The paper develops the ResourcePlan as (i) legal and (ii) a planning instrument to support the efficient use of resources in urban neighborhoods. The integrative, multi-methodological approach addresses the use of natural resources in the building and infrastructural sectors of (i) water (storm- and wastewater) management, (ii) construction and maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, (iii) urban energy system planning, and (iv) land-use planning. First, the development as legal instrument is carried out, providing (i) premises for integrating resource protection at all legal levels and (ii) options for implementing the ResourcePlan within German municipal structures. Second, the evaluation framework for resource efficiency of the urban neighborhoods is set up for usage as a planning instrument. The framework provides a two-stage process that runs through the phases of setting up and implementing the ResourcePlan. (Eco)system services are evaluated as well as life cycle assessment and economic aspects. As a legal instrument, the ResourcePlan integrates resource protection into municipal planning and decision-making processes. The multi-methodological evaluation framework helps to assess inter-disciplinary resource efficiency, supports the spatial identification of synergies and conflicting goals, and contributes to transparent, resource-optimized planning decisions.}, language = {de} } @article{MuellerHagemannAlbayrakAueletal.2020, author = {M{\"u}ller-Hagemann, M. and Albayrak, I and Auel, C and Boes, RM}, title = {Field Investigation on Hydroabrasion in High-Speed Sediment-Laden Flows at Sediment Bypass Tunnels}, series = {Water 12 (2)}, journal = {Water 12 (2)}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.25974/fhms-15126}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:836-opus-151268}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Wear due to sediment particles in fluid flows, also termed hydroabrasion' or simply 'abrasion', is an omnipresent issue at hydraulic structures as well as in bedrock rivers. However, interactions between flow field, particle motion, channel topography, material properties and abrasion have rarely been investigated on a prototype scale, leaving many open questions as to their quantitative interrelations. Therefore, we investigated hydroabrasion in a multi-year field study at two Swiss Sediment Bypass Tunnels (SBTs). Abrasion depths of various invert materials, hydraulics and sediment transport conditions were determined and used to compute the abrasion coefficients kv of different abrasion models for high-strength concrete and granite. The results reveal that these models are useful to estimate spatially averaged abrasion rates. The kv-value is about one order of magnitude higher for granite than for high-strength concrete, hence, using material-specific abrasion coefficients enhances the prediction accuracy. Three-dimensional flow structures, i.e., secondary currents occurring both, in the straight and curved sections of the tunnels cause incision channels, while also longitudinally undulating abrasion patterns were observed. Furthermore, hydroabrasion concentrated along joints and protruding edges. The maximum abrasion depths were roughly twice the mean abrasion depths, irrespective of hydraulics, sediment transport conditions and invert material.}, language = {en} } @article{TophoffKreyenschulteSchuettrumpfetal.2022, author = {Tophoff, Lukas and Kreyenschulte, Moritz and Sch{\"u}ttrumpf, Holger and Heimbecher, Frank}, title = {Verockerung wasserbaulicher Filteranlagen: Stand der Wissenschaft und notwendige Untersuchungen}, series = {Grundwasser - Zeitschrift der Fachsektion Hydrogeologie}, journal = {Grundwasser - Zeitschrift der Fachsektion Hydrogeologie}, doi = {10.25974/fhms-15293}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:836-opus-152930}, pages = {1 -- 14}, year = {2022}, abstract = {In den letzten Jahrzehnten kam es in Einzelf{\"a}llen zu schweren Sch{\"a}den an wasserbaulichen geotextilen Filteranlagen infolge der Verstopfung durch ausgeflockte ockerhaltige Produkte.

Centralized and decentralized sources for reclaimed water are found to potentially substitute 245 or 28\% of irrigation water, respectively, in agriculture production in Brandenburg. For such a reuse scenario, the fate of organic micropollutants is examined for diatrizoate (DZA) and carbamazepine (CBZ). Retention in local sandy soil and transfer into roots and leaves of arugula are analyzed in lysimeter studies and greenhouse pot experiments. Vertical transport was found for DZA and accumulation in or on arugula roots with a root concentration factor of 1,925+34\% but a low bioconcentration factor due to intrinsic molecule properties. CBZ was not found to be mobile in the sandy soil but accumulates in arugula roots and leaves by factors of 70+7\% and 155+12\%, respectively.

The separation of urine within the catchment area may be an alternative to mitigate the need for costly expansions of central WWTPs. While previous investigations assumed a spatially uniform implementation of urine separation across the catchment area, the present study focuses on an adapted stochastic wastewater generation model, which allows the simulation of various wastewater streams (e.g., urine) on a household level. This enables the non-uniform separation of urine across a catchment area. The model is part of a holistic modelling framework to determine the influence of targeted urine separation in catchments on the operation and emissions of central WWTPs, which will be briefly introduced. The wastewater generation model is validated through an extensive sampling and measurement series. Results based on observed and simulated wastewater quantity and quality for a catchment area of 366 residents for two dry weather days indicate the suitability of the model for wastewater generation and transport modelling. Based on this, four scenarios for urine separation were defined. The results indicate a potential influence of spatial distribution on the peaks of total nitrogen and total phosphorus.}, language = {en} }
