TY - THES A1 - Krüger, Hannes T1 - Niedertemperatur Sol-Gel Verfahren für optische Schichtsysteme auf Basis von Magnesiumfluorid und Titandioxid N2 - Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde ein Niedertemperatur Sol-Gel Spin-Coating Verfahren entwickelt, mit dem sich Metalloxide und -fluoride in Form von Nanometer-dicken Schichten abscheiden lassen. Ziel dieses Verfahrens ist die Herstellung von anti- (AR) und hoch reflektierenden (HR) Schichtsystemen, die aus einem alternierenden Aufbau von niedrig brechenden und hoch brechenden Materialien bestehen. Zur Darstellung der Metallfluoride wurde dabei eine neuartige nichtwässrige Sol-Gel Synthese ausgehend von Metallalkoxiden und in Alkoholen einkondensiertem Fluorwasserstoff angewendet. Die abgeschiedenen Schichten, die bei 100 °C getrocknet wurden, sind mit REM, TEM und AFM auf ihre morphologische Struktur, mit EDX und XPS auf ihre chemische Zusammensetzung und mit Ellipsometrie und UV-vis Transmissionsspektroskopie auf ihre optischen Eigenschaften hin untersucht worden. Mit diesem Verfahren gelang die Präparation von homogenen Magnesiumfluorid- und Titandioxidschichten mit geringen Rauheiten (Ra < 2,0 nm) auf Silicium- und Quarzglassubstraten. Die Magnesiumfluoridschichten sind amorph bis teilkristallin, bestehen aus 2 nm bis 10 nm großen Partikeln und haben einen Brechungsindex von n500 = 1,36. Die Titandioxidschichten sind amorph und weisen einen Brechungsindex von n500 = 2,05 auf. Die Schichtdicken der Magnesiumfluorid- und Titandioxidschichten sind zwischen 25 nm und 500 nm einstellbar. Durch einen alternierenden Aufbau von Magnesiumfluorid- und Titandioxidschichten gelang außerdem erstmalig die Herstellung von Metallfluorid- und Metalloxid-basierten Schichtsystemen über einen Niedertemperatur Sol-Gel Prozess. Mit Hilfe der bestimmten optischen Eigenschaften der Magnesiumfluorid- und Titandioxideinzelschichten wurden einfache AR und HR Designs entwickelt und aufgebaut. Die Transmissionsspektren der Designs und der jeweiligen Schichtsysteme zeigten dabei gute Übereinstimmungen, gleiches galt für die mit Hilfe der Spektralellipsometrie aufgenommenen Reflexionsspektren. In dieser Arbeit konnte erstmals gezeigt werden, dass sich das Niedertemperatur Sol-Gel Verfahren prinzipiell zur Herstellung von einfachen AR und HR Schichtsystemen eignet. N2 - This work deals with the development of a low temperature sol-gel spincoating process for thin films with thicknesses in the nanometer range based on metal oxides and metal fluorides. Optical films such as anti-reflective (AR) or high reflective coatings are of much interest and consist of alternating dielectric layers of low and high refractive index materials. Regarding the general procedure for the metal fluorides a novel nonaqueous sol-gel synthesis starting from metal alkoxides and alcohol-dissolved HF was used. The coatings were dried and calcined at 100 °C. The morphology of these films was characterised with REM, TEM and AFM. EDX and XPS were used to indentify the chemical composition and ellipsometry and UV-vis spectroscopy to determine the optical properties of the films. This new process allows the preparation of homogeneous magnesium Fluoride and titanium dioxide layers with low roughness (Ra ≤ 1,9 nm) on Silicon and quartz substrates. The magnesium fluoride layers are partially amorphous or microcrystalline with crystallite sizes from 2 nm to 10 nm. The titanium dioxide layers are predominantly amorphous. The thicknesses of the magnesium fluoride and titanium dioxide single layers were adjustable between 25 nm and 500 nm depending on the number of coating steps and on the concentration of the used sols. The magnesium fluoride layers had a refractive index of n500 = 1,36 and the titanium dioxide layers a refraction index of n500 = 2,05. For the first time, an alternating metal fluoride and oxide multilayer system was produced with a low temperature sol-gel method (consisting of magnesium fluoride and titanium dioxide). Based on the determined optical constants of the magnesium fluoride and titanium dioxide single layers, AR and HR multilayer systems were calculated and fabricated. The transmission spectra of the designs and the corresponding multilayer were in good agreement. Similar results were obtained with the reflection spectra determined with spectral ellipsometry. The presented investigations were able to show that the developed low temperature sol-gel process using the spin-coating technique is suitable for the preparation of simple AR and HR multilayer systems.

