TY - CONF A1 - Schartel, Bernhard T1 - Fire Retardancy Featuring Sustainability: Food for Thought between Fake Fiction and Future N2 - Sustainability, or in other words, exploiting resources under the terms of environmental conservation for the economic welfare and prosperity continuously over time, would revolutionise the plastics industry were it to become predominant practice as a linear, fossil-fuel–based economy is switched to a carbon circular economy. Food for though is given by dint of a critical overview of the current trends and mainly by sketching our own key projects performed in the field of sustainable flame-retardant polymeric materials in the recent years.

Utilizing chemical reagents like colorimetric indicators and other chemosensors, these particles detect varying environmental conditions. We developed paper-based sensors that are both cost-effective and eco-friendly. In practical tests, these sensors, dispersed over a designated area, successfully identified hazardous substances by changing their color when exposed to acids or bases. This color change was remotely detectable using a drone-mounted color camera. The data thus obtained was processed through specialized software, accurately pinpointing areas of contamination. This method proves the efficacy and scalability of passive smart dust technology for real-time, environmentally sustainable remote sensing of hazardous materials T2 - 2024 IEEE International Symposium on Olfaction and Electronic Nose (ISOEN) CY - Grapevine, Texas, USA DA - 12.05.2024 KW - Indicator KW - Passive Smart Dust KW - Colorimetric Sensor KW - Drone KW - Cellulose KW - Environmental Monitoring KW - Confetti KW - Hazard Detection PY - 2024 SN - 979-8-3503-7053-9 VL - 1 SP - 1 EP - 3 PB - IEEE CY - Piscataway, NJ 08855-1331 USA AN - OPUS4-60176 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Stanisavljevic, Mila A1 - Essel, S.

Sensors were tested simultaneously during UAV flights over artificial gas sources, with wind data collected from two anemometers to understand plume dynamics. Field-deployed CH₄ sensors provided validation for the UAV-based measurements. The results demonstrate the sensors' effectiveness in gas detection.

The goal consisted in nvestigating a possible change of emissions into soil and groundwater of a new sporting ground as a function of ageing and egradation of the system. At various stages of the weathering, the samples were removed and subjected to especially designed column extraction tests for the solid samples. Both these extracts and the accumulated rainwater run-off of the weathering device were subjected to analytical tests of their ingredients. The overall aim of the test consisted in developing ontrollable, reproducible, and standardisable conditions and methods of investigation that would allow an estimation of the emissions in the course of outdoor application of about five years.

So far, mostly timeconsuming (micro) infrared or micro-Raman spectroscopic methods are applied. Here an faster alternative Approach is presented based on a Raman processspectrometer with fiber-optical probes in combination with multivariate data analysis. T2 - 12.

Neben der Benutzungsqualität ist auch die Bewertung möglicher negativer Auswirkungen auf die Umwelt durch produktionsbedingt enthaltene Schadstoffe notwendig. Sportböden auf Kunststoffbasis sind durch mehrlagige Aufbauten gekennzeichnet. Schadstoffe können in den oberen Lagen in den dort als Füllstoff verwendeten Gummigranulaten vorhanden sein. Die Gesamthöhe dieser Schichten umfasst in der Regel maximal 10 cm. Inhaltsstoffe können durch Regenwasser mobilisiert und mit dem Sickerwasser in den Boden und in das Grundwasser eingetragen werden. Durch eine Kombination von Elutionstests und numerischer Modellierung kann das Mobilisierungs- und Transportpotential ermittelt werden, um eine Boden- und Grundwassergefährdungsabschätzung auf Basis einer Sickerwasserprognose vorzunehmen. Die hier vorgestellte Studie „Umweltverträglichkeit von Kunststoffbelägen auf Sportfreianlagen- Modellierung der Stofffreisetzung aus Sportböden auf Kunststoffbasis zur Bewertung der Boden- und Grundwasserverträglichkeit“befasst sich ausschließlich mit der Stofffreisetzung und den Pfad Boden-Grundwasser (Boden- und Grundwasserschutz).

Neben den Feststoffwerten wird dabei das Elutionsverhalten zur Bewertung herangezogen. Durch die Umstellung des Elutionsverfahrens von einem W/F von 10 l/kg (bisherige Regelung in der LAGA M 20) auf ein W/F von 2 l/kg bestehen erhebliche Unsicherheiten im Hinblick auf die Einstufung von Bodenmaterialien zur Verwertung. Neben der Untersuchung relevanter Bodenmaterialien werden auch vorhandene Daten ausgewertet. Der Schwerpunkt der Untersuchungen wurde auf die Schadstoffgruppe der PAK gelegt. Dabei werden auch Probleme der Vergleichbarkeit verschiedener Verfahren der PAK-Analytik angesprochen.

Due to such additives in plastics, about a half of Sb ends up in municipal solid waste incineration at the end-of-life and consequently in relevant amounts in the generated bottom ash. In contact with water, the initial leachability is low, as antimonates form sparingly soluble compounds with Ca2+. Following the carbonation of the incineration bottom ash (IBA) during the proceeding ageing the pH in the leachates decreases. With decreasing concentration of Ca in the eluate the solution equilibrium changes and antimonates dissolve. In Germany it is intended to regulate Sb in IBA with the planned implementation of the so called Mantelverordnung (MantelVO, containing provisions on the utilisation of mineral waste) in the near future. The limit values set in the draft might be critical for IBA and therefore pose a risk for the utilisation of the mineral fraction of IBA in the well-established recycling routes.

Odours can be measured by applying the standard ISO 16000-28:2020. In the study presented here proposals for further technical development of the ISO method are presented. The sampling procedure and evaluation method of the perceived intensity are investigated in particular because they have a major influence on reproducibility of measurement results.
