using fiber-optic probes. The evaluation of process-spectra was performed by chemometric methods. Whereas MP could be detected by Raman spectroscopy in coastal sand at 0.5 mass%, in standard soil detection of MP was limited to 10 – 5 mass% with the large fraction, but samples containing particles of the 125µm mass-fraction yielded no positive result at all. One reason for the lacking sensitivity could be fluorescence by soil organic matter and thus, in a next test time-gated Raman spectroscopy was applied. However, although being indeed more sensitive to the small particles this method failed at MP < 5 mass% indicating that fluorescence was not the major problem. Finally, FT-NIR was tested. Depending on the polymer, MP contents of 0,5 or 1 mass%, respectively, could be detected in standard soils and polymers identified. Furthermore, this approach could be used for the investigation of mixtures of up to four polymers and in real-world samples from bio-waste fermenter residues.

Furthermore, the characterization of the bioprocess samples is challenging due to changing conditions in course of cultivation. Here we evaluate two different process-suitable Raman spectroscopic approaches, namely time-gated Raman which bears the potential to extract the Raman signal from the fluorescence background, and cw- Raman with NIR excitation in combination with Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy- (SERS) to investigate cell-free supernatants of Escherichia coli sampled over the course of a cultivation. A confocal Raman microscope was used as a reference for the process devices. The concentration of the analytes, glucose, acetate as well as metabolites such as cAMP, AMP and amino-acids were determined by offline by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to serve as reference for the calibration of the Raman and SERS spectral data. Multivariate evaluation of the Raman and SERS spectra by Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) yielded for most of the analytes robust correlations at each sampling point. Repeated investigation of the off-line samples over a larger experimental period suggested not only a high reliability of the Raman data in general but also a high repeatability of the SERS experiments. Similar spectral features in different quality and signal/noise ratios were measured with all three set-ups. Major results of the comparison of the different Raman spectroscopic approaches and their combination with SERS are summarized and conclusions are drawn on which approach provides the most accurate concentration data among the target analytes.

T1 - Comparison of time-gated surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TG-SERS) and classical SERS based monitoring of Escherichia coli cultivation samples N2 - The application of Raman spectroscopy as a monitoring technique for bioprocesses is severely limited by a large background signal originating from fluorescing compounds in the culture media. Here, we compare time-gated Raman (TG-Raman)-, continuous wave NIRprocess Raman (NIR-Raman), and continuous wave micro-Raman (micro-Raman) approaches in combination with surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for their potential to overcome this limit. For that purpose, we monitored metabolite concentrations of Escherichia coli bioreactor cultivations in cell-free supernatant samples. We investigated concentration transients of glucose, acetate, AMP, and cAMP at alternating substrate availability, from deficiency to excess. Raman and SERS signals were compared to off-line metabolite analysis of carbohydrates, carboxylic acids, and nucleotides. Results demonstrate that SERS, in almost all cases, led to a higher number of identifiable signals and better resolved spectra. Spectra derived from the TG-Raman were comparable to those of micro-Raman resulting in well-discernable Raman peaks, which allowed for the identification of a higher number of compounds. In contrast, NIR-Raman provided a superior performance for the quantitative evaluation of analytes, both with and without SERS nanoparticles when using multivariate data analysis.

A1 - Maiwald, Michael T1 - Online Spectroscopy in Microemulsions – A Process Analytical Approach for a Hydroformylation Mini-plant N2 - Within the Collaborative Research Center InPROMPT a novel process concept for the hydroformylation of long-chained olefins is studied in a mini-plant, using a rhodium complex as catalyst in the presence of syngas. Recently, the hydroformylation in micro¬emulsions, which allows for the efficient recycling of the expensive rhodium catalyst, was found to be feasible. However, the high sensitivity of this multi-phase system with regard to changes in temperature and composition demands a continuous observation of the reaction to achieve a reliable and economic plant operation. For that purpose, we tested the potential of both online NMR and Raman spectroscopy for process control. The lab-scale experiments were supported by off-line GC-analysis as a reference method. A fiber optic coupled probe of a process Raman spectrometer was directly integrated into the reactor. 25 mixtures with varying concentrations of olefin (1-dodecene), product (n-tridecanal), water, n-dodecane, and technical surfactant (Marlipal 24/70) were prepared according to a D-optimal design. Online NMR spectroscopy was implemented by using a flow probe equipped with 1/16” PFA tubing serving as a flow cell. This was hyphenated to the reactor within a thermostated bypass to maintain process conditions in the transfer lines. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) models were established based on the initial spectra after activation of the reaction with syngas for the prediction of unknown concentrations of 1-dodecene and n-tridecanal over the course of the reaction in the lab-scale system. The obtained Raman spectra do not only contain information on the chemical composition but are further affected by the emulsion properties of the mixtures, which depend on the phase state and the type of micelles. Based on the spectral signature of both Raman and NMR spectra, it could be deduced that especially in reaction mixtures with high 1-dodecene content the formation of isomers as a competitive reaction was dominating. Similar trends were also observed during some of the process runs in the mini-plant. The multivariate calibration allowed for the estimation of reactants and products of the hydroformylation reaction in both laboratory setup and mini-plant.

