Highly dispersed vanadium-doped metal oxides such as VOx/ZrO2, VOx/SiO2 and VOx/TiO2/SiO2 with vanadium contents between 0 and 25 mole% were prepared by special bulk preparation methods (coprecipitation and solgel, followed by freeze-drying). Bulk and surface properties of the obtained mixed oxide solid solutions were thoroughly investigated by different analytical methods (Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, TPD, H2-TPR, oxygen isotope measurements etc.). Moreover, the catalytic behaviour of the oxides was studied for the example of the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of propane to propylene. Independent of the preparation method, the catalytic behaviour of vanadium-doped ZrO2 and TiO2 phases is very similar. Both metal oxide solid solutions are very active in propane ODH whereas the catalytic activity of VOx/SiO2 is relatively low. On the other hand, the reduction of the catalytic activity is accompanied by an improved selectivity for the formation of propylene. The correlation between the catalytic activity and the acidity of the oxide systems is discussed. Oxidation experiments with 18O2 clearly show that the ODH reaction occurs according to the Marsvan Krevelen mechanism.
Die Ausführung von Abdichtungssystemen insbesondere an Ingenieurbauwerken der Verkehrsinfrastruktur greift in die unmittelbare Verfügbarkeit/Nutzbarkeit des Bauwerks ein und erfolgt deshalb i.a.R. unter höchstem Zeitdruck. Neuere materialtechnische Entwicklungen im Bereich der Flüssigkunststoff-Systeme erlauben kürzere Ausführungszeiten in einem erweiterten Einsatzspektrum. Zur Sicherstellung anforderungsgerechter Gebrauchseigenschaften des gesamten Brückenabdichtungssystems gibt die vorliegende Veröffentlichung Hinweise für die einzuhaltenden Baugrundsätze, bautechnologische Besonderheiten und Erfordernisse im Umgang mit Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA) sowie qualitätssichernde Maßnahmen.
Earth, timber, fibre boards and insulation materials based on wooden and other natural fibres offer a variety of properties beneficial for eco innovative constructions that are able to improve the energy and resource efficiency of buildings.
Due to their porosity, natural building materials are vapour active and are able to buffer moisture. In combination with highly insulated and airtight but vapour permeable building envelopes, modern earth-timber constructions provide stable indoor humidity levels and can therefore be naturally ventilated while achieving highest energy efficiency standards. Experimental evidence suggests that monitored pilot buildings in Berlin do show healthy indoor air humidity levels (around 50%) in wintertime, while mechanically ventilated buildings demonstrate significantly lower values (around 25%), which have to be considered as uncomfortable and unhealthy.
The application of building materials being poor in chemical emissions, particularly volatile organic compounds (VOC) and radon, improves the indoor air quality further, so that intermittent ventilation twice a day will be sufficient to provide healthy indoor air quality. The air quality in critical rooms (e.g. small bedrooms), demonstrating a smaller air volume, should be monitored if appropriate ratios of room size to occupancy level cannot be realised.
Through night time ventilation in summer, vapour active earth-timber constructions provide evaporative cooling (humidity adsorption at night time and desorption during the day). As a result, indoor temperatures of earth-timber buildings range around 8 °C below the outside temperature peak, when an appropriate glazing ratio is reflected. The EU funded research project H-house is investigating various construction materials regarding water vapour adsorption as well as emission and absorption of harmful substances. Based on this investigation new wall constructions are designed to provide a healthier indoor environment.
Die größten Ressourcenverbraucher unserer Zeit sind die Gebäude oder Behausungen des Menschen sowohl in der Phase der Errichtung als auch im Betrieb. Der Gebäudesektor und damit auch die Architektur verbrauchen in Deutschland ca. 50 % der fossilen Energieressourcen und verursachen ca. 60 % des gesamten Müllaufkommens mit dem zugehörigen Bedarf an Ressourcen in der Errichtung. Öl, Stahl und Beton haben uns Glauben gemacht die natürlichen Begebenheiten bei der Gestaltung von Gebäuden wenig beachten zu müssen. Immer neue Techniken zum Betrieb und zur Klimatisierung von Gebäuden waren die Zukunft. Der Klimawandel und die Ressourcenknappheit sind Aufforderungen zur Veränderung. Das Voranschreiten der Reform des Bauwesens hat somit zentrale Bedeutung zur Erreichung der Nachhaltigkeitsziele und um unsere Gesellschaft zukunftsfähig zu machen. Klimaangepasste Architekturkonzepte und die Verwendung von klimaaktiven Naturbaustoffen werden einen wesentlichen Beitrag zum Ressourcenschutz erbringen.
Multi residential buildings, developed as highly energy-efficient and airtight are nowadays often fitted with mechanical Ventilation Systems as a way to overcome shortcomings and even defects tinked to indoor climate. The presented study investigates the potential of low-emitting. natural building materials with hygroscopic properties to contribute to a healthy and comfortable indoor environment, while reducing the need for mechanical Ventilation.
A selection of natural building materials suitable for application as internal partition walls has been investigated with regards to their water vapour adsorption capacity.
Special emphasis was placed on the investigation of modified earth plasters as well as wood-based materials, used as wall lining to provide increased adsorption capacities.
In addition, tests on materials emissions (formaldehyde, VOCs, SVOCs and radon) as well as adsorption tests of airborne pollutants have been conducted in specially-designed fest chambers. All tests were performed at either the material or the component tevel.
Overall results to date suggest that natural materials contribute to an improved indoor environment quality through an increased moisture-buffering capacity, low emissions and the potential to adsorb airborne pollutants, therefore reducing the need for mechanical Ventilation.
The European building sector is moving towards more complex and high-tech building approaches. While focusing on energy efficiency, aspects e.g. occupant health, sustainability and life cycle costing are often neglected. This study highlights the potential of earthen plasters in combination with natural ventilation for low-tech solutions.
The EU funded project [H]house established the outstanding performance of earthen materials in light of hygrothermal and air purifying properties, which were further supported by experimental data from monitoring of naturally ventilated pilot buildings in Berlin. Additionally, [H]house demonstrated through LCC an increased cost efficiency of earth based low-tech solutions in comparison to conventional constructions relying on mechanical ventilation.
