TY - THES A1 - Tiebe, Carlo T1 - Detektion leicht flüchtiger organischer Verbindungen mikrobiellen Ursprungs (MVOC) mittels Ionenmobilitätsspektrometrie (IMS) N2 - Spuren leicht flüchtiger organischer Verbindungen mikrobiellen Ursprungs (MVOC) in der Luft von Innenräumen können das Vorhandensein von Schimmelpilzen indizieren. Die Anwendung der Ionenmobilitätsspektrometrie (IMS) zur Detektion von leicht flüchtigen schimmelpilzspezifischenVerbindungen ist wegen ihrer hohen Empfindlichkeit viel versprechend. Um dieses analytisch-chemische Verfahren für eine Innenraumdiagnostik zu nutzen, wurde ein mobil einsetzbares Gerät zur Vor-Ort-Detektion getestet. Im ersten Teil der Arbeit wurden MVOC-Prüfgase im Labor generiert. Die Prüfgase wurden durch permeative Beimengungen in einen definierten Gasstrom hergestellt. Anhand dieser Prüfgase wurden die typischen IMS-Parameter, wie reduzierte Mobilität (K0), relative Driftzeit (trd), Konzentrationsabhängigkeit der Signale und daraus resultierend die Nachweisgrenze des Ionenmobilitätsspektrometer ermittelt. Die bestimmten Nachweisgrenzen der 14 untersuchten MVOC liegen im Bereich zwischen 2 und 192 μg m-3 (1 bis 51 ppbV). Im zweiten Teil wurden sieben oft im Innenraum nachgewiesene Schimmelpilzarten auf Nährmedien kultiviert und ihre produzierten MVOC detektiert. Dabei wurde festgestellt, dass Schimmelpilze art- und altersabhängige MVOC-Emissionen aufweisen. Eine statistische Auswertung und Bestätigung zeigte die Anwendung der Hauptkomponentenanalyse (PCA). Versuchsbegleitend erfolgte eine Identifizierung der MVOC durch gaschromatographische Analysen und bestätigte die IMS-Ergebnisse. Beim Schimmelpilzwachstum einer Mischsporenkultur auf drei verschiedenen Baumaterialien wurden die produzierten MVOC detektiert. Die IMS-Spektren wurden chemometrisch durch eine PCA ausgewertet. Es können die Spektren von unbeimpften und mit Schimmelpilzkulturen beimpften Baumaterialien damit unterscheiden werden ohne die stoffliche Zusammensetzung der Emissionskammerluft zu kennen. Im letzten Teil dieser Arbeit wurde das IMS in 27 Feldversuchen eingesetzt, um MVOC und damit ein Schimmelpilzwachstum in Innenräumen zu detektieren. In 59 % der Fälle wurde eine positive Korrelation zwischen einem sichtbaren Schimmelpilzbefall und den mittels IMS detektierten MVOC ermittelt. N2 - Traces of microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) can indicate the growth of moulds in the indoor air. The application of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is a very promising method for the detection of these MVOCs due to its high sensitivity. A mobile IMS device was tested to use this analytical-chemical method for in situ indoor air diagnostics. The first part of this work describes the test gas generation of 14 MVOCs in the laboratory. The test gases were produced by preparation of permeation procedures. Due to the MVOCs test gases IMS parameters like reduced mobility (K0), relative drift time (trd), the concentration dependency of MVOCs signals were determined and the limit of detection (LOD) was calculated. The LODs are in the range of 2 to 192 μg m-3 (1 to 51 ppbV). In the second part of this manuscript seven different mould species were cultivated on nutrient media and their MVOCs emissions were explored. It was found out, that the MVOCs emissions of moulds have a dependency of species and of their cultivation time. These results are confirmed by principal component analysis (PCA). The identification of These MVOCs was performed by test-related GC-MS analysis and approved these results. The MVOCs emissions were explored in the cultivation of mould mixtures on three different building materials. The IMS-results were interpreted chemo metrically by PCA. It was possible to find different emission patterns of cultivated moulds on building materials without an identification of the MVOCs inside the emission chamber. In 27 field trials of different indoor environments (rooms) the IMS was tested to detect MVOCs. In 59 % of the cases a positive correlation is determined between visible mouldinfested rooms and the detected MVOCs by IMS.

A1 - Johann, Sergej A1 - Tiebe, Carlo T1 - Fluorescence sensor for the long-term monitoring of gaseous ammonia N2 - Ammonia and its reaction products can cause considerable damage of human health and ecosystems, increasing the necessity for reliable and reversible sensors to monitor traces of gaseous ammonia in ambient air directly on-site or in the field. Although various types of gas sensors are available, fluorescence sensors have gained importance due to advantages such as high sensitivity and facile miniaturization. Here, we present the development of a sensor material for the detection of gaseous ammonia in the lower ppm to ppb range by incorporation of a fluorescent dye, which shows reversible fluorescence modulations as a function of analyte concentration, into a polymer matrix to ensure the accumulation of ammonia. A gas standard generator producing standard gas mixtures, which comply with the metrological traceability in the desired environmentally relevant measurement range, was used to calibrate the optical sensor system. To integrate the sensor material into a mobile device, a prototype of a hand-held instrument was developed, enabling straightforward data acquisition over a long period.

T1 - Advance in electronic nose technology developed for the detection and discrimination of ethanol, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide gases N2 - This work focuses on the design and fabrication of low-cost and fast-response of an electronic nose (E-nose) based on semiconductor gas sensors, for discriminating some synthetic gases such as ammonia (NH3), ethanol (C2H5OH), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Additionally, the capability of separating different concentration levels of each considered gases was checked. Dataset treatment of E-nose by using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) showed a good discrimination of the different synthetic gases. Furthermore, perfect classification was reached of different concentration levels of the analysed gases by using Discriminant Function Analysis (DFA). In the light of these results, it could be stated that the developed E-nose system constitutes an inexpensive, rapid, simple to use, and efficient tool for synthetic gases detection.

It affects similarly agricultural, industrial and urban areas. In future, environmental emissions in ambient air must be monitored at even lower concentrations as nowadays. One environmental relevant compound is ammonia and its conversion product ammonium that have strong negative impact on human health and ecosystems. Most ammonia measurements in ambient air are performed in the range below 1000 nmol·mol-1 and thus there is a need for reliable traceable ammonia gas standards and in addition in situ analytical procedures for monitoring (in ambient air to avoid that thresholds are exceeded). Therefore, the use of reference materials is necessary for development accompanying test or for calibration, e. g. of structure-integrated sensors and mobile multi-gas sensors. The developed gas standard generator produces gas mixtures that comply with the metrological traceability for ammonia gas standards in the desired environmentally relevant measurement range. The method is based on the permeation of ammonia through a membrane at constant temperature and pressure. The resulting ammonia penetrant gas flow is then mixed with a carrier gas flow to generate a gas standard flow of known concentration. The dynamic rage is enlarged by using a two dilution steps. Depending on the permeation rate, generable molar fractions are possible in the range nmol·mol-1 to a few µmol·mol-1. We present the design of an ammonia gas standard generator and first results of the characterisation of its individual components supporting the uncertainty assessment according to GUM for stable gas concentrations in this range. The relative uncertainty of the generated ammonia gas standard is smaller than 4 % (k = 2).