Today, mainly optical online methods are applied. NMR spectroscopy has a high potential for direct loop process control. Compact NMR instruments based on permanent magnets are robust and relatively inexpensive analysers, which feature advantages like low cost, low maintenance, ease of use, and cryogen-free operation. Instruments for online NMR measurements equipped with a flow-through cell, possessing a good signal-to-noise-ratio, sufficient robustness, and meeting the requirements for integration into industrial plants (i.e., explosion safety and fully automated data analysis) are currently not available off the rack. Intensified continuous processes are in focus of current research. Flexible (modular) chemical plants can produce different products using the same equipment with short down-times between campaigns and quick introduction of new products to the market. In continuous flow processes online sensor data and tight closed-loop control of the product quality are mandatory. If these are not available, there is a huge risk of producing large amounts of out-of-spec (OOS) products. This is addressed in the European Unionʼs Research Project CONSENS (Integrated Control and Sensing) by development and integration of smart sensor modules for process monitoring and control within such modular plant setups. The presented NMR module is provided in an explosion proof housing of 57 x 57 x 85 cm module size and involves a compact 43.5 MHz NMR spectrometer together with an acquisition unit and a programmable logic controller for automated data preparation (phasing, baseline correction) and evaluation. Indirect Hard Modeling (IHM) was selected for data analysis of the low-field NMR spectra. A set-up for monitoring continuous reactions in a thermostated 1/8” tubular reactor using automated syringe pumps was used to validate the IHM models by using high-field NMR spectroscopy as analytical reference method.

T1 - Operation and Optimal Control of Multiphase Systems – Hydroformylation in Microemulsions on the Mini-plant Scale N2 - Hydroformylation of short-chained olefins has been established as a standard industrial process for the production of C2 to C6 aldehydes. Using aqueous solutions of transition metal complexes these processes are carried out homogeneously catalyzed. A biphasic approach allows for highly efficient catalyst recovery. Regarding renewable feedstocks, the hydroformylation of long-chained alkenes (> C10) in a biphasic system, using highly selective rhodium catalysts has yet not been shown. Therefore, the Collaborative Research Center SFB/TR 63 InPROMPT develops new process concepts, involving innovative tuneable solvent systems to enable rather difficult or so far nonviable synthesis paths. One possible concept is the hydroformylation of long-chained alkenes in microemulsions. For this, a modular mixer-settler concept was proposed, combining high reaction rates and efficient catalyst recycling via the application of technical grade surfactants. The feasibility of such a concept is evaluated in a fully automated, modular mini-plant system within which the characteristics of such a multiphase system pose several obstacles for the operation. Maintaining a stable phase separation for efficient product separation and catalyst recycling is complicated by small and highly dynamic operation windows as well as poor measurability of component concentrations in the liquid phases. In this contribution, a model-based strategy is presented to enable concentration tracking and phase state control within dynamic mini-plant experiments. Raman spectroscopy is used as an advanced process analytical tool, which allows for online in-situ tracking of concentrations. Combined with optical and conductivity analysis optimal plant trajectories can be calculated via the solution of dynamic optimization problem under uncertainty. Applying these, a stable reaction yield of 40 % was achieved, combined with an oil phase purity of 99,8 % (total amount of oily components in the oil phase) and catalyst leaching below 0.1 ppm.

