20. Theorietag der GI-Fachgruppe "Automaten und Formale Sprachen''

Die Fachgruppe AFS (früher Fachgruppe 0.1.5) der Gesellschaft für Informatik veranstaltet seit 1991 einmal im Jahr ein Treffen der Fachgruppe im Rahmen eines Theorietags, der traditionell eineinhalb Tage dauert. Seit dem Jahr 1996 wird dem eigentlichen Theorietag noch ein eintägiger Workshop zu speziellen Themen der theoretischen Informatik vorangestellt. In diesem Jahr wurde der Theorietag vom Fachgebiet "Theoretische Informatik" des Fachbereichs Elektrotechnik/Informatik der Universität Kassel organisiert. Er fand vom 29.9. bis 1.10.2010 in Baunatal bei Kassel statt. Dabei stand der begleitende Workshop unter dem allgemeinen Thema "Ausgewählte Themen der Theoretischen Informatik". Als Vortragende für diesen Workshop konnten Carsten Damm (Göttingen), Markus Holzer (Giessen), Peter Leupold (Kassel), Martin Plátek (Prag) und Heribert Vollmer (Hannover) gewonnen werden. Das Programm des eigentlichen Theorietags bestand aus 20 Vorträgen sowie der Sitzung der Fachgruppe AFS. In diesem Band finden sich die Zusammenfassungen aller Vorträge sowohl des Workshops als auch des Theorietags. Desweiteren enthält er das Programm und die Liste aller Teilnehmer.

Nachhaltigkeit bei der Konversion militärischer Liegenschaften zu Hochschuleinrichtungen - untersucht am Beispiel der Universität Lüneburg

Nachhaltige Konversion bei der Herrichtung frei gewordener militärischer Liegenschaften, insbesondere zu Hochschuleinrichtungen, ist mit großen Herausforderungen verbunden. Abgestimmte Raumbedarfe, nutzungsgerecht und wirtschaftlich vertretbar, in der Struktur einer ehemaligen Kaserne umzusetzen, erfordert ein kompetentes Projektmanagement mit allen erforderlichen Fachplanern. Maximale Ausnutzung der vorhandenen Raumstrukturen und weitestgehende Weiterverwendung der bestehenden Bausubstanz der Kasernengebäude haben Priorität und erhöhen u. a. den Wert der Nachhaltigkeit. Bei erforderlichen Neubauten auf ehemals militärisch genutzten Arealen sind unter Beachtung der wirtschaftlichen Vertretbarkeit das Erzielen der höchsten Energieeffizienz, die intelligente Umsetzung der Nutzerbelange und die weitreichende Schonung der Ressourcen unerlässlich. Das Buch mit seinen Nachhaltigkeitsanalysen dient als Arbeitshilfe für Baufachleute zur Umsetzung von Nachhaltigkeitszielen bei der Planung und der Realisierung ihrer Konversions-Bauvorhaben.

Impact of sward type, cutting date and conditioning temperature on mass and energy flows in the integrated generation of solid fuel and biogas from semi-natural grassland

Energy production from biomass and the conservation of ecologically valuable grassland habitats are two important issues of agriculture today. The combination of a bioenergy production, which minimises environmental impacts and competition with food production for land with a conversion of semi-natural grasslands through new utilization alternatives for the biomass, led to the development of the IFBB process. Its basic principle is the separation of biomass into a liquid fraction (press fluid, PF) for the production of electric and thermal energy after anaerobic digestion to biogas and a solid fraction (press cake, PC) for the production of thermal energy through combustion. This study was undertaken to explore mass and energy flows as well as quality aspects of energy carriers within the IFBB process and determine their dependency on biomass-related and technical parameters. Two experiments were conducted, in which biomass from semi-natural grassland was conserved as silage and subjected to a hydrothermal conditioning and a subsequent mechanical dehydration with a screw press. Methane yield of the PF and the untreated silage was determined in anaerobic digestion experiments in batch fermenters at 37°C with a fermentation time of 13-15 and 27-35 days for the PF and the silage, respectively. Concentrations of dry matter (DM), ash, crude protein (CP), crude fibre (CF), ether extract (EE), neutral detergent fibre (NDF), acid detergent fibre (ADF), acid detergent ligning (ADL) and elements (K, Mg, Ca, Cl, N, S, P, C, H, N) were determined in the untreated biomass and the PC. Higher heating value (HHV) and ash softening temperature (AST) were calculated based on elemental concentration. Chemical composition of the PF and mass flows of all plant compounds into the PF were calculated. In the first experiment, biomass from five different semi-natural grassland swards (Arrhenaterion I and II, Caricion fuscae, Filipendulion ulmariae, Polygono-Trisetion) was harvested at one late sampling (19 July or 31 August) and ensiled. Each silage was subjected to three different temperature treatments (5°C, 60°C, 80°C) during hydrothermal conditioning. Based on observed methane yields and HHV as energy output parameters as well as literature-based and observed energy input parameters, energy and green house gas (GHG) balances were calculated for IFBB and two reference conversion processes, whole-crop digestion of untreated silage (WCD) and combustion of hay (CH). In the second experiment, biomass from one single semi-natural grassland sward (Arrhenaterion) was harvested at eight consecutive dates (27/04, 02/05, 09/05, 16/05, 24/05, 31/05, 11/06, 21/06) and ensiled. Each silage was subjected to six different treatments (no hydrothermal conditioning and hydrothermal conditioning at 10°C, 30°C, 50°C, 70°C, 90°C). Energy balance was calculated for IFBB and WCD. Multiple regression models were developed to predict mass flows, concentrations of elements in the PC, concentration of organic compounds in the PF and energy conversion efficiency of the IFBB process from temperature of hydrothermal conditioning as well as NDF and DM concentration in the silage. Results showed a relative reduction of ash and all elements detrimental for combustion in the PC compared to the untreated biomass of 20-90%. Reduction was highest for K and Cl and lowest for N. HHV of PC and untreated biomass were in a comparable range (17.8-19.5 MJ kg-1 DM), but AST of PC was higher (1156-1254°C). Methane yields of PF were higher compared to those of WCD when the biomass was harvested late (end of May and later) and in a comparable range when the biomass was harvested early and ranged from 332 to 458 LN kg-1 VS. Regarding energy and GHG balances, IFBB, with a net energy yield of 11.9-14.1 MWh ha-1, a conversion efficiency of 0.43-0.51, and GHG mitigation of 3.6-4.4 t CO2eq ha-1, performed better than WCD, but worse than CH. WCD produces thermal and electric energy with low efficiency, CH produces only thermal energy with a low quality solid fuel with high efficiency, IFBB produces thermal and electric energy with a solid fuel of high quality with medium efficiency. Regression models were able to predict target parameters with high accuracy (R2=0.70-0.99). The influence of increasing temperature of hydrothermal conditioning was an increase of mass flows, a decrease of element concentrations in the PC and a differing effect on energy conversion efficiency. The influence of increasing NDF concentration of the silage was a differing effect on mass flows, a decrease of element concentrations in the PC and an increase of energy conversion efficiency. The influence of increasing DM concentration of the silage was a decrease of mass flows, an increase of element concentrations in the PC and an increase of energy conversion efficiency. Based on the models an optimised IFBB process would be obtained with a medium temperature of hydrothermal conditioning (50°C), high NDF concentrations in the silage and medium DM concentrations of the silage.