T1 - Measurement and Testing Methods for Sensors in Hydrogen Technologies N2 - To ensure accurate results, it is advisable to conduct sensor testing under controlled conditions, focusing on identifying specific properties and quantifying performance criteria. The necessity of these evaluations lies in determining if a potentially beneficial sensor is a good fit for a specific application. Devices are typically factory-calibrated in according to ISO/IEC 17025, followed by testing/validation prior to intended use. Subsequent inspections/validations performance tests and long-term stability should be repeated in appropriate intervals. We present the testing and calibration validation of a hydrogen sensor intended for safety applications, using dynamic dilution of hydrogen into clean, dry air. • Sensor testing for the determination of non-explosive gas mixture composition, response time and characteristic curves of gas sensors, gas measuring devices. • Hydrogen mole fraction: 100 μmol/mol to > 4.0 cmol/mol – (approximately equal to 0.1 Vol-% to > 4.0 Vol-%) • Humidity: frost-point temperatures in the range of -85 °C to 15 °C (equal to 0.2 μmol/mol to 17000 μmol/mol humidity mole fraction) at ambient pressure • Sensor output provided directly in hydrogen volume percent, as defined by the factory calibration. The results obtained from the device under test demonstrate the effectiveness of the evaluated gas sensor in detecting and quantifying hydrogen. Its responses to different amounts of hydrogen in air and reliably returns to zero. To quantify the generated hydrogen mole fractions in situ and in operando, a process-GC-TCD-TCD system calibrated against our primary gas standards was used, ensuring the highest accuracy as a designated institute for primary gas standards. This procedure provides a foundation for modern and efficient quality assurance of gas sensors.

T1 - Geographical provenience differentiation and adulteration detection of cumin by means of electronic sensing Systems and SPME-GC-MS in combination with different chemometric approaches N2 - The detection of the aroma and flavour volatile compounds of spices is key in product quality control. Accordingly, it is necessary to develop new electronic sensing systems for food adulteration control and authenticity assessment for protecting customer's health. In this work, the capability of the E-nose and VE-tongue in combination with SPME-GC-MS to correctly discriminate between several cumin samples of different geographical origins and to detect their adulteration, by using unsupervised and supervised chemometric tools, was evaluated. Regarding the aroma profile, eleven volatile compounds were characterized by SPME-GC-MS; all of them were found in cumin powder while only eight are found in cumin seeds. The main volatile compounds detected were b-pinene, m-cymene, g-terpinene, cuminaldehyde and cuminic alcohol, in different proportions depending on the cumin sample form (seed or powder). In summary, the results obtained are sufficiently encouraging as a starting point for the development of new electronic sensing systems with more improvement in the reliability of the sensor's performance as well as chemometric tools in order to deal with a complex dataset.

Even at low concentrations, this substance is not only an odour nuisance, but also a substance with ecological and climatic relevance. Therefore, BAM tested commercial electrochemical, and metal oxide based sensors, which have limited suitability for measuring in the environmental molar fraction range. Alternatively, own developments for the detection of ammonia in the trace range were implemented, wherein the analyte is measured by changing the fluorescence of a BODIPY dye at 550 nm by means of a portable fluorescence sensor directly from the gas phase. For the calibration of ammonia sensors and measuring instruments, a stationary system based on the mixture of certified test gases from pressure cylinders with calibrated mass flow controllers is available. A test gas generator was developed for on-site calibration and testing of sensors and measuring devices. The generation of ammonia-containing gases in the environmental relevant range of levels below 1000 nmol/mol is carried out by the permeation method according to ISO 6145-10. For the traceability of ammonia, standards are provided and further developed by the National Metrological Institutes and designated institutes. Metrological standards are based on SI units and are a basis for traceability of sensors or gas analysers.

T1 - HF RFID-based Measurement Comparison for Method Optimization in M2 Concrete and Alkali-Activated Mortars N2 - The internal project "SealWasteSafe" of the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing is dedicated to the further improvement in the construction of sealing systems for underground repositories of radioactive waste. Particularly, a multi-sensory concept is developed to ensure quality assurance and continuous long-term monitoring on the engineered barriers. Therefore, beside other measures, the temperature and equilibrium moisture of the construction shall be monitored and respective multi-sensoric monitoring concepts are tested first on the laboratory scale. One focus in this project is on embedded application in alkali-activated mortars (AAM), which results in special requirements for the resistance of the sensors to strongly alkaline environments with up to pH 14. In addition, the ingress of water along cables or at sensor positions is critical for sensors embedded in concrete, as the cable access of the sensor housing is a major weak point. It is therefore advisable to equip wireless high frequent radio frequency identification-based sensors, so called HF RFID sensors (short: RFID), that do not require cable access and thus have a stable and leak-proof sensor housing for long-term monitoring. In this contribution, the results from temperature, moisture and transmitted power monitoring of a AAM and a M2 specimens by means of HF RFID sensor systems are presented.

Instead, a hygroscopic ionic liquid was used as sensor coating in this work. Generated frost point temperatures tf in the gas ranged from -80 °C to -30 °C, which is equivalent to vapour mole fractions xv from 0.5 μmol·mol-1 to 376 μmol·mol-1. In addition to the coulometric sensors, the generated humidity is determined by a precision dew point hygrometer as reference.

T1 - Pollution parameters evaluation of wastewater collected at different treatment stages from wastewater treatment plant based on E-nose and E-tongue systems combined with chemometric techniques N2 - Wastewater contains harmful chemicals and heavy metals that are known to cause various environmental and health problems. Therefore, the water quality control using sensitive, simple, fast, accurate, and portable tools is of great importance. This study aimed to evaluate the pollution parameters of wastewaters collected at different treatment stages from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) that treats domestic and industrial wastewaters by using an electronic nose (E-nose) and a voltammetric electronic tongue (E-tongue) combined with chemometric techniques. Water and wastewater pollution parameters determination were performed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry for the determination of cations, and anions by using ion chromatography. Chemometric techniques, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Discriminant Function Analysis (DFA), Support Vector Machines (SVMs), and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA), were used to process the E-nose and E-tongue datasets to describe the similarities between the samples. In addition, Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) model was constructed using electronic sensing data to simultaneously predict the concentration values of physicochemical parameters. The obtained correlation coefficient, for training and testing sets, is higher than 0.91 for the prediction of the concentration of all physicochemical parameters, except for iron (Fe) which remains 0.84. These results suggest that simple, portable, and inexpensive tools such as electronic nose and tongue are suitable for wastewater analysis.

In future, environmental emissions as well as ambient air must be monitored at even lower concentrations as nowadays. Consequently, demands arouse for measuring concentrations as low as the lower ppm or even ppb range. Current state-of-the-art technologies, as for instance electrochemical sensors, have reached their limits in this regard. The developed ammonia gas standard generator produces standard gas mixtures which comply with the metrological traceability for ammonia gas standards in the desired environmentally relevant measurement range of e. g. 0.5 to 500 nmol/mol. This gas standard preparation method is based on the permeation of ammonia through a membrane at a constant temperature as well as the mixing of this permeated gas with a carrier gas to adjust a gas standard of known concentration. The ammonia gas standard is suitable for the calibration of standard optical methods, e. g cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) and multi-gas sensors. The detection of gaseous ammonia in the lower ppm or even ppb range is obtained by incorporation of a fluorescent dye, which shows fluorescence enhancement in the presence of the analyte, into a polymer support being responsible for the accumulation of the analyte. The use of optical fluorescence as transduction mechanism enables high sensitivity as well as high temporal resolution. Here, we present first results on such a sensor system including the use of the developed gas standard generator for calibration issues. Additional benefits, particularly of fluorescence-based sensors, are their capability for miniaturization and potential multiplex mode. Beside the development of a highly sensitive and selective sensor, the integration of such systems into mobile sensor devices is addressed. These sensors and sensor systems are developed and will be validated and operated in form of functional models for the application areas, structure-integrated sensors and mobile multi-gas sensors.

