The Cultivation of “Saccharomyces cerevisiae” for enzyme production was monitored using Near-infrared spectroscopy. An inline NIR optrode was therefore immersed in a 15 L vessel. The calibration was done using a Partial Least Squares (PLS) model with reference measurements of glucose, ammonium, phosphate, ethanol, and optical density. A nonlinear biological process model based on an extended Kalman Filter (EKF) was used to describe the fermentation behavior. It was found that EKF corrects inaccurate PLS predictions.
In this work, sample losses of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) have been systematically investigated with the main focus on instrumental conditions like focusing and cross-flow parameters as well as sample concentration and buffer composition. Special attention was drawn to the AF4 membrane. For monitoring possible silver depositions on the membrane, imaging laser ablation coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) was used. Our results show that the sample residue on the membrane was below 0.6% of the total injected amount and therefore could be almost completely avoided at low sample concentrations and optimized conditions. By investigation of the AF4 flows using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), we found the recovery rate in the detector flow under optimized conditions to be nearly 90%, while the cross-flow, slot-outlet flow and purge flow showed negligible amounts of under 0.5%. The analysis of an aqueous ionic Ag standard solution resulted in recovery rates of over 6% and the ionic Ag content in the sample was found to be nearly 8%. Therefore, we were able to indicate the ionic Ag content as the most important source of sample loss in this study.
Im Fokus steht die Qualitätssicherung mit Blick auf Herstellung, Modifizierung, Handling und Erprobung von PLASMA-kompatiblen Partikeln zur gepulsten in-situ Injektion von ex-situ hergestellten Partikeln für add-on Funktionen in und zur Identifikationsprüfung von BeschichTungen (PLASMA-FIT). Im Kern war zunächst zu prüfen, welche Klassen ex-situ hergestellter Partikel unterschiedlichster Materialien überhaupt bzw. unter welchen Bedingungen PLASMA-fit sind oder unter welchen Randbedingungen PLASMA-fit gemacht werden können. In den dazugehörenden Projektphasen Screening und Adaption stand dabei das komplexe Beanspruchungsszenario bestehend aus Vakuum-, Temperatur- und wenigstens kurzzeitiger Plasmabeständigkeit der ex-situ bereitgestellten Partikel im Fokus. In der Projektphase Applikation sollte dann unter Verwendung einer modifizierten Plasmaquelle (BAM-Patentanmeldung, beabsichtigte Lizenznahme durch Fa. CemeCon, Optionsvertrag) hinsichtlich der Realisierbarkeit, Prüfung und Qualitätssicherung von Plasmadispersionsschichten ein erster Praxistest zur in-situ Injektion von Partikeln in einen laufenden Beschichtungsprozess, zur Realisierung funktioneller Eigenschaften z.B. zur Identifikation oder Authentifizierung von Originalteilen, vorgenommen werden
Ziel des Projektes war, mit Hilfe von Computersimulationen die Brennfleckgröße, das Spektrum und die erreichbare Dosisleistung von Transmissionsröhren vorherzusagen sowie diese Kenngrößen zu optimieren. Hierbei sollten insbesondere die Materialien und Schichtdicken von Substrat und strahlungserzeugender Schicht untersucht werden. Eine Voraussetzung für die Überprüfung der Ergebnisse ist die reproduzierbare, korrekte messtechnische Erfassung von Brennfleckgrößen unterhalb 5 μm.
Absorption effects in total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) analysis are important to consider, especially if external calibration is to be applied. With a color X-ray camera (CXC), that enables spatially and energy resolved XRF analysis, the absorption of the primary beam was directly visualized for mL-droplets and an array of pL-droplets printed on a Si-wafer with drop-on-demand technology. As expected, deposits that are hit by the primary beam first shade subsequent droplets, leading to a diminished XRF signal. This shading effect was quantified with enhanced precision making use of sub-pixel analysis that improves the spatial resolution of the camera. The measured absorption was compared to simulated results using three different model calculations. It was found they match very well (average deviation < 10%). Thus errors in quantification due to absorption effects can be accounted for in a more accurate manner.
The special design of buildings, constructed for nuclear power plants is a particular challenge for the nondestructive testing in the building industry. In particular the major component thicknesses, the degree of reinforcement and surface coating systems make the application of NDT methods difficult. The studies first steps were undertaken to determine to which extent established applications of these techniques are useable in the field of infrastructure buildings. Methods have been evaluated that are already state of the art. So for example the ground penetrating radar was used for locating metallic mounting parts. Furthermore, the low-lying internal structure of the containment was investigated with the ultrasonic method.
Synthesis, structure determination, and formation of a theobromine: oxalic acid 2:1 cocrystal
(2015)
The structure and the formation pathway of a new theobromine : oxalic acid (2 : 1) cocrystal are presented. The cocrystal was synthesised mechanochemically and its structure was solved based on the powder X-ray data. The mechanochemical synthesis of this model compound was studied in situ using synchrotron XRD. Based on the XRD data details of the formation mechanism were obtained. The formation can be described as a self-accelerated ('liquid like') process from a highly activated species.
The use of magnetic materials as heterogeneous catalysts has attracted increasing attention in the last years since they proved to be promising candidates for water treatment. In the present study, two types of surface-modified magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, coated with non-hazardous naturally occurring agents—either tannic acid (TA) or dissolved natural organic matter—were evaluated as magnetic heterogeneous catalysts. Chemical synthesis (co-precipitation) was chosen to yield the nanocatalysts due to its well-established simplicity and efficiency. Subsequently, the properties of the final products were fully assessed by various characterization techniques. The catalytic activity in heterogeneous oxidation of aqueous solutions containing a model pollutant, Bisphenol A (BPA), was comparatively studied. The effect of operational parameters (catalyst loading, H2O2 dosage, and UV light irradiation) on the Degradation performance of the oxidation process was investigated. The optimum experimental parameters were found to be 1.0 g/L of catalysts and 10 mM H2O2, under UV irradiation. The highest mineralization rates were observed for Fe3O4-TA catalyst. More than 80 % of BPA was removed after 30 min of reaction time under the specified experimental conditions. The obtained results showed that the two catalysts studied here are suitable candidates for the removal of pollutants in wastewaters by means of heterogeneous reaction using a green sustainable treatment method.
