Regenerative Energie
Acetic acid is one of the central intermediates in anaerobic digestion proceses, and its accumulation mostly indicates a dysfunction of this process. Although acetic acid gives an immediate signal of the physiological status of the anaerobic treatment process, routinely biogas production and pH are usually used as indicators of anaerobic processes because they are easier to measure than acetic acid.
A disadvantage of pH measurement is its dependance on the available buffer-capacity of the sludge. The present paper describes an enzymatic method to measure acetic acid for monitoring the process. The method is based on enzyme-linked test systems. The physiological status of an anaerobic lab scale reactor was monitored using acetic acid, pH and biogas measurements. The system was stressed step by step by “organic overload” with saccharide. Additionally the total cell counts and the cell counts of methanogens and sulfate reducing bateria were monitored. The detection of the bacteria was carried out by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH). This test is highly specific and detects bacteria in situ. The aim of the experiments was to seek correlation between acetic acid and process parameters like biogas, organic load and pH.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