T1 - Determination of safranal concentration in saffron samples by means of VE-tongue, SPME-GC-MS, UV-vis spectrophotometry and multivariate analysis N2 - An experimental investigation has been carried out to characterize and discriminate seven saffron samples and to verify their declared geographical origin using a voltammetric electronic tongue (VE-tongue). The ability of multivariable analysis methods such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) to classify the saffron samples according to their geographical origin have been investigated. A good discrimination has reached using PCA and HCA in the VE-tongue characterization case. Furthermore, cross validation and Partial Least Square (PLS) techniques were applied in order to build suitable management and prediction models for the determination of safranal concentration in saffron samples based on SPME-GC-MS and UV-Vis Spectrophotometry. The obtained results reveals that some relationships were established between the VE-tongue signal, SPMEGC-MS and UV-Vis spectrophotometry methods to predict safranal concentration levels in saffron samples by using the PLS model. In the light of these results, we can say that the proposed electronic system offer a fast, simple and efficient tool to recognize the declared geographical origin of the saffron samples.

Therefore, the response time has been measured for five different-type commercially available hydrogen sensors. Experiments showed that all these sensors surpass the ISO 26142 standard; for the response times t90 values of 2 s to 16 s were estimated. Results can be fitted with an exponential or sigmoidal function. It can be demonstrated that the results on transient behaviour depend on both the operating parameters of sensors and Investigation methods, as well as on the experimental conditions: gas change rate and concentration jump.

These substances can be used as an indicator for the presence of moulds in the indoor environment. Three different mould strains were cultivated on culture media and IMS spectra of gaseous mould metabolites were recorded using a portable mini system with a tritium source and a 5 cm drift cell. The headspace spectra are characteristic for mould species and their age. Typical gaseous components of the metabolites were identified and compared with results obtained from gas chromatography using a mass spectrometer detector. It was observed that the MVOCs formation depends on mould species and their growing stage with a maximum of MVOCs emission occurring during the first 10 days. These preliminary results show that IMS can be applied to detect MVOCs in indoor environment and indicate hidden mould growth.

A1 - Kipphardt, Heinrich A1 - Tiebe, Carlo A1 - Engelhard, Carsten T1 - Towards a sensor-based methodology to determine online calorific values of H2-enriched natural gases in the grid N2 - The German National Hydrogen Strategy (NWS) envisions a transition towards a hydrogen-based energy grid. However, due to the material incompatibility of existing pipeline infrastructure for amounts of hydrogen higher than 10 cmol/mol, many system components of the existing grid must be replaced with significant costs and considerable time investments. Given these constraints, the admixture of hydrogen into natural gas (NG) to create a hydrogen-enriched NG blend has been designated as a transitional technology. The NWS supports this approach on a regional and time-limited basis, but clearly states that it is not intended as a permanent solution. Nevertheless, the conversion to a fully hydrogen-based grid is expected to take several decades. During this transitional phase, precise process analytical monitoring of hydrogen amounts in the NG blend is essential to ensure both energy efficiency via calorific value control and operational safety. These procedures require cost-effective, robust, and reliable sensor technologies capable of real-time, in situ/on-site quantification of hydrogen amounts in NG. In response to this need, we have advanced a physical sensing approach utilizing an oscillating cantilever in collaboration with Truedyne Sensor AG. This sensor system enables quantification of hydrogen amounts, direct calorific value determination as well as display of beneficial gas properties, like density, viscosity, and thermal conductivity. Moreover, the enhanced cantilever system enables direct physical sensing and can also be operated in a quasi-binary mode. We performed comparative evaluations against two benchmark sensor systems to validate the developed technology. One utilizes chemical sensing, and the other operates on thermal conductivity measurements for hydrogen quantification. Through standardized testing, we demonstrated that the cantilever-based sensor offers both high effectiveness and competitive performance compared to current state-of-the-art technologies for accurate hydrogen detection in natural gas and precise determination of its calorific value.

These microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) can be used as indicators of fungal growth even when such growth is concealed. In order to investigate the formation of these volatile metabolites on building materials, specimens of pine sapwood on agar media colonized by the dry-rot fungus Serpula lacrymans and a mixture of six moulds were examined. MVOCs from this fungal growth were studied over a period of up to half a year by ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) headspace analysis using a sensitive, portable IMS mini-device. The IMS headspace spectra from the growing fungal specimens obtained during this time span are differed from non-incubated wood specimens and indicate the presence of a mixture of MVOCs. The composition and amount of volatile metabolites of the fungi changed during cultivation. This was confirmed by a principal component analysis (PCA). Identification of different MVOCs in the headspace according to drift time and the mobility of ionized gaseous species in reference to GC-MS investigations were proposed. It was concluded that IMS can be used as a rapid and sensitive on-site method to indicate actively growing fungi concealed within wood.

Two emerging areas of application are particularly noteworthy. On the one hand, there is a strategic shift towards replacing fluorinated inert gases of gas-insulated switchgear systems, and on the other hand, cost-effective humidity measurements are gaining importance in the carbon capture and storage (CCUS) applications. The accuracy of applied sensor-based systems in these contexts must be assessed with respect to the specified threshold value of the application. However, the reliability and reproducibility of the reading have to be assessed to prevent errors. Generally, humidity measurement in gaseous carbon dioxide is feasible; however, the chemical reactivity of water with CO₂ can cause significant matrix effects. If the ITS-Sonntag equation is considered to be valid in carbon dioxide, chilled mirror hygrometers can be applied for reference measurements. Further, spectroscopic methods, like optical feedback cavity enhanced absorption spectroscopy (OFCEAS), can be applied, offering another robust reference method for determining humidity volume fractions. Here, we applied OFCEAS and a chilled mirror hygrometer for reference value determination. We verified the traceability of both instruments to our in-house gravimetric gas standards containing (100.69 ± 1.564) µmol/mol water in carbon dioxide. We further applied dynamic dilution with our in-house designed humidification unit to create sample gases that contained a volume fraction of (10 to 500) µmol/mol. In these gases, verified by OFCEAS and chilled mirror hygrometer, we conducted a measurement campaign to identify and characterize matrix effects on coulometric and capacitive sensors.

N2 - In this paper, we present an autonomous aerial robot to reconstruct tomographic 2D slices of gas plumes in outdoor environments. Our platform, the so-called Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Remote Gas Sensing (UAV-REGAS) combines a lightweight Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) sensor with a 3-axis aerial stabilization gimbal for aiming on a versatile octocopter. The TDLAS sensor provides integral gas concentration measurements but no information regarding the distance traveled by the laser diode's beam or the distribution of the gas along the optical path. We complemented the set-up with a laser rangefinder and apply principles of Computed Tomography (CT) to create a model of the spatial gas distribution from these integral concentration measurements. To allow for a rudimentary ground truth evaluation of the applied gas tomography algorithm, we set up a unique outdoor test environment based on two 3D ultrasonic anemometers and a distributed array of 10 infrared gas transmitters. We present first results showing the 2D plume reconstruction capabilities of the system under realistic conditions.