A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Chemical state of mercury and selenium in sewage sludge ash based P-fertilizers N2 - Phosphorus-fertilizers from secondary resources such as sewage sludge ash (SSA) will become more important in the future as they could substitute conventional fertilizers based on the nonrenewable resource phosphate rock. Thermochemical approaches were developed which remove heavy metals from SSA prior to its fertilizer application on farmlands. We analyzed the chemical state of mercury and selenium in SSA before and after thermochemical treatment under different conditions for P-fertilizer production by X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. In some incineration plants the mercury loaded carbon adsorber from off-gas cleaning was collected together with the SSA for waste disposal. SSAs from those plants contained mercury mainly bound to carbon/organic material. The other SSAs contained inorganic mercury compounds which are most probably stabilized in the SSA matrix and were thus not evaporated during incineration. During thermochemical treatment, carbon-bound mercury was removed quantitatively. In contrast, a certain immobile fraction of inorganic mercury compounds remained in thermochemically treated SSA, which were not clearly identified. HgSe might be one of the inorganic compounds, which is supported by results of Se K-edge XANES spectroscopy. Furthermore, the chemical state of selenium in the SSAs was very sensitive to the conditions of the thermochemical treatment.

T1 - Phosphorus flows in German sewage sludge ashes and potential recovery technologies N2 - Phosphorus (P) is essential for all forms of life and cannot be substituted. It is one of the macro nutrients applied in form of mineral or organic fertilizers in agricultural crop production. Mineral P fertilizers are generally based on phosphate rock, a limited resource. Western Europe completely depends on imports as it has no own relevant phosphate mines. The most abundant phosphate deposits are located only in a few countries such as Morocco, China, South Africa and the United States of America. Furthermore, phosphate rock and as a consequence mineral P fertilizers are often contaminated with the toxic elements cadmium and uranium. In Order to substitute phosphate rock P-bearing waste streams are investigated for their potential to be recyded as fertilizers. Wastewater is one of the important P-bearing waste streams that were in the focus of research in the last 10 years. German wastewater is e.g. a carrier of approx. 70,000 t of phosphorus per year.

T1 - Technische Prozesse zur Phosphorrückgewinnung aus Klärschlammaschen N2 - Klärschlammaschen weisen hohe Gehalte an Phosphor auf, dieser ist allerdings schlecht für Pflanzen verfügbar. Des Weiteren enthalten sie Schwermetalle die vor dem Einsatz als Düngemittel entfernt werden müssen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurden in den letzten Jahren nasschemische und thermochemische Verfahren entwickelt und zum Teil bereits in Demonstrationsanlagen getestet. Ein thermochemischer Verfahrensansatz wird in diesem Beitrag näher vorgestellt. Klärschlammaschen werden mit Klärschlamm als Reduktionsmittel und Natriumsulfat als Aufschlussmittel im Drehrohrofen thermisch behandelt. Bei diesem Prozess wird pflanzenverfügbares NaCaPÜ4 gebildet, unerwünschte Elemente wie As, Cd, Hg und Pb werden zum Teil über die Gasphase separiert. Die Ergebnisse eines Demonstrationsversuchs werden vorgestellt. N2 - Sewage sludge ashes exhibit high phosphorus mass fractions. However, the availability of phosphorus to plants is poor. Furthermore, sewage sludge ashes contain eco-toxicologically relevant heavy metals that have to be removed prior to agricultural application. ln front of this background several wet-chemical and thermo-chemical processes were developed in the last years and some of them were already successfully demonstrated in large scale. A thermo-chemical approach is presented in this article. Sewage sludge ashes are mixed with dry sewage sludge as reductant and sodium sulfate. Düring thermal treatment in a rotary kiln at approx. 950°C plant available NaCaPCU is formed. Furthermore undesired elements such as As, Cd, Hg and Pb are separated via the gas phase. Results of demonstration trials are presented. T2 - 8.

