Th e understanding of such buildings and how the Net ZEB status should be calculated differs in most countries. This paper presents an overview of Net ZEBs energy calculation methodologies proposed by organisations representing eight different countries: Austria, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Norway, Switzerland and the USA. The different parameters used in the calculations are discussed and the various renewable supply options considered in the methodologies are summarised graphically. Thus, the paper helps to understand different existing approaches to calculate energy balance in Net ZEBs, highlights the importance of variables selection and identify possible renewable energy supply options which may be considered in calculations. Finally, the gap between the methodology proposed by each organisation and their respective national building code is assessed; providing an overview of the possible changes building codes will need to undergo in the coming years.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Musall2012, author = {Musall, Eike}, title = {Net Zero Energy Buildings - Definition and building concepts}, series = {Net Zero-Energy Buildings Conference, Lissabon}, booktitle = {Net Zero-Energy Buildings Conference, Lissabon}, address = {Lissabon}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-2014, title = {Net Zero Energy Buildings: International Projects of Carbon Neutrality in Buildings}, volume = {Detail green books}, editor = {Voss, Karsten and Musall, Eike}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {3920034805}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MusallWeissVossetal.2010, author = {Musall, Eike and Weiß, Tobias and Voss, Karsten and Lenoir, Aur{\´e}lie and Donn, Michael and Cory, Shaan and Garde, Fran{\c{c}}ois}, title = {Net Zero Energy Solar Buildings: An Overview and Analysis on worldwide Building Projects.

The first objective is a cross section analysis of a comprehensive collection of more than 280 international zero energy buildings. The aim is to show trends, motives of actors, as well as their method to reach the zero energy balance. Secondly, an in-depth study shows a rough analysis and characteristics of 50 exemplary Nets ZEBs from different countries and climate regions, as well as their combinations of measures concerning energy efficiency and renewable energy supply. It is shown that diverse actors with miscellaneous motives have lead to a lot of different building variations. Typical strategies can be assigned to the typology groups "small residential building", "apartment building" and "non residential building". Net ZEBs are much more energy efficient than average buildings which were built according to national construction and energy regulations. None of the leading Net ZEB examples exist without generation of PV electricity. Trends give an outlook of current and possible future combinations of technologies and passive measures for the realization of (future) net zero energy buildings.}, language = {en} } @article{BernhardtLeeser2017, author = {Bernhardt, Anne-Julchen and Leeser, J{\"o}rg}, title = {NEUBAU: Flexible Self-Build Cities in Germany}, series = {Architectural Design}, volume = {87}, journal = {Architectural Design}, number = {5}, publisher = {Wiley}, doi = {10.1002/ad.2213}, pages = {30 -- 37}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{ZellnerHerrmannWiesenetal.2016, author = {Zellner, R. and Herrmann, H. and Wiesen, P. and Nehr, Sascha}, title = {New and Emerging Technologies of Societal Relevance: Impact on Air Quality and Climate}, series = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, volume = {88}, journal = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, number = {9}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {0009-286X}, doi = {10.1002/cite.201650083}, pages = {1257 -- 1258}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Eilert2013, author = {Eilert, Eva}, title = {New applications of heterologous gene expression in Hansenula polymorpha for protein and metabolite production}, publisher = {Institut f{\"u}r Molekulare Mykologie, Institut f{\"u}r Mikrobiologie}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, organization = {Institut f{\"u}r Molekulare Mykologie, Institut f{\"u}r Mikrobiologie}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:061-20130527-092604-7}, year = {2013}, abstract = {The methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha has been established as a highly efficient expression system. Strong promoters derived from the methanol metabolism pathway and mitotically stable high-copy integration have made this organism very effective for heterologous protein expression. To improve the processing of secretory proteins targeted by the MFα prepro sequence, variations in the amino acid composition near the processing site of Kex2p were investigated (Manuscript I). The insertion of Ala-Pro between MFα prepro sequence and protein of interest leads to an improved processing of the signal sequence in case of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon-α 2a (IFNα-2a). Modeling of the transition sequences confirmed a better exposition of the Kex2p-cleavage site in dependency of Ala-Pro insertions. Analysis of the secreted proteins revealed activity of an Ala-Pro specific endoprotease. Partial removal of the N-terminal Ala-Pro dipeptide was also detected during IFNα-2a processing. The putative protease responsible for the processing of Ala-Pro dipeptides was identified by gene deletion. Significant similarities with Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ste13p were identified. To generally improve productivity in the H. polymorpha system new fusion protein strategies were investigated (Manuscript II). The recombinantly strongly expressed cytosolic ferritin heavy chain (FTH1) was analyzed with regard to its potential as fusion partner for difficult-to-express target proteins. A fragment of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) was chosen to explore whether fusion to FTH1 enhances PTH stability. We could show that the expression level of this fusion protein was at least of the magnitude of that of FTH1 without fusion partner. The solubility of the fusion protein was increased in comparison to FTH1 alone and no degradation of PTH occurred when fused C-terminally to FTH1. Ectoine and 5-hydroxyectoine belong to the family of compatible solutes which are known to contribute to the adaptation of the cell to osmotic stress by mediation of a constant turgor. H. polymorpha was engineered to express the enzymes of the H. elongata 5-hydroxyectoine biosynthesis pathway (Manuscript III). Expression of the enzymes EctB, EctA, EctC and EctD in H. polymorpha resulted in production of 5-hydroxyectoine in gram per liter scale with almost full conversion of ectoine to 5-hydroxyectoine. We showed that 5-hydroxyectoine synthesis was influenced by feeding of methanol during cultivation. Furthermore, 5-hydroxyectoine synthesis was downregulated by the addition of methionine, lysine or threonine indicating the existence of a feedback regulated aspartate kinase in H. polymorpha.}, language = {en} } @article{NehrFranzenReuterKucejko2017, author = {Nehr, Sascha and Franzen-Reuter, Isabelle and Kucejko, Catharina}, title = {New directions: Future approaches to the standardized assessment of airborne pollutants affecting environmental quality}, series = {Atmospheric Environment}, volume = {166}, journal = {Atmospheric Environment}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {1352-2310}, doi = {10.1016/j.atmosenv.2017.06.051}, pages = {570 -- 572}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SteffensSteeleGuastavino2015, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Steele, Daniel and Guastavino, Catherine}, title = {New Insights into Soundscape Evaluations Using the Experience Sampling Method}, series = {Proceedings of Euronoise 2015, 31 May - 3 June, Maastricht}, booktitle = {Proceedings of Euronoise 2015, 31 May - 3 June, Maastricht}, address = {Maastricht}, pages = {1495 -- 1500}, year = {2015}, language = {en} }