Although the therapeutic index is very narrow and the success of FA-treatment is highly dependent on various external factors, little is known about the local FA concentrations occuring in the hive. In this study we examined whether a commercially available odour measuring device (“electronic nose”) is suitable for measurements of high FA concentrations, as present during treatment. As measuring systems, two different setups were prepared for detection of FA concentrations in gas mixtures: A polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) box was used to investigate whether the electronic nose is able to distinguish between different FA concentrations and a two-storied Segeberger hive to test under realistic conditions during bee-keeping. In both experimental systems, the signals from the same sensor components (sensor type no. 1, 6, 7, 8 and 9) showed an increased sensitivity towards the presence of FA in the gas mixture. Principle component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) allowed for identification of specific patterns in the measurement signals and showed clear correlations between the signals and the present FA concentration. These results indicate that the introduced commercial multi gas sensor system is suitable for detection of high FA concentrations, and therefore could be a starting point developing a detection method of FA. The future aim is to successfully monitor the efficiency and effectiveness of this anti-varroa-treatment. T2 - 20.

Major changes in automated processes in the industry lead to an increasing demand for solutions in air quality management. Thus, occupational health experts are highly interested in precise dust and gas distribution models for working environments. For practical and economic reasons, high-quality, costly measurements are often available for short time-intervals only. Therefore, current monitoring procedures are carried out sparsely, both in time and space, i.e., measurement data are collected in single day campaigns at selected locations only. Real-time knowledge of contaminant distributions inside the working environment would also provide means for better and more economic control of air impurities. For example, the possibility to regulate the workspace’s ventilation exhaust locations can reduce the concentration of airborne contaminants by 50%. To improve the occupational health and safety of (industrial) workplaces, this work aims for developing a swarm of gas-sensitive aerial nano robots for monitoring indoor air quality and for localizing potential emission sources.

Als Messplatz zur Detektion von AS in Luft wurden zwei Systeme vorbereitet: A) Eine Plexiglasbox mit einem Volumen von ca.1,9 l diente als Prüfkammer, wurde von einem Gasstrom befeuchteter synthetischer Luft durchströmt (50 mL min-1, 100 mL min-1 oder 300 mL min-1) und zur Temperierung auf 25 °C auf einer Heizmatte bzw. auf 35 °C in einem Ofen platziert. AS-Wasser-Gemische verschiedener Volumenverhältnisse (0-100%) wurden in einer Glasschale (Oberfläche Flüssigphase 9,6 cm2) in der Prüfkammer vorgelegt. B) In einer durch eine Heizmatte auf 25 °C temperierten, zwei-zargigen Segeberger Beute wurden vier Messpunkte angebracht (davon drei in der oberen und einer in der unteren Etage) und 60%ige AS über einen Nassenheider-Verdampfer vertikal vorgelegt. Zur Detektion des AS-Luft-Gemischs wurde das PEN3 Multigassensorsystem genutzt. Das zu untersuchende Gasgemisch wurde über die internen zehn Metalloxid-Halbleiterdetektoren (1-10) der PEN3 geleitet. Das so generierte Messsignal beschreibt ein Widerstandsverhältnis zwischen dem Widerstandwert zum Zeitpunkt der Messung (R) und dem elektrischen Widerstand bei der Nullluft-Messung (R0), wobei hier befeuchtete synthetische Luft mit einer reltativen Feuchte von 49 % ± 4 % oder Raumluft genutzt wurde. Gase unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung können anhand der dargestellten Signalmuster verschiedener Sensoren voneinander unterschieden werden. In beiden Messsystemen wiesen die Sensorelemente 1, 6, 7, 8 und 9 gesteigerte Sensitivitäten beim Vorliegen von Ameisensäure im Gasgemisch auf. Die größten Widerstandsverhältnisse zeigten dabei die Sensorelemente 6, 8 und 9, sodass hier von der höchsten Empfindlichkeit für AS auszugehen ist. Basierend auf den erhobenen Messdatensätzen wurden Hauptkomponenten- (PCA) und lineare Diskriminanzanalysen (LDA) zur Dimensionsreduktion durchgeführt, um charakteristische Muster aus den Messsignalen zu extrahieren. Die PCA- und LDA-Plots für die jeweils bedeutsamsten Komponenten PC 1 und PC 2 bzw. LD 1 und LD 2 eines Versuchslaufs in der Plexiglasbox (A) bei einer Temperatur von 35°C, einem Volumenstrom von 300 mL min-1 und variablen Ameisensäure-Wasser-Volumenverhältnissen von 0 % bis 100 %. Deutlich erkennbar sind die Abhängigkeiten der Komponenten PC 1 und LD 1 (Abszissen) vom vorgelegten AS-Wasser-Volumenverhältnis. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, dass das Multigassensorsystem zur Bestimmung von AS in Luft unter ähnlichen Bedingungen wie bei einer AS-Behandlung im Bienenstock angewandt werden kann. Die Versuche zeigen, dass die im PEN3 eingesetzten Metalloxid-Sensoren bzw. Metalloxidsensor-Arrays zur Detektion von AS in Luft auch bei höheren Konzentrationen als beispielsweise der MAK-Wert von 5 µmol/mol zur Überwachung des AS-Gehaltes in Bienenstöcken angewandt werden können. Aufgrund der Möglichkeit der quasi Echtzeit-Messdatengenerierung, der geringen Kosten kommerziell verfügbarer Sensorelemente, der Portabilität und der Möglichkeit zur Miniaturisierung zeichnen sich solche Messsysteme zukünftig durch eine besondere Praxisnähe aus. Diese Erkenntnisse sind Grundlage für eine Verbesserung des Detektionsverfahrens und zur Vorhersage über die Effizienz und Effektivität der Varroha-Milbenbehandlung.

T1 - Auf dem Weg zum Monitoring der Ameisensäurekonzentration in der Bienenstock-Luft mit einem Multigassensorsystem N2 - Die Varroose gilt weltweit als eine der bedeutendsten Erkrankungen der westlichen Honigbiene, Apis mellifera. Verursacht wird sie durch den Ektoparasiten Varroa destructor, der durch Saugen der Hämolymphe und Virenübertragung sowohl die Bienenbrut als auch die adulten Individuen schädigt. Ohne imkerliche Unterstützung gehen betroffene Bienenvölker in der Regel innerhalb von drei Jahren ein. Als bewährte, häufige Behandlung wird flächendeckend 60%ige Ameisensäure (AS) - im Bienenstock appliziert über verschiedene Verdampfungssysteme - eingesetzt. Sie wirkt als einziger zugelassener Stoff gegen die Varroamilbe auch in die verdeckelte Brut hinein und birgt kein Risiko der Resistenzentwicklung. Allerdings ist das therapeutische Fenster, der Bereich zwischen Milbenabtötung und Bienenschädigung, relativ schmal und die tatsächliche AS-Konzentration im Bienenstock stark abhängig von äußeren Einflussfaktoren, wie Temperatur, Luftfeuchte oder Applikationsart. Eine Bestimmung der exakten AS-Konzentration im Bienenstock ist also notwendig, um einerseits das Wirkungsoptimum zu bestimmen und andererseits bei Übersteigen der Maximalkonzentrationen mit Folge-Schädigung der Bienen, ein rechtzeitiges Eingreifen der Imker zu ermöglichen.