A1 - Maiwald, Michael T1 - Process spectroscopy in microemulsions - setup and multi-spectral approach for reaction monitoring of a homogeneous hydroformylation process N2 - Reaction monitoring in disperse systems, such as emulsions, is of significant technical importance in various disciplines like biotechnological engineering, chemical industry, food science, and a growing number other technical fields. These systems pose several challenges when it comes to process analytics, such as heterogeneity of mixtures, changes in optical behavior, and low optical activity. Concerning this, online nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique for process monitoring in complex reaction mixtures due to its unique direct comparison abilities, while at the same time being non-invasive and independent of optical properties of the sample. In this study the applicability of online-spectroscopic methods on the homogeneously catalyzed hydroformylation system of 1-dodecene to tridecanal is investigated, which is operated in a mini-plant scale at Technische Universität Berlin. The design of a laboratory setup for process-like calibration experiments is presented, including a 500 MHz online NMR spectrometer, a benchtop NMR device with 43 MHz proton frequency as well as two Raman probes and a flow cell assembly for an ultraviolet and visible light (UV/VIS) spectrometer. Results of high-resolution online NMR spectroscopy are shown and technical as well as process-specific problems observed during the measurements are discussed.

Usually applied with simple alkenes like Propene and Butene aldehydes obtained from alkenes >C6 are relevant intermediates in production of plasticizers, surfactants and polymers. Today the active catalyst species is often based on valuable Rhodium complexes in aqueous solution. This implies the problem of limited water solubility of the reactands, which is acceptable for short chain lengths, but states a problem in case of higher alkenes. Along with that efficient separation and recycling of the catalyst becomes more complicated. There are different approaches tackling this problem, e.g., by using of salt formation in the BASF process or downstream distillation within the Shell process T2 - 11.

Recently, the hydroformylation in micro-emulsions, which allows for the efficient recycling of the expensive rhodium catalyst, was found to be feasible. However, the temperature and concentration sensitive multi-phase system demands a continuous observation of the reaction to achieve an operational and economically feasible plant operation. For that purpose, we tested the potential of both NMR and Raman spectroscopy for process control assistance. The lab-scale experiments were supported by sampling for off-line GC-analysis as reference analytics. The results of the NMR experiments will be part of another contribution. T2 - 11.

To monitor the degree of contamination and to understand the underlying processes of turnover, analytical methods are urgently needed, which help to identify and quantify microplastic (MP). Currently, costly collected and purified materials enriched on filters are investigated both by micro-infrared spectroscopy and micro-Raman. Although yielding precise results, these techniques are time consuming and restricted to sample aliquots in the order of micrograms precluding prompt and representative information on both, larger sample numbers and realistic material volumes. To overcome these problems, here we tested Raman and NIR process-spectroscopic methods in combination with multivariate data analysis. For this purpose, artificial MP/soil mixture samples consisting of standard soils or sand with defined ratios of MP (0,5 – 10 mass% polymer) from polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene were prepared. MP particles with diameters < 2 mm and < 125 µm were obtained from industrial polymer pellets after cryomilling. Spectra of these mixtures were collected by (i) a process FT-NIR spectrometer equipped with a reflection probe, (ii) by a cw-process Raman spectrometer and (iii) by a time-gated Raman spectrometer using fiber optic probes. For the calibration of chemometric models (partial least squares regression, PLSR) 5 – 10 spectra of defined MP/soil mixtures (consisting of 1 – 4 g material each) were collected. The obtained PLSR models served for the prediction of both, polymer type and content based on the spectra of “unknown” test samples. Whereas MP could be detected by Raman spectroscopy in coastal sand at 0.5 mass%, in standard soils detection of MP was limited to 10 – 5 mass%. The sensitivity of Raman spectroscopy could be improved by mild treatment with hydrogen peroxide. FT-NIR was suitable for the investigation of MP in standard soils in the range of 5 – 1 mass%, however, here a non-linear effect was observed at higher polymer concentrations. When mixtures of several polymers at low concentration levels were milled together, FT-NIR spectroscopy yielded false positive polymers together with unprecise quantitative information. Recently, the investigation of “real-world” samples shall be tested and compared to the results obtained by micro-FTIR and micro-Raman.