T1 - On the application of gold based SPR sensors for the detection of hazardous gases N2 - A gas sensor system based on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect in a 44 nm Au layer was studied. The usability of this sensor system was investigated for several analyte gases and gas mixtures which are interesting due to their flammability, toxicity or greenhouse effect. The SPR effect of gold was measured in nitrogen and compared with the gaseous alkane series which caused a shift of the position of the SPR effect. For in situ measurements, the phase shift Δ at the SPR angle (ψ minimum) in the analyte gas mixtures was measured for investigated gases in comparison with nitrogen. With this method, detection limits of different gases could be determined, which lie in a range interesting for safety engineering. Furthermore the aging effect of the gold layers which leads to loss in sensitivity of the sensor was investigated.

A1 - Adam, Christian T1 - Sewage sludge ash - A promising secondary phosphorus source for fertilizer production N2 - Sewage sludge incineration is extensively practiced in some European countries such as the Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria and Germany. A survey of German sewage sludge ash showed that the recovery potential is high, approx. 19,000 t of phosphorus per year. However, the survey also discovered that the bioavailability of phosphorus in the sewage sludge ash is poor and that more than half of the ashes cannot be used as fertilizers due to high heavy metal content. A new thermochemical process for sewage sludge ash treatment was developed that transforms the ash into marketable fertilizer products. Sewage sludge ash was thermochemically treated with sodium and potassium additives under reducing conditions, whereby the phosphate-bearing mineral phases were transformed into plant available phosphates. High P-bioavailability was achieved with a molar Na/P ratio > 1.75 in the starting materials. Sodium sulfate, carbonate and hydroxide performed comparably as additives for this calcination process. Potassium carbonate and -hydroxide have to be added in a molar K/P ratio > 2.5 to achieve comparable P-solubility. The findings of the laboratory scale investigations were confirmed by an industrial demonstration trial for an ash treatment with sodium sulfate. Simultaneously, the volatile transition metal arsenic (61% removal) as well as volatile heavy metals such as cadmium (80%), mercury (68%), lead (39%) and zinc (9%) were removed via the off-gas treatment system. The product of the demonstration trial is characterized by high bioavailability and a toxic trace element mass fraction below the limit values of the German fertilizer ordinance, thus fulfilling the quality parameters for a P-fertilizer.

Europe completely depends on imports since there are no relevant phosphate rock deposits on the continent. Furthermore, phosphate rock is contaminated with heavy metals such as Cd and U that pollute the farmlands and pose environmental risks. Sewage sludge ash (SSA) might be a promising source for recycling fertilizer since it contains large amounts of P (up to 13 %). However, fertilizer from SSA has to comply with the respective ordinances, particularly the heavy metal limit values stated in the fertilizer ordinance, and requires sufficient P bioavailability. Thus, we conducted a complete survey of SSA from German mono-incineration facilities and developed a thermochemical treatment for SSA to reduce toxic elements and increase P bioavailability.

T1 - SPR enhanced ellipsometric gas monitoring on thin iron doped tin oxide layers N2 - In this work, thin iron doped tin oxide layers (3–6 nm) were investigated with regard to gas sensitivity by means of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect with ellipsometric readout. The experimental set-up was a Kretschmann configuration with gold as metal layer. The sensor system was exposed to different concentrations of methane in the low ppm range and the sensor response of an uncoated gold layer compared to a gold layer coated with iron doped tin oxide. The additional layer effects stability with regard to drift behavior of the sensor and an increase in sensitivity. Furthermore, the sensor is able to detect the toxic gas carbon monoxide in low concentration range (down to 0.5 ppm). The thin layers were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, secondary electron microscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry. The possible mechanisms taking place on the surface are discussed.