T1 - Sensoren und Analytik für Sicherheit und Prozesskontrolle in Wasserstofftechnologien N2 - Die Nutzung von Sensortechnologien, insbesondere im Bereich der Gasdetektion mit einem Schwerpunkt auf Wasserstoff, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle in verschiedenen Anwendungsbereichen der Wasserstofftechnologie. Sicherheitsüberwachung, Leckdetektion und Prozesskontrolle gehören zu den prominenten Anwendungsgebieten dieser Sensortechnologien. Ein zentrales Ziel ist die Erkennung von freigesetztem Wasserstoff sowie die genaue Bestimmung des Wasserstoff-Luftverhältnisses mithilfe von Gassensoren. Dies ist von entscheidender Bedeutung, um potenzielle Gefahren frühzeitig zu erkennen und angemessene Maßnahmen zu ergreifen. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt dieses Beitrags liegt auf der Analytik und der Verwendung zertifizierter Referenzmaterialien in Verbindung mit Metrologie für die Wasserstoffspeicherung. Dies gewährleistet eine präzise und zuverlässige Charakterisierung von Wasserstoff und unterstützt die Entwicklung sicherer Speichertechnologien. Im Rahmen des Euramet-Vorhabens Metrology for Advanced Hydrogen Storage Solutions (MefHySto) wird eine Kurzvorstellung präsentiert. Der Vortrag stellt zwei zerstörungsfreie Prüfverfahren zum strukturellen Zustandsüberwachung (Structural Health Monitoring, SHM) für Wasserstofftechnologien vor. Insbesondere die Fehlstellenerkennung mittels geführter Ultraschallwellen spielt eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Lebensdauerüberwachung von Wasserstoffspeichern. Ein weiterer Aspekt ist die Anwendung faseroptischer Sensorik zur Schadensfrüherkennung von Wasserstoffspeichern. Diese zerstörungsfreien Prüfverfahren ermöglichen eine präzise und frühzeitige Identifizierung von Schäden, was die Sicherheit und Effizienz von Wasserstoffspeichersystemen entscheidend verbessert.

Therefore, international standards (e.g., ISO 14687) set a stringent threshold of 100 nmol/mol. Furthermore, with the growing potential use of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier, its accurate quantification is becoming increasingly important. However, the presence of trace humidity poses analytical challenges, as ammonia may interact with water or interfaces, thereby affecting its detectability. Therefore, the goal of this work is to enable accurate trace ammonia quantification for hydrogen purity measurements through fundamental studies of the methodological challenges. Here, low-pressure sampling (ultra)long-path Optical-Feedback Cavity-Enhanced Absorption Spectroscopy (OF-CEAS) was applied with an effective optical path length of approximately 6.17 km. We studied three average amounts of ammonia: (38.2 ± 0.8) nmol/mol, (74.8 ± 0.7) nmol/mol, and (112.1 ± 1.2) nmol/mol. Furthermore, these amounts were investigated at trace-humidity levels ranging from 0.8 to 8.5 ppmV. We observed a systematic, nonlinear, and humidity-dependent positive measurement bias of up to + (1.0 ± 0.2) nmol/mol at the maximum investigated trace-humidity volume fraction of 8.5 ppmV. This bias was not caused by spectral interference but rather by water-induced accumulation of ammonia within the optical cavity. Moreover, time-resolved measurements in the presence of trace ammonia showed that water desorption follows first-order kinetics, whereas water adsorption followed mixed-order kinetics with an apparent reaction order of 1.57 ± 0.03. Distinct hydration states of surface-bound ammonia were identified, whereas under dry conditions and with increasing amounts of ammonia, enhanced surface adhesion through intermolecular clustering was observed. In addition, the presence of ammonium species within the sorption layer was indirectly confirmed by our experiments. In conclusion, we provide a deeper insight into trace-level ammonia–water interactions and establish a framework for optimizing methodologies, particularly for (ultra)long-path optical gas measurement systems.

T1 - A metrological approach to improve accuracy and reliability of ammonia measurements in ambient air N2 - The environmental impacts of ammonia (NH3) in ambient air have become more evident in the recent decades, leading to intensifying research in this field. A number of novel analytical techniques and monitoring instruments have been developed, and the quality and availability of reference gas mixtures used for the calibration of measuring instruments has also increased significantly. However, recent inter-comparison measurements show significant discrepancies, indicating that the majority of the newly developed devices and reference materials require further thorough validation. There is a clear need for more intensive metrological research focusing on quality assurance, intercomparability and validations. MetNH3 (Metrology for ammonia in ambient air) is a three-year project within the framework of the European Metrology Research Programme (EMRP), which aims to bring metrological traceability to ambient ammonia measurements in the 0.5–500 nmol mol−1 amount fraction range. This is addressed by working in three areas: (1) improving accuracy and stability of static and dynamic reference gas mixtures, (2) developing an optical transfer standard and (3) establishing the link between high-accuracy metrological standards and field measurements. In this article we describe the concept, aims and first results of the project.

T1 - Wastewater monitoring by means of e-nose, VE-tongue, TD-GC-MS, and SPME-GC-MS N2 - The presence of wastewater and air pollution has become an important risk factor for citizens, not only in terms of problems related to health risks, but also because of its negative impact on the country's image. For this reason, malodorous emission monitoring and control techniques are in high demand in urban areas and industries. The aim of this work is first to build an electronic nose (e-nose) and a Voltammetric Electronic tongue (VE-tongue) in order to study their ability to discriminate between polluted and clean environmental samples. Secondly, Thermal Desorption-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (TD-GC-MS), and Solid Phase Micro Extraction-Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) are utilized to explain this discrimination by identifying specific compounds from these samples. Indeed, the e-nose, consisted of metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors, is used for the assessment of the studied odorous air and headspace samples from water and wastewater sites. Moreover, the VE-tongue, based on metal electrodes, is utilized to determine the patterns of the sensor array responses, which serve as fingerprints profiles of the analyzed liquid samples. Chemometric tools, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA), and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are operated for the processing of data from the e-nose and the VE-tongue. By using the both systems, the analyses of headspace and liquid samples from the seven sites allow better discrimination. To explain the cause of the obtained discrimination, TD-GC-MS and SPME-GC-MS analyses are well performed to identify compounds related sites. According to these outcomes, the proposed e-nose and VE-tongue are proved to be rapid and valuable tools for analysis of environmental polluted matrices.

A1 - Bartholmai, Matthias T1 - Development of a gas standard generator N2 - Pollution through emission of toxic gases is an increasing problem for the environment. It affects similarly agricultural, industrial and urban areas. In future, environmental emissions in ambient air must be monitored at even lower concentrations as nowadays. One environmental relevant compound is ammonia and its conversion product ammonium that have strong negative impact on human health and ecosystems. Most ammonia measurements in ambient air are performed in the range below 1000 nmol·mol 1 and thus there is a need for reliable traceable ammonia gas standards and in addition in situ analytical procedures for monitoring (in ambient air to avoid that thresholds are exceeded). Therefore, the use of reference materials is necessary for development accompanying test or for calibration, e. g. of structure-integrated sensors and mobile multi-gas sensors. The developed gas standard generator produces gas mixtures that comply with the metrological traceability for ammonia gas standards in the desired environmentally relevant measurement range. The method is based on the permeation of ammonia through a membrane at constant temperature and pressure. The resulting ammonia penetrant gas flow is then mixed with a carrier gas flow to generate a gas standard flow of known concentration. The dynamic rage is enlarged by using a two dilution steps. Depending on the permeation rate, generable molar fractions are possible in the range nmol·mol-1 to a few µmol·mol-1. We present the design of an ammonia gas standard generator and first results of the characterisation of its individual components supporting the uncertainty assessment according to GUM for stable gas concentrations in this range. The relative uncertainty of the generated ammonia gas standard is smaller than 4 % (k = 2).

The LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) is used as a communication interface to make sensor data globally accessible. The objectives of the project are to create a sensor node and an online and offline system that collects the data from the sensor nodes and stores it on a local server, in a cloud, and also locally on the node to prevent communication failures. An important point in this project is the development of the sensor nodes and the placement of these in the premises, thus no development work is involved in Building the infrastructure.

Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells are a key technology for energy conversion from hydrogen. However, high purity hydrogen is required for this technology, as described in standards such as ISO 14687:2019. A critical impurity that impairs PEM efficiency is ammonia, for which a limit value of 100 nmol/mol applies. In addition, the maximum amount of humidity is specified with 5 µmol/mol. The presence of humidity in hydrogen at levels up to 50 times higher than ammonia raises the critical question of whether ammonia can still be quantified accurately in the lower nmol/mol range without interference from water. In addition, the general question arises as to whether the critical analyte, ammonia, can still be detected at all, given the expected surface effects at such amounts of trace humidity. In this work, we describe the influence of trace humidity on the surface behavior of adsorbed ammonia on stainless steel. Samples with ammonia at approximately 100 nmol/mol in hydrogen, with trace humidity levels ranging from 3 µmol/mol to 10 µmol/mol, were carefully prepared using dynamic mixing. Humidification was conducted using an advanced saturation method. These samples were investigated under atmospheric conditions using low pressure sampling Optical Feedback Cavity Enhanced Absorption Spectroscopy (OFCEAS). From the observed time-dependent signals, kinetics were determined and analyzed, yielding insights on the strength of the adsorption behavior of the analytes.

Indeed, the potentiality of the electronic nose (e-nose) to differentiate the concentration fractions of hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and ethanol was investigated. Furthermore, the impact change of relative humidity values (from 15% to 67%) on the responses of the gas sensors was reported and revealed that the effect remained less than 0.6%. Furthermore, the relevant results confirmed that the developed e-nose system was able to perfectly classify and monitor the odorous air of poultry farms.

Dieser Stoff ist selbst in geringen Konzentrationen nicht nur eine Geruchsbelästigung, sondern auch eine Substanz mit ökologischer und klimatischer Relevanz. Die Bestimmung von Ammoniak in relevanten Konzentrationen von kleiner 25 μg m-3 erfolgt im Allgemeinen über NH4+ als Analyten, spektralfotometrisch oder mit der Ionenchromatographie nach Überführung in die flüssige Phase. Wegen der niedrigen Konzentrationen an Ammoniak in der Außenluft wird meist eine gesammelte Probe verwendet oder die Bestimmung erfolgt nach einer aktiven, anreichernden Probenahme. Die eigenen Arbeiten sollen dazu beitragen, die Ammoniak-Bestimmung in der Außenluft präziser, sowie schneller und kostengünstiger zu machen. Die BAM prüfte daher kommerzielle elektrochemische und Metalloxid-basierte Sensoren, die für diesen Konzentrationsbereich aber nur bedingt geeignet sind. Deshalb wurden alternativ eigene Entwicklungen zum Nachweis von Ammoniak im Spurenbereich aufgenommen, wobei der Analyt über die Änderung der Fluoreszenz eines BODIPY-Farbstoffs bei 550 nm mittels eines portablen Fluoreszenz-Sensors direkt aus der Gasphase gemessen wird. Zur Kalibrierung von Ammoniak-Sensoren und -Messgeräten steht ein stationäres System basierend auf der Mischung von zertifizierten Prüfgasen aus Druckflaschen mit kalibrierten Massendurchfluss-regler (MFC) zur Verfügung. Darüber hinaus erfolgt eine chemische Analyse der verwendeten Gasgemische mittels eines Massenspektrometers. Für die Kalibrierung und Prüfung von Sensoren und Messgeräten vor Ort wurde ein mobiles Prüfsystem entwickelt. Die Generierung von Ammoniak-haltigen Gasen im Spurenbereich von 0,5 nmol/mol bis 500 nmol/mol erfolgt durch das Permeationsverfahren nach ISO 6145-10. Für die Realisierung der Rückführbarkeit der Ammoniakbestimmung werden von den Nationalen Metrologischen Instituten sowie designierten Instituten Standards bereitgestellt und auch weiterentwickelt. Die primären metrologischen Standards beruhen auf SI-Einheiten und sind die Basis für eine Rückführbarkeit der Sensoren bzw. Analysengeräte. T2 - 5.

Generated frost point temperature in the gas ranged from -30 °C to -60 °C and were measured by coulometric sensors and in addition by a calibrated dew point hygrometer. The gas temperatures, which were measured by a calibrated Pt100 sensor, were set to -20 °C, 0 °C, 23 °C, 40 °C, 50 °C, and 60 °C during the experiments. Empiric nonlinear functions were calculated between the generated humidity and the sensor signals. In comparison to the measured signals at 23 °C, the sensor signals were lower at the other gas temperatures. The measurements at 60 °C showed indistinct results due to a great signal noise. The response behavior of the sensors was similar at 23 °C, 40 °C and 50 °C. In contrast to that, the sensors reacted slowly at a gas temperature of -20 °C and 0 °C. In summary, with coulometric sensors it was possible to measure continuously trace humidity with an expanded uncertainty below 2 K.

To integrate the error avoidance and loss prevention strategy into hydrogen technologies. This includes the implementation of preventive measures as elements of safety management to identify and eliminate potential sources of error.

Wenn ein verdächtiges Objekt durch Röntgenstrahlen identifiziert wurde, kann die IMS als schnelles Analyseverfahren vor Ort orthogonal zur Radiologie eingesetzt werden, um chemische Informationen über Gefahrstoffe wie Sprengstoffe oder Drogen vor dem Abflug zu erhalten. Vor der Detektion von Sprengstoffen beginnt die Untersuchung eines verdächtigen Objekts mit der Probenahme mittels Wischprobensammlern. Eine Luftsicherheitskontrollkraft wischt dabei Oberflächen des Objekts mit einem Probensammler ab, um Partikel von Gefahrstoffen zu sammeln. Der beladene Probensammler wird anschließend in einen Probeneinlass eingeführt. Nach thermischer Desorption der gesammelten Stoffe erhält der Bediener (z. B. Luftsicherheitskontrollkraft) ein boolesches Ergebnis - "Alarm" oder "Kein Alarm". Verfahren und Ergebnisse In dieser Studie wurden drei Verfahren mit vier ECAC-zertifizierten ETD-Geräten zur Entwicklung eines Unsicherheitskonzeptes bezüglich der Probenahme (PN) angewandt: I) direkte Probenaufnahme durch lösemittelbasierten Auftrag einer bekannten Sprengstoffmenge auf einem Probensammler, II) Auftragung einer bekannten Menge eines gelösten Sprengstoffs auf einem 10 cm × 10 cm Substrat (Aluminium, Papier, Eisen und Polyvinylchlorid) und manuelle PN nach Lösemittelverdampfung, III) lösemittelbasierter Sprengstoffauftrag auf eine PTFE- oder PTFE-beschichtete Glasfaseroberfläche, nach Lösemittelverdunstung trockene Übertragung auf das zu beprobende Substrat zur PN. Nach dem binären Regressionsverfahren wurde die funktionale Abhängigkeit der Detektionswahrscheinlichkeit von einer bekannten Sprengstoffmasse mit einer Logit-Funktion beschrieben: POD=1/(1+e^(-A·(m-B))). Dabei ist POD die Wahrscheinlichkeit der Detektion für eine bekannte Sprengstoff-Masse, die Parameter A (logistische Wachstumsrate der Kurve) und B (m-Wert des Mittelpunktes des Sigmoids) sind geschätzte Parameter nach der Methode der kleinsten Quadrate, und m ist die Sprengstoffmasse. Das entwickelte Messunsicherheitsmodell kombiniert quantitative Ergebnisse aus Wägen, Lösen und Pipettieren sowie qualitative Ergebnisse - "Alarm" oder "Kein Alarm" und die Unsicherheit der PN. Identifizierte Unsicherheitsursachen sind die Durchführung der Wischprobenahme, Staub, Lösemitteleffekte und die Unsicherheit bei der Herstellung von Testlösungen. T2 - 8.

