A method for the determination of very volatile organic compounds (VVOC) in air was developed and successfully tested for methanol and ethanol. Carbotrap300® (a multi-bed tube using Carbopack C®, Carbopack B® and Carbosive SIII®) was selected as sorption material for thermal desorption and tested for its suitability for emission test chamber measurements. The adsorption behaviour and the chromatographic results are influenced negatively by spiking aqueous solutions on the adsorption medium for calibration purposes. The latter effect can be reduced by blowing dry air across the adsorbent to remove the adsorbed water. Detection and quantification limits were determined for a GC-FID system and compared to GC-MS. The applicability of the method was tested with a methanol eliminating silane modified polymeric adhesive (SMP-adhesive for parquet) in an emission test chamber
Algal blooms are a frequent phenomenon in nearly all kinds of fresh water. Global warming and eutrophication by waste water, air pollution and fertilizers seem to lead to an increased frequency of occurrence. Many cyanobacteria produce hazardous and quite persistent toxins, which can contaminate the respective water bodies. This may limit the use of the raw water for many purposes. The purification of the contaminated water might be quite costly, which makes a continuous and large scale treatment economically unfeasible in many cases. Due to the obvious risks of algal toxins, an online or mobile detection method would be highly desirable. Several biosensor systems have been presented in the literature for this purpose. In this review, their mode of operation, performance and general suitability for the intended purpose will be described and critically discussed. Finally, an outlook on current developments and future prospects will be given.
Luminescence techniques are among the most widely used detection methods in the life and material sciences. At the core of these methods is an ever-increasing variety of fluorescent reporters (i.e., simple dyes, fluorescent labels, probes, sensors and switches) from different fluorophore classes ranging from small organic dyes and metal ion complexes, quantum dots and upconversion nanocrystals to differently sized fluorophore-doped or fluorophore-labeled polymeric particles. A key parameter for fluorophore comparison is the fluorescence quantum yield (Φf), which is the direct measure for the efficiency of the conversion of absorbed light into emitted light. In this protocol, we describe procedures for relative and absolute determinations of Φf values of fluorophores in transparent solution using optical methods, and we address typical sources of uncertainty and fluorophore class-specific challenges. For relative determinations of Φf, the sample is analyzed using a conventional fluorescence spectrometer. For absolute determinations of Φf, a calibrated stand-alone integrating sphere setup is used. To reduce standard-related uncertainties for relative measurements, we introduce a series of eight candidate quantum yield standards for the wavelength region of ~350950 nm, which we have assessed with commercial and custom-designed instrumentation. With these protocols and standards, uncertainties of 5–10% can be achieved within 2 h.
Für die optische Erwärmung von Prüfteiloberflächen sind Blitz- und Halogenlampen Stand der Technik. Der Vorteil dieser Wärmequellen liegt in ihren relativ geringen Anschaffungskosten bei gleichzeitig hohen Leistungsdichten am Prüfobjekt. Nachteilig ist bei den Halogenlampen die Limitierung der möglichen Modulationsffequenz auf ca. 1 Hz für die Anwendung dieser Quelle in der Lockin-Thermografie. Blitzlampen bieten für gewöhnlich nur eine feste Blitzdauer bei einer geringen Taktrate. Beide Anregungsquellen müssen in Reflexionsanordnung mit Filtern betrieben werden um die entstehende thermische Eigenstrahlung als Störquelle zu eliminieren. Wir stellen Untersuchungen an Hochleistungs-LEDs für den Einsatz in der aktiven Thermografie vor. Diese Lichtquellen werden durch die rasante Entwicklung der möglichen Leistungsdichten nun auch für die thermografische ZfP interessant. Sie zeigen ähnlich dem Laser eine schmale und auf den Werkstoff abstimmbare spektrale Verteilung der Strahlungsleistung bei moderaten Kosten. Die zugrunde liegende Elektrolumineszenz generiert kaum Wärmestrahlung und ermöglicht dadurch die Prüfung während des Erwärmungsvorganges ohne größeren Aufwand. Modulationsfrequenzen über 100 Hz mit thermischen Eindringtiefen < 1 mm sind möglich. Dadurch qualifizieren sich die LEDs zur Anwendung in der Lockin-Thermografie von Metallen und zur oberflächennahen Prüfung von Schichtsystemen. Durch die fast verzögerungsffeie Reaktion der LED auf das steuernde Signal sind nahezu beliebige zeitliche Anregungsformen möglich. Mit solch flexiblen Anregungsformen ließen sich bereits bei den photothermischen Verfahren erfolgreich höhere Tiefenreichweiten und -auflösungen gegenüber den klassischen Methoden der monofrequenten Lockin - und energiereichen Kurzimpuls-Anregung erzielen. Untersuchungen dieser Möglichkeiten im praktischen Einsatz der HochleistungsLEDs werden vorgestellt und mit herkömmlichen Lichtquellen verglichen.