In process analytics, huge amounts of information are produced i) by the many variables contained in one spectrum often exceeding 1000 (wavenumbers, wavelength, shifts…), and ii) the high number of spectra that is generated within the measurement period. Multivariate data analysis, often also called Chemometrics, help to extract the relevant information which is needed to examine and even control processes. Therefore, calibration models must be precise and robust, and moreover, must cover a wide range of variation of factors posing an influence on the process. In this pre-conference course an introduction to both, explorative data analysis by PCA (Principal Component Analysis), and regression analysis by the most frequently used method, i.e. PLSR (Partial Least Squares Regression) is given. In principal, all optical spectroscopic methods are suited for multivariate evaluation. It will be demonstrated that under certain preconditions, even process NMR spectra can be predicted by PLSR models. At first, basic principles of multivariate data analysis will be provided. This includes a short introduction into the concept of model building and interpretation of results. Detailed aspects of data pretreatment and calibration & validation strategies for chemometric models will be provided with own data from NIR, Raman and NMR spectroscopy. In a first example, the development of an online compatible method for the quantification of methanol in biodiesel by PLSR is presented. This also includes the classification of biodiesel feedstocks by PCA and statistical tools which allow for the estimation of a full uncertainty budget. The Raman spectroscopic prediction of Hydroformylation reaction in a miniplant is used to discuss shortcomings and pitfalls which may occur with the transfer of off-line models to the real processes. Design of experiment and strategies for suitable lab-scale experiments are presented as a possible way to overcome problems. In a third application the prediction of the reactants of an esterification reaction based on process NMR data is demonstrated.

T1 - Arsenic redox changes by microbially and chemically formed semiquinone radicals and hydroquinones in a humic substance model quinone N2 - Arsenic is a redox-active metalloid whose toxicity and mobility strongly depends on its oxidation state, with arsenite (As(III)) being more toxic and mobile than arsenate (As(V)). Humic substances (HS) are also redox-active and can potentially react with arsenic and change its redox state. In this study we show that semiquinone radicals produced during microbial or chemical reduction of a HS model quinone (AQDS, 9,10-anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid) are strong oxidants. They oxidize arsenite to arsenate, thus decreasing As toxicity and mobility. This reaction depends strongly on pH with more arsenite (up to 67.3%) being oxidized at pH 11 compared to pH 7 (12.6% oxidation) and pH 3 (0.5% oxidation). In addition to As(III) oxidation by semiquinone radicals, hydroquinones that were also produced during quinone reduction reduced As(V) to As(III) at neutral and acidic pH values (less than 12%) but not at alkaline pH. In order to understand redox reactions between arsenite/arsenate and reduced/oxidized HS, we quantified the radical content in reduced quinone solutions and constructed Eh-pH diagrams that explain the observed redox reactions. The results from this study can be used to better predict the fate of arsenic in the environment and potentially explain the occurrence of oxidized As(V) in anoxic environments.

T1 - Chemical and morphological changes in hydrochars derived from microcrystalline cellulose and investigated by chromatographic, spectroscopic and adsorption techniques N2 - Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) can be used for converting the biomass into a carbon-rich material, whose application as a fuel requires higher heating value, whereas soil amendment needs stable carbon. This work was focused on the characterization of hydrochars derived from microcrystalline cellulose. The chars were investigated using elemental analysis, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller technique, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Raman, Fourier transform infrared, and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Severity in temperature between 230 and 270 °C with reaction times between 2 and 10 h only affect the carbon content moderately. The results show that aromatization of HTC chars correlates well with temperature, which was further supported by the increase of organic radicals with decreasing g values at higher temperatures. Based on these results, the energetic use of chars favors mild HTC (T < 230 °C and t ≤ 6 h), while the soil amendement favors serve conditions (T ≥ 230 °C, and t > 6 h).