T1 - On-site calibration system for trace humidity sensors N2 - A portable device for calibration of trace humidity sensors and an adopted calibration procedure have been developed. The calibration device is based on humidity generation by permeating water through polymeric membrane tubes. Water vapour transmission rates for various polymers were experimentally determined in order to select the most suitable polymeric material. The developed trace humidity generator consists of a gas-flow polymeric hose immersed in a water reservoir thermostated by a sensorcontrolled heater. Mole fractions of water vapour between 1 µmol/ molˉ¹ and 350 µmol/molˉ¹ (equivalent to frost-point temperatures from -76 °C to -31 °C) were generated by varying either the operating temperature or gas flow. The operating temperature can be varied from 20 °C to 60 °C and kept stable within 0.1 K. Uncertainty analysis indicated that the trace humidity generator produces gas flows of constant humidity amounts with a relative expanded uncertainty less than 3.4% (k = 2) of the generated value.

Das Prinzip dieser Sensoren basiert auf der Absorption von Wasser in einer hygroskopischen Schicht und anschließenderelektrolytischer Zersetzung. Die Kalibrierung der Sensoren erfolgte mit einem Spurenfeuchtegenerator bei Frostpunkttemperaturen kleiner als -30 °C bzw. einem Volumenanteil kleiner als 376 µL·L-1. Die generierte Feuchte wurde zusätzlich zu den coulometrischen Sensoren mit einem Taupunktspiegelhygrometer, welches als Referenz diente, gemessen. Zwischen dem coulometrischen Sensorsignal und der gemessenen Referenzfeuchte wurde eine empirische nichtlinare Funktion gefunden. Die resultierende Kalibrierungsfunktion, die aus zwei Parametern besteht, wurde hinsichtlich ihrer Messunsicherheit bewertet. Zusätzlich erfolgt die Überprüfung der Kalibrierparameter mittels einfaktorieller Varianzanalyse (ANOVA). Die ANOVA zeigte, dass eine gemittelte Funktion für die Feuchtigkeitbestimmung in Stickstoff, Helium und synthetischer Luft für mehrere Sensoren angewendet werden kann.

To enable a fast detection and localization of these kind of leaks, we developed a novel robotic platform for aerial remote gas sensing. Spectroscopic measurement methods for remote sensing of selected gases lend themselves for use on mini-copters, which offer a number of advantages for inspection and surveillance over traditional methods. No direct contact with the target gas is needed and thus the influence of the aerial platform on the measured gas plume can be kept to a minimum. This allows to overcome one of the major issues with gas-sensitive mini-copters. On the other hand, remote gas sensors, most prominently Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) sensors have been too bulky given the payload and energy restrictions of mini-copters. Here, we present the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Remote Gas Sensing (UAV-REGAS), which combines a novel lightweight TDLAS sensor with a 3-axis aerial stabilization gimbal for aiming on a versatile hexacopter. The proposed system can be deployed in scenarios that cannot be addressed by currently available robots and thus constitutes a significant step forward for the field of Mobile Robot Olfaction (MRO). It enables tomographic reconstruction of gas plumes and a localization of gas sources. We also present first results showing its performance under realistic conditions.

Hierfür sollen u.a. Sensornetzwerke mit digital-gestützten Auswertungsstrategien intelligent gestaltet werden (Stichwort KI bzw. digitaler Zwilling). Verschiedene, sich ergänzende Sensoren, Systemkomponenten und KI-Methoden stehen als Bausteine intelligenter Sensorsysteme zur Verfügung, mit dem Zweck, die physikalischen und chemischen Parameter an und in Anlagen umfassend und effizient zu überwachen sowie Fehlfunktionen zuverlässig zu detektieren und zu interpretieren, Abbildung 1.

To enable a fast detection and localization of these kind of leaks, BAM developed a novel robotic platform for aerial remote gas sensing. Spectroscopic measurement methods for remote sensing of selected gases lend themselves for use on mini-copters, which offer a number of advantages for inspection and surveillance over traditional methods. No direct contact with the target gas is needed and thus the influence of the copter downwash on the measured gas plume can be kept to a minimum. This allows to overcome one of the major issues with gas-sensitive mini-copters. On the other hand, remote gas sensors, most prominently Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) sensors have been too bulky given the payload and energy restrictions of mini-copters. Here, we present the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Remote Gas Sensing (UAV-REGAS), which combines a novel lightweight TDLAS sensor with a 3-axis aerial stabilization gimbal for aiming on a versatile multicopter. The proposed system can be deployed in scenarios that cannot be addressed by currently available systems and thus constitutes a significant step forward for the field of Mobile Robot Olfaction (MRO). It enables tomographic reconstruction of gas plumes and a localization of gas sources. We also present first results showing its performance under realistic conditions.

One specimen of 150 l made of alkali-activated material, which was found innovative and suitable for sealing constructions based on preliminary laboratory studies, and, for comparison purpose, another one made of salt concrete, are manufactured with an integrated multi-sensory setup for quality assurance and long-term-monitoring. The specimens were left in their cast form and additionally thermally insulated to simulate the situation in the repository. The multi-sensory concept comprises RFID technology embedded in the specimens suppling material temperature and moisture measurements, integrated fibre optic sensing allowing strain measurement and acoustic emission testing for monitoring possible crack formation. Overall, the suitability and the functionality of the sensors embedded into and attached to strongly alkaline (pH > 13 for the AAM) and salt corrosive (NaCl) environment was proven for the first 672 h. First temperature measurement based on RFID succeeded after 626 h for the alkali-activated material and after 192 h for the conventional salt concrete. Strain measurement based on distributed fibre optic sensing turned out the alkali-activated material with > 1 mm m-1 undergoing approximately twice the compression strain as the salt concrete with strains < 0.5 mm m-1. In contrast, the acoustic emission first and single hits representing crack formation in numbers, was found for alkali-activated material half of that detected at the salt concrete.

Frost point temperatures tf in the gases ranged from −60 °C to −30 °C, which is equivalent to a vapour mole fraction xv from 10 μmol mol−1 to 376 μmol mol−1. In addition, the generated humidity was determined by using a precision dew point hygrometer as reference. Nonlinear calibration functions were calculated that correlated electric current (sensor signal) and reference humidity. Parameters of functions were tested with one-way analysis of variances (ANOVA) to prove if all used sensors had a similar behavior in the same gas during experiments. Results of ANOVA confirmed that averaged functions can be applied for trace humidity measurement in nitrogen, helium, nitrous oxide, and synthetic air. The calculated functions were negligibly different for nitrogen, helium, and synthetic air. In humidified nitrous oxide, a minor change of parameters was observed due to lower electrical currents. In total contrast to that, the measured sensor signals were significantly higher in humidified hydrogen and each sensor required its own calibration function. The reason was a recombination effect that favoured multiple measurements of water molecules. Nevertheless, it was possible to measure continuously trace humidity in all tested gases by using coulometric sensors with an expanded uncertainty below 2 K (k = 2).

