Leaching experiments on the release of heavy metals and PAH from C&D waste and MSWI bottom ash
(2010)
Leaching tests are fundamental tools for the assessment of long-term impact of
contaminated waste materials on the soil-groundwater pathway. Waste materials should be
tested under conditions equal to their actual application in re-use scenarios to achieve reliable
results. Since the standards for leaching procedures available on international level so far are
either not validated or considered inadequate in respect to coarse grained materials, new
standards had to be developed. Therefore column percolation and batch test procedures have
been standardized and validated to enable their introduction to new German regulations
concerning waste management. Practical aspects of the test procedures as well as the
boundary conditions compared to the already existing standards will be described. Examples
including round robin test results will be given to justify the selection of the new
specifications.
Langzeitbeständigkeit von permeablen reaktiven Wänden zur Sanierung kontaminierter Grundwässer
(2003)
Seit 1829 wird die Farbe Cadmium Gelb in der Malerei verwendet, Cadmium Rot seit 1907. Wegen ihrer Klarheit und Leuchtkraft werden diese Farben von vielen Künstlern geschätzt. Aus Schweden kommt nun der Vorstoß, die Cadmium-Farben zu verbieten, weil das Schwermetall Cadmium zur Verunreinigung landwirtschaftlicher Flächen führen könnte. Sie beraten die Europäische Chemikalienagentur ECHA, die für das Verbotsverfahren zuständig ist. Müssen Künstler in naher Zukunft auf Cadmium Gelb und Cadmium Rot verzichten?
Warum eine Kreislaufwirtschaft ohne Abfallverbrennung nicht funktionieren wird, beschreibt die Dechema im Positionspapier „Abfallverbrennung in der Zukunft“. Experten der Fachgruppe „Abfallbehandlung und Wertstoffrückgewinnung“ von ProcessNet, einer gemeinsamen Initiative der Dechema und der VDI-Gesellschaft Verfahrenstechnik und Chemieingenieurwesen, haben es erstellt.
Kreislauf von Ressourcen
(2013)
Die Materialflüsse in Industriegesellschaften sind von enormer Größe. Im Jahr 2008 betrug der direkte Materialeinsatz (direct material input, DMI) (Czichos et al., 2008) in Deutschland 1687 Millionen Tonnen (Daten von destatis, 2010). Dazu gehören Energieträger (Kohle, Öl, Gas), Erze, Baumaterialien, Industrieminerale und Biomasse. Knapp 36 % davon (605 Millionen t) werden importiert. Mit zu berücksichtigen sind bei den Materialflüssen auch die nicht verwerteten Rohstoffentnahmen (z.B. Abraum im Bergbau, Bodenaushub, Bergematerial, Verbleib von Holzabfallen im Wald), die sich für die inländische Rohstoflentnahme auf 2229 Millionen Tonnen beliefen. Die nicht verwerteten Rohstoffentnahmen bei den Importen sind mehr als der Faktor 4 höher (2543 Millionen t) (Buyny et al., 2009).
Auf der Outputseite geht von diesen riesigen Mengen der größere Anteil in den Bestand (net addition to stock, 637 Millionen t), der nächst größere Anteil in den Export (388 Mt). Immerhin 256 Millionen Tonnen werden durch dissipative Nutzung in der Umwelt verteilt. Die Bilanz geht auf, wenn man Gase auf der Inputseite und Emissionen in die Atmosphäre auf der Outputseite (Verbrennung von fossilen Rohstoffen zu CO2 und Wasser) berücksichtigt. An diesen Zahlen erkennt man, dass Ressourcen nur in beschränkten Maß im Kreislauf geführt werden, sonst wäre der Zuwachs zum urbanen Lager nicht so groß.
Investigation on the Durability of a Polypropylene Geotextile under Artificial Aging Scenarios
(2024)
Geosynthetics are widely used in various civil engineering applications, such as geotextiles in coastal protection, and display a sustainable alternative to natural mineral materials. However, the full benefits of using geosynthetics can only be gained with a long service lifetime of the products. With the use of added stabilizers to the polymers, service lifetimes can be achieved in the range of 100 years. Therefore, accelerated aging methods are needed for the assessment of the long-term performance of geotextiles. In the present study, the behavior of geosynthetic materials made of polypropylene was investigated under artificial aging conditions involving elevated temperatures ranging from 30 to 80 °C, increased oxygen pressures ranging from 10 to 50 bar in water-filled autoclaves, and UV irradiation under atmospheric conditions. ATR-IR spectroscopy was employed to detect the increase in the carbonyl index over various aging durations, indicating the oxidative degradation of the geotextile. The most pronounced increase was observed in the case of aging through UV irradiation, followed by thermal aging. Elevated pressure, on the other hand, had a lower impact on oxidation. High-temperature size exclusion chromatography was utilized to follow the reduction in molar mass under different degradation conditions, and the results were consistent with those obtained from ATR-IR spectroscopy. In polyolefins such as polypropylene, Hindered Amine Stabilizers (HAS) are used to suppress oxidation caused by UV radiation. The quantitative analysis of HAS was carried out using a UV/Vis method and HPLC. The degradation of UV stabilizers during the aging of geotextiles is responsible for the oxidation and the reduction in the molar mass of polypropylene. From the results, it can be concluded that applications of PP geotextile without soil or sand cover might cause the risk of the formation of microplastic particles. Material selection, design, and maintenance of the construction must follow best practices, including the system’s removal or replacement at end-of-life. Otherwise, a sustainable use of geotextiles in civil engineering is not possible.
Here, we report a comparative study of different sum parameter analysis methods for the extraction of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from manufactured consumer products, which can be measured by combustion ion chromatography (CIC). Therefore, a hydrolysis-based extraction method was further developed, which accounts for the addition of hydrolyzable covalently bound polyfluoroalkylated side-chain polymers (SFPs) to the extractable organic fluorine portion of the mass balance proposed as "hydrolyzable organically bound fluorine" (HOF). To test this hypothesis, the method was applied to 39 different consumer products containing fluoropolymers or monomeric PFAS taken from four different categories: outdoor textiles, paper packaging, carpeting, and permanent baking sheets. We also evaluated the method's efficiency by extracting four synthesized fluorotelomer polyacrylate reference compounds. The total fluorine (TF) and extractable organically bound fluorine (EOF) values were measured through CIC using established protocols. The TF values ranged from sub-ppb to %-levels, depending on the compound class. All samples showed results for hydrolyzed organofluorine (HOF) between 0.03 and 76.3 μg/g, while most EOF values were lower (<LOD to 58.1 μg/g). Moreover, the methods were contrasted with the "total hydrolyzable precursor" (THP) assay analyzed using gas-chromatography coupled mass spectrometry (GC-MS), which yielded concentrations of 6:2–10:2 fluorotelomer alcohols (<LOD-568 μg/g) for textile and paper samples. Furthermore, targeted analytical investigation of 25 compounds via liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was conducted and accounted for significantly lower sum amounts (<LOD-0.98 μg PFAS/g). To estimate the fluorine mass balance of all methods, the fluorine levels of target analytical data were calculated and compared to the sum parameter values and evaluated. Finally, the efficiency of the extraction method was approximated by the recovery analysis of four selected SFP model compounds compared to their TF values, yielding 36.7–74.0% after extraction and 3.8–36.3% after processing the extract for the HOF sum parameter.