N2 - AbstractA prerequisite for the recycling of mineral wool is information about the type of material, that is, whether it is glass wool or rock wool. As mineral wool produced before the year 2000 can be potentially carcinogenic, it is furthermore important to distinguish between “old” and “new” wool when handling the material. Based on VDI 3492, it is possible to determine the material and, in the case of rock wool, the age by analyzing the mass fractions of eight oxides, which are the main components of mineral wool. This study presents the X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) analyses of 141 man‐made mineral fibers collected in Germany. Only in a few cases it was not possible to clearly assign the material type. In contrast, the identification of “old” and “new” rock wool posed a challenge as there were many borderline samples. Based on the available data, a chemometric model was developed that can classify “old” and “new” RW with a sensitivity of 93% and 89% and with a specificity of 100% in both cases. However, care must be taken when oxide contents are close to the specification limits. The reason for this mainly lies in the overlapping intervals of key oxides as suggested by VDI 3492, and, to a lesser extent, in the uncertainties typically occurring in the XRF‐based analysis of oxides. With this study, a comprehensive collection and evaluation of XRF data on mineral wool is made available, which can serve as a reference database for future users.

A1 - Paul, Andrea T1 - Iron phthalocyanine-sensitized magnetic catalysts for BPA photodegradation N2 - The catalytic behavior of iron phthalocyanine (FePc)-sensitized magnetic nanocatalysts was evaluated for their application in the oxidative treatment of Bisphenol A (BPA) under mild environmental conditions. Two types of FePc (Fe(II)Pc and Fe(III)Pc), which are highly photosensitive compounds, were immobilized on the surface of functionalized magnetite. The nanomaterials were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray difraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). The generation of singlet Oxygen by nanomaterials was also investigated. In the presence of UVA light exposure (365nm) and 15mM H2O2, the M@Fe(III)Pc photocatalyst gave the best results; for a catalyst concentration of 2.0gL −1, around 60% BPA was removed after 120min of reaction. These experimental conditions were further tested under natural solar light exposure, for which also M@Fe(III)Pc exhibited enhanced oxidative catalytic activity, being able to remove 83% of BPA in solution. The water samples were less cytotoxic after treatment, this being confrmed by the MCF-7 cell viability assay.

T1 - Persulfate activation by biochar and iron: Effect of chloride on formation of reactive species and transformation of N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) N2 - Fenton-like processes using persulfate for oxidative water treatment and contaminant removal can be enhanced by the addition of redox-active biochar, which accelerates the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) and increases the yield of reactive species that react with organic contaminants. However, available data on the formation of non-radical or radical species in the biochar/Fe(III)/persulfate system are inconsistent, which limits the evaluation of treatment efficiency and applicability in different water matrices. Based on competition kinetics calculations, we employed different scavengers and probe compounds to systematically evaluate the effect of chloride in presence of organic matter on the formation of major reactive species in the biochar/Fe(III)/persulfate system for the transformation of the model compound N,N‑diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) at pH 2.5. We show that the transformation of methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO) to methyl phenyl sulfone (PMSO2) cannot serve as a reliable indicator for Fe(IV), as previously suggested, because sulfate radicals also induce PMSO2 formation. Although the formation of Fe(IV) cannot be completely excluded, sulfate radicals were identified as the major reactive species in the biochar/Fe(III)/persulfate system in pure water. In the presence of dissolved organic matter, low chloride concentrations (0.1 mM) shifted the major reactive species likely to hydroxyl radicals. Higher chloride concentrations (1 mM), as present in a mining-impacted acidic surface water, resulted in the formation of another reactive species, possibly Cl2•−, and efficient DEET degradation. To tailor the application of this oxidation process, the water matrix must be considered as a decisive factor for reactive species formation and contaminant removal.

The main cost factors of the processes currently used are product selectivity and the loss of the catalysts used. Therefore, various concepts for the hydroformylation of long-chain olefins have been developed, including hydroformylation in microemulsions, which is being investigated on a mini-plant scale at the Technical University of Berlin [1]. In this study, online Raman spectroscopy of the reaction of 1-dodecene to 1-tri¬decanal in a microemulsion was performed [2]. First, an experimental design was used to obtain a good representation of the operating range in the mini plant with respect to the concentrations of five reactants in a laboratory setup [3]. Based on the Raman spectra, Partial Least Squares (PLS) models for the prediction of 1-dodecene and 1-tride-decanal were calibrated and with these the reactions were predicted on a laboratory scale. In the next step, the PLS models were applied to online spectra from a mini-plant. This resulted in promising estimates of 1-tridecanal and acceptable predictions of 1-dodecene mass fractions. The predictive power of PLS models in this particular case was limited by unexpected by-product formation which, however, can easily be compensated by an extended calibration. Hence, Raman spectroscopy is a promising technique for process analysis in microemulsions.