Air freight is of very important also for German foreign trade. Every year around 4.3 Mt of freight are loaded at German airports and transported by air planes. The average value of a transported metric ton freight was approximately 81,000 € in 2015. Nearly 50 percent of the total air freight is transported in passenger planes as belly freight. Measures are necessary to detect illegal, dangerous items such as weapons, ammunition or improvised explosive devices (IED) to protect against attacks on air traffic security. The aim is to increase security in air traffic and at the same time contemporary increasing or at least unchanged efficiency in the airfreight transport chain. IMS is a suitable instrumental technology for the trace detection of explosives (ETD) and their precursors orthogonal to radiological x-ray measurements on suspicious freight within 30 seconds and per EU regulation 2015/1998, section 6.2. The ECAC* certified ETD system QS-B220 was used. The IMS performance is demonstrated on three target compounds, TNT, RDX and PETN. The results’ evaluation of this semi-quantitative screening is carried out by using statistical methods for reliability assessment, such as probability of detection (POD) and receiver operating characteristic (ROC). Their detection limits with a POD = 0.90 are determined after swab sampling on various surfaces. These screening results provide an objective decision-making aid to responsible control personnel in addition to x-ray measurements, whether there are or are no dangerous substances or objects in the cargo. *) ECAC = European Civil Aviation Conference T2 - 26th International Conference on Ion Mobility Spectrometry CY - Ozarow Mazowiecki (Warsaw), Poland DA - 23.07.2017 KW - Air traffic security KW - Ion mobility spectrometry KW - Explosive trace detection KW - Airfreight transport chain PY - 2017 AN - OPUS4-41188 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Tiebe, Carlo A1 - Hübert, Thomas A1 - Lorek, A.

In nonviscous solvents, these compounds can populate a twisted intramolecular charge transfer state which deactivates nonradiatively, successfully suppressing fluorescence emission. Solution experiments with diesel/kerosene blends showed a good linear correlation between the fluorescence intensity of the probe molecules and the diesel fraction of the blend. The dyes have been immobilized on paper, retaining their fluorescence behavior, i.e., negligible emission in the presence of nonviscous organic solvents and increasing fluorescence when the environment is increasingly viscous. When the impregnated paper is devised as a test strip, the latter is compatible with a newly designed smartphone reader system, which allows in-the-field measurements. The method can safely detect the presence of kerosene in diesel at ≥7%, which competes favorably with current standard methods for the detection of diesel adulteration.

The principle of these sensors is based on water vapour absorption in a hygroscopic layer and its subsequent electrolytic decomposition. The calibration of sensors was performed in the humidity range, expressed as frost point temperature, from −30°C to −80°C . This range is equivalent to volume fractions smaller than 376 µL·L−1. Generated humidity was measured with coulometric sensors and a chilled dew point hygrometer that was used as reference. An empirical non-linear function was found between sensor signal and measured reference humidity. This function consists of two parameters with a measurement uncertainty. Both calibration parameters were checked by means of one-way analysis of variance. It showed that gas specific function can be used for humidity measurement in nitrogen, hydrogen, dinitrogen monoxide, compressed and synthetic air. It is possible to determine trace humidity in all tested gases with an expanded uncertainty less than 2.1 K (coverage factor k=2 ) regarding frost point temperature.

Ion-mobility spectrometry is a very promising method for detection of these MVOCs, because of its high sensitivity. For development of an in-situ method for detection of MVOCs, a portable ion-mobility spectrometer (IMS) was used and test gases of 14 MVOCs and their respective mixtures were investigated. IMS spectra were recorded as a function of concentration of MVOCs in air. Drift time and mobility of reactant ions formed in positive polarity mode were determined and correlated with the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of the MVOCs investigated. The estimated detection limit has a specific value for each MVOC and is in the range 3 to 96 µg m-3 (1 to 52 ppbV). Indoor trials show that IMS can indicate hidden mould growth.

Key aspects are the detection and evaluation of corrosion processes in reinforced concrete structures as well as the detection and quantification of very low concentrations of toxic gases in air. The adaption of sensor principles from the lab into real-life application including appropriate communication techniques is a major task. In recent years, Structural Health Monitoring have gained in importance, since growing age of buildings and infrastructure as well as increasing load requirements demand for reliable surveillance methods. In this regard, the project follows two strategies: First, the development and implementation of completely embedded sensor systems consisting of RFID-tag and in situ sensors, and their further application potential (e.g. for precast concrete elements, roadways, wind power plants, and maritime structures). Secondly, the development of a long-term stable, miniaturized, fiber optic sensor for a ratiometric and referenced measurement of the pH-value in concrete based on fluorescence detection as an indicator for carbonation and corrosion. Environmental pollution through emission of toxic gases becomes an increasing problem not only in agriculture (e.g. biogas plants) and industry but also in urban areas. This leads to increasing demand to monitor environmental emissions as well as ambient air and industrial air components in many scenarios and in even lower concentrations than nowadays. The selectivity of luminescence-based sensors is enabled by the combination of the sensing dye and the material, which is used as accumulation medium for concentration of the analyte. This principle allows for developing gas sensors with high selectivity and sensitivity of defined substances. Additional benefits, particularly of fluorescence-based sensors, are their capability for miniaturization and potential multiplex mode. Objective is the development and implementation of sensors based on fluorescence detection for defined toxic gases (ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, ozone, and benzene) with sensitivity in the low ppm or even ppb range. Additionally, the integration of such sensors in mobile sensor devices is addressed.

Electronic noses were successfully applied for headspace analysis of spices. It was demonstrated in many investigations that electronic noses can contribute to the characterization of spices and spice mixtures in order to distinguish spices and spice mixtures, differentiate by origin, growth seasons,and processing,indicate adulteration from original, detect mold infestation. Electronic noses can be used as a fast screening method to provide information about the product quality. However, it needs samples and methods for reference, careful training, and complex calibration to consider influencing and disturbing effects as well as the possible limitations of the instrumentation. The correlation to classical chemical analysis methods is always advisable. Machined olfaction methods are capable to support the sensory analysis; however, they cannot yet substitute them.

H2 can be used as fuel in fuel cells, storing surplus renewable energy, and as a feedstock in industrial processes. However, H2 faces significant safety challenges during storage and transportation. Accidents due to H2 leakage and explosions raise serious concerns due to its high flammability, rapid diffusion in air, and extremely low ignition energy. To mitigate risks associated with H2 leakages, reliable and automated H2 safety systems are essential for emergency repairs or shutdown. An early response from H2 sensors is crucial for early warning in accidents. The earlier response time of H2 sensors is often constrained by their sensor principle, which is heavily influenced by the sensor material’s properties. This study explores methods for earlier sensor response through predictive algorithms. Specifically, we investigate transient response predictions using a First-Order (FO) model and propose improvements through the First-Order with early response and the First-Order with adapted early response model. Both models can predict the stable value of the H2 sensor response from a small time window, which is 70.89% and 83.72% earlier, respectively, than the time required for the sensor hardware to reach it physically. The model’s performance is evaluated by calculating the fitting error with a 2 % threshold. Our current research lays the groundwork for future advancements in real-time sensor response predictions for hydrogen leakage.
