Vacuum-glazing-window in fully-glazed appearance, opening direction to the outside.

This non-conventional window was concepted during the MOTIVE-project. It's attractive architectural appearance is based on a fully-glazed impression. However, the opening direction to the ouside needs to be furtherly worked on, regarding user acceptance, maintenance, and sun protection.

Setting the moss-plants

After constructing the panels, different moss plants were prepared for setting onto / into the the prepared panels.

Moss-Growth Studies (Project BeMoFa)

In the project we tried out a number of combination of different moss species, substrates, carrying materials, and humidification techniques.

Substrates

Different substrate materials were tested within the framework of the project

Paneel-Construction

In the framework of the project we tested different paneels toward their ability to act as carriers for moss-based greenery.

KLIMUR Analyzer: Screenshot of the map comparison

The figure shows the user interface of the KLIMUR-Analyzer on the right with different drop-down menus and buttons. Two maps are shown in comparison on the right with points of schools and on the left with points of playgrounds (OGD Vienna). This corresponds to only one feature of the KLIMUR-Analyzer. More features on analysis and participatory data collection and evaluation can be found in the project report.

Integrative evaluation of different extension stage for the Zukunftshof

The figure shows the network diagrams of the integrative evaluation for the Zukunftshof. From an integrative point of view, expansion stage 1 is the worst overall, i.e. it has the smallest area. The best variant would be expansion stage 3, although this also has the highest investment costs (therefore only 1 evaluation point). However, a general evaluation based on the sum of the KPIs seems difficult. Either the individual KPIs must be weighted or the conflicting goals must be examined more closely.

Distributed prosumer approach to resource management (energy, water, nutrients)

The figure shows schematically the transformation of a linear producer-consumer relationship to a feedback relationship between producers and consumers who become distributed prosumers.

The network of flexible bioenergy technologies in biomass-related energy conversions

Network of flexible bioenergy technologies and biomass conversion technologies. Four sections are distinguished from left to right along the value chain. Raw materials, intermediate products, energy sources and applications. The raw materials are divided into wet and dry biomass. The intermediate products are subdivided into product gas, biogas and pyrolysis oil. The energy sources are subdivided into liquid fuels, methane and LNG, pellets, biochar, wood chips and stabilized pyrolysis oil. The applications are divided into chemical substances, transportation and mobility, flexible electricity and (stored) heat. An additional arrow indicates that the value chain does not end with the application. CO2 is again a raw material that can be stored or used. CO2 is also produced between the step from intermediate products to energy carriers. Hydrogen from volatile renewables can also be added in this intermediate step. The diagram uses colored arrows to illustrate which supply chains are already established, which are in the demonstration phase, and which are still being developed. Wet biomass via biogas for transportation and electricity is an established chain. So is dry biomass, which is used as pellets or wood chips or through gasification for electricity and heat. Pyrolysis oil, but also liquid fuels from solid biomass for chemical substances or transportation are in the demonstration phase. The use of wet biomass for liquid fuels or for conversion into solid fuels are still underdeveloped supply chains.
