In the modern world there is an increased understanding that design and performance monitoring of materials have to be tested in connection to chemical, physical and (micro)biological challenges. A systematic study on how biofilms interact with materials and what could be done to engineer biofilms and/or materials in order to maximize the resistance of the material (surface) or the resistance the biofilm-modified material (bulk) is in strong need. In the Department “Materials and the Environment” of the BAM new experimental platform is being developed. With the help of different type of device for high throughput and microbiologically-controlled environment simulation we establish a new approach to clarify the mechanisms of biofilm/material interactions. Despite the focus on fundamental research, the main results of this project proposal will be transferable into material technology and construction chemistry and will influence the development of standardization in this topic. As the interactions of biofilms and materials have implications for most constructions as well as climate change, the results of the research generates additional value.
The story of how black fungi survive harsh conditions on sun-exposed desert rocks and material surfaces is fascinating. In the presentation examples of how knowledge of these organisms can be of practical value (e.g., in biodeterioration studies, such as on stone markers in cemeteries) would be given. Among other stories, the example of how roof tiles amended with a titanium oxide layers as a biocide actually selected for the black fungi will be told. A hypothesis about how these organisms would likely be found on solar panels and some early BAM work in that area will be presented. This then brings the connection to a study ripe for investigation in North Carolina. The talk presents the development of a study aiming at deciphering the influence of microbial biofilm formation on the energy conversion efficiency of solar photovoltaic panels or modules at two facilities (one facility under the impact of high intensity of animal agriculture and high deposition of ammonia from atmosphere and the other with low animal agriculture and lower atmospheric ammonia deposition) in North Carolina. The main hypothesis of the study is that microbial biofilm formation on solar photovoltaic panels will lead to significant decreases in energy conversion efficiency of solar photovoltaic modules and biofilm formation will also be accelerated by high ammonia concentration in the ambient atmosphere and high nitrogen deposition.
Boden und Steine sind mit jährlich etwa 140 Mio t der mengenmäßig größte Abfallstrom in Deutschland. Bodenmaterial kann in Abhängigkeit seiner vorherigen Nutzung oder Herkunft mit Schadstoffen belastet sein. Seine weitere Verwertungsmöglichkeit hängt nicht nur vom Schadstoffgehalt im Feststoff, sondern auch von der Mobilisierbarkeit dieser Stoffe ab.
Die Paragraphen 6 bis 8 der vorgesehenen Novelle der BBodSchV enthalten neue Vorgaben hinsichtlich des Auf- und Einbringens von Bodenmaterial unterhalb oder außerhalb einer durchwurzelbaren Bodenschicht (4. Referentenentwurf Mantelverordnung, Stand: 06.02.2017). Es soll die Möglichkeit eingeräumt werden, Bodenmaterialien mit Feststoffgehalten von regulierten Stoffen bei Überschreitung des Vorsorgewertes einer weiteren Verwertung zuzuführen unter der Voraussetzung, dass die Eluatwerte eingehalten werden. Für die Auswirkung dieser neuen Regelungen auf die Verwertung von Bodenmaterialien bestehen bisher noch Datendefizite besonders für organische Stoffe.
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 zusätzliche Unsicherheiten im Hinblick auf die Einstufung von Bodenmaterialien zu Verwertungszwecken.
Im Rahmen eines UFOPLAN-Projektes (FKZ 3716 74 203 0) wurden unterschiedliche Bodenmaterialien verschiedenen Ursprungs (z.B. Baggergut, Bankettschälgut, Stadt- und Auenböden, Bergematerial) mit besonderem Fokus auf PAK untersucht. Von den unter die Kriterien fallenden, ausgewählten Bodenmaterialien wurden Feststoffgehalte, TOC-Gehalte sowie die Eluatwerte aus Säulenversuchen nach DIN 19528 und Schüttelversuchen nach DIN 19529 bei einem Wasser-/Feststoffverhältnis (W/F) von 2 l/kg und 10 l/kg ermittelt und gegenübergestellt.
Mit den neuen und auch mit Auswertung vorhandener Daten kann hinsichtlich PAK gezeigt werden, dass mit Verabschiedung der neuen Regelungen sich zusätzliche Verwertungsmöglichkeiten von Bodenmaterialien außerhalb der durchwurzelbaren Bodenschicht eröffnen und deren Deponierung vermieden werden kann. Analysen zu anorganischen Schadstoffen wurden parallel miterfasst und ausgewertet.
Paragraphs 6 to 8 of the proposed amendment to the German Federal Soil Protection and Contaminated Sites Ordinance contain new requirements regarding the application of soil-like material outside of a rootable soil layer. For example, it is intended to enable reusing of soil-like materials containing regulated substances in concentrations between the single and double precautionary values (PV), provided that the limit values for the eluate are complied with. The aim of a running project (funding code UFOPLAN 3716 74 203 0, German Federal Environmental Agency) is to fill data deficits for soil-like materials which meet the above-mentioned criteria to promote circular economy and conservation of natural resources. Different soil-like materials of various origin (for example dredged material, banquet peeling material, urban and meadow soils) are considered with a special focus on PAHs. A major challenge in sample acquisition is the relatively narrow target range of the PAH content between 3 and 6 mg/kg dm considering a high measurement uncertainty at this concentration level.
The contents of PAHs, heavy metals and other inorganic elements in solid matter are determined following established standards. In addition, the soil-like materials are characterized concerning particle size, pH, conductivity, SOM, TOC and carbonate content. To determine the eluate concentration, column tests according to DIN 19528 and batch tests according to DIN 19529 at a liquid/solid ratio (L/S) of 2 l/kg and 10 l/kg are performed comparatively.