Odour measurements become increasingly important in view of the assessment of indoor air quality and the emissions of building products. Hence they need to be implemented into evaluation schemes such as the AgBB scheme. While there are already standards like DIN ISO 16000-28 and VDI 4302 Part 1 specifying the procedure of odour measurements using a comparison scale, no final validation of the method has been carried out so far. Therefore, a round robin test was conducted in 2012 with 12 participating laboratories that mainly consisted of the following two parts: 1) testing of the available comparison scales with respect to their operational performance and 2) execution of an odour assessment of an acrylic sealant using emission test chambers. Part one included the measurement of the air flow rates and the provided concentrations of the reference substance (acetone). Part two was conducted to test the performance of the laboratories and the applicability of DIN ISO 16000-28 and supplementary VDI 4302 Part 1 by assessing the perceived intensity and the hedonic tone of the air samples. Moreover, samples for VOC analysis were taken from the air in the emission test chamber on the 7th day of testing to allow for quality control. Resulting from this round robin test main deficits were detected and suggestions for the improvement of the odour measurement procedure were made.
A major requirement for the validation of methods assessing the risk associated with engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) is the use of reference materials (RMs). In the present contribution we review available RMs, ongoing projects and characterisation trends in the field. The conclusion is that actual approaches to RMs mostly deal with metrological considerations about single properties of the ENPs, typically their primary size, which can hardly be representative of nanoparticles characteristics in real testing media and therefore, not valid for reliable and comparable toxicological studies. As an alternative, we discussed the convenience and feasibility of establishing multi-parametric RMs for a series of ENPs, focusing on silica nanoparticles (SNPs). As a future perspective, the need to develop RMs based on hybrid nanoparticles is also discussed.
PLR Prüftechnik Linke & Rühe Magdeburg und die BAM Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung Berlin haben in Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Partnern im Laufe der letzten Jahre verschiedene Wirbelstromsysteme zur Prüfung verlegter Schienen auf rissartige Fehler des Typs Head Checks entwickelt. Die Entwicklung dieser Systeme erfolgte mit dem Ziel, ein Hilfsmittel für die Planung von Schieneninstandhaltungsmaßnahmen zu schaffen. Die Systeme haben sich im praktischen Prüfeinsatz bewährt. Hierzu wurde regelmäßig auf den vorhergehenden Tagungen berichtet. Bei der Schieneninstandhaltung kommen unterschiedliche Typen von Schienenbearbeitungsmaschinen zum Einsatz, z. B. Schienenfräs- und Schleifzüge. Seit einiger Zeit wird von Seiten der Schienennetzbetreiber vermehrt ein Qualitätsnachweis nach erfolgter Schienenbearbeitung gefordert. Hierzu wurde ein Wirbelstromprüfsystem entwickelt, dass speziell an die Erfordernisse der Qualitätsüberwachung in Schienenbearbeitungsmaschinen angepasst ist. Das Prüfsystem wird vorgestellt und über erste Erfahrungen aus dem praktischen Einsatz wird berichtet.
Ultrasonic echo and transmission techniques are used in civil engineering on a regular basis. New sensors and data processing techniques have lead to many new applications in the structural investigation as well as quality control. But concrete structures in the nuclear sector have special features and parameters, which pose problems for the methods and instrumentation currently available, e.g. extreme thickness, dense reinforcement, steel liners or special materials. Several innovative ultrasonic techniques have been developed to deal with these issues at least partly in lab experiments and pilot studies. Modern imaging techniques as multi-offset SAFT have been used e. g. to map delaminations. Thick concrete walls have successfully been inspected, partly through a steel liner. Embedded ultrasonic sensors have been designed which will be used in monitoring networks of large concrete structures above and below ground. In addition, sensitive mathematical methods as coda wave interferometry have been successfully evaluated to detect subtle changes in material properties. Examples of measurements and data evaluation are presented.
Indirect UV-absorption spectrometry was shown to be a valuable tool for chemical characterization of functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs). It complements data from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) or FTIR analysis since it helps to clarify the type and concentration of functional groups. The principles of indirect application of UV-spectrometry and its mathematical interpretation are discussed. Their facile application, together with their adequate sensitivity and high flexibility, make UV-absorption-based approaches a valuable alternative to fluorescence spectrometry. Here, the approach was applied to the chemical analysis of oxidizing substances on CNTs. For this, pristine CNTs of low but finite oxygen content as well as brominated CNTs were analyzed by reaction in suspension with UV-active thiol reagents and a styrene derivative. It was shown that carefully selected reagents allow differentiation and quantification of bromine and generally oxidizing entities like oxygen. For brominated CNTs, it was shown that physisorbed bromine may dominate the overall bromine content.