The results show that the new requirements of the planned amendment to the Federal Soil Protection and Contaminated Sites Ordinance certainly opens additional possibilities for reuse of soil-like materials. Even most soil-like materials within 2-3 x PV comply with the eluate value for PAH (0.2 μg/l) both in the batch test and in the column test at L/S 2 l/kg. Selected inorganic substances lead to similar evaluations. Therefore, the application of such soil-like materials outside of rootable soil layers would be possible. Previously, those materials were often used for landfill construction. In the future, a utilization in the adjacent environment by backfilling, recultivation, renaturation, composting or landscaping would be conceivable.
Dem Fachbeirat Bodenuntersuchungen des BMBF/UBA wurden Ergebnisse aus BISp-Forschungsvorhaben zur Untersuchung der Stofffreisetzung aus Sportböden auf Kunststoffbasis sowie zur Modellierung des Schadstofftransfers auf dem Pfad Boden-Grundwasser vorgestellt. Dabei wurde auch auf die derzeitigen gesetzlichen Regelungen auf EU Ebene und die vorhandenen Anforderungen in der Normung eingegangen. Der verbliebene Forschungsbedarf wurde aufgezeigt und dabei auch die Problematik der Bildung von Mikroplastik im Zusammenhang mit Sportböden thematisiert.
Verwertung von Bodenmaterialien - Ergebnisse aus dem UFOPLAN-Vorhaben und Transfer der Ergebnisse
(2019)
Dem Fachbeirat Bodenuntersuchungen des BMBF/UBA wurden Ergebnisse zum UFOPLAN-Forschungsvorhaben „Monitoring zur Verwertung von Bodenmaterial“ vorgestellt. Die potentielle Auswirkung der neuen Regularien in der geplanten Novelle der BBodSchV (4. Referentenentwurf der Mantelverordnung) auf die Erweiterung der Verwertungsmöglichkeiten von Bodenmaterialien wird aufgezeigt. Probleme des Umgangs mit der analytischen Messunsicherheit im Grenzwertbereich und mit der Vergleichbarkeit der zugelassenen Elutionsverfahren werden diskutiert.
Background. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a toxic low-molecular-weight secondary fungal metabolite produced mainly by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus not only at pre-harvest time but also at post-harvest stages including storage. AFB1 was classified as a Group I carcinogen by the World Health Organization for Research on Cancer in 1993. AFB1 is able to naturally contaminate medicinal plants and therefore causing serious health issues for humans consuming the related medicine. This study aimed to develop an efficient fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) and for the first time a rapid (5-10 min), low-cost, and simple membrane-based flow-through immunoassay (MBA) for determination of AFB1 in medical herbs based on a monoclonal antibody.
Methods. Two different techniques for AFB1detection in medical herbs (Herba Orígani vulgáris, Folia Urticae, Fructus Rubi idaei) were developed and compared, namely an easy-to-use semi-quantitative flow-through membrane-based enzyme immunoassay (MBA), and a homogeneous method which needs no separation or washing steps (assay time 10 min), a quantitative fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA).
Results. A cut-off level of the developed MBA can vary wide from 0.8 ppb to 1 ppb. The FPIA method showed a linear working range of 8.6 ppb to 64 ppb, IC50 of FPIA is 24 ppb. The results were in good correlation with the ELISA results (IC50 = 0.1 ppb). LC–MS/MS was used to confirm the results, too.
Conclusion. MBA can be used for a quick on-site AFB1 detection in medical herbs (Herba Orígani vulgáris (Oríganum vulgáre), Folia Urticae (Urtíca dióica), Fructus Rubi idaei (Rúbus idáeus)), the developed test does not require special equipment and is not time-consuming (5-10min), includes several simple steps and can be performed directly on-site. The major advantages of the developed FPIA are its simplicity and suitability for a rapid screening of a large number of samples.

In addition to previously reported results on the accelerated weathering of polystyrene samples (PS) containing 1 wt.% hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), we present the first results of our investigations of polypropylene samples (PP) containing 0.1 wt.% BDE-209. All studied polymer samples were exposed to a defined weathering schedule in a climate chamber in accordance to regulation EN ISO 4892-3:2006. For the determination of BDE-209 in the collected raining water the samples were prepared in accordance to a validated protocol. Before the analyses each sample was spiked with isotopically labeled BDE-209. Subsequently the samples were extracted with isooctane. The obtained extracts were concentrated, and the resulting solutions were analyzed by GC/MS. Additionally, the total bromine content was monitored for the weathered and untreated samples using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) and X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) as a non-destructive and rapid method. In general, the resulting data from the accelerated weathering will be compared to those from the natural weathering experiments. Here, the surfaces of the test pieces were analyzed by LA-ICP-MS and XRF as well. Moreover, soil bed tests were conducted in a well characterized model soil. This soil (boulder-clay, sand with 12 % loam, particle size in total 0.2-4 mm) is filled in a free-draining basin inside of an air-conditioned cellar. In this manner, TOC, water capacity and humidity are recorded parameters. To induce a leaching process from the samples by the raining water, the target water content is calculated to 8%. The actual humidity is measured by a tensiometer, assuring the duration of the raining period. A defined humidity is a fundamental parameter for a biological activity in the soil. The test polymers were placed up to the half in the soil. Microbial activity of the soil is monitored by a reference polymer (polyurethane) and should induce the release of HBCD and BDE-209 out of the test materials. These released analytes will be captured by passive samplers (silicone tubes) placed in a distinct distance to the polymer samples in the soil. The soil bed experiments are complementary to the weathering experiments due to the biological activity in the soil.
