I spent like 20 minutes trying to update beat saber before realising it wasn't working because I had a modded APK installed </3 normally I wouldve just left it but the new dlc packs are really good and I just spend like 15 bucks on songs that I'd like to be able to actually play at some point
Still sucks tho :/ usually i don't check out the newest dlc pack because I *know* bmbf won't be updated to that version for a while, and I'd be choosing between custom songs + whatever the new dlc pack is (also the bmbf installation process takes. So long)
#i caved :(#now im stuck waiting for beat saber to reinstall#and i still have to reinstall all my dlc songs which takes way too long#AND i wont have custom songs for god knows how long#agh#me.txt

The PFClean project is finding solutions to “forever chemicals” - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/the-pfclean-project-is-finding-solutions-to-forever-chemicals-technology-org/
The PFClean project is finding solutions to “forever chemicals” - Technology Org
PFAS (per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a global environmental and health issue. There is extensive soil contamination near Hügelsheim in the district of Rastatt. In this area, compost mixed with paper sludge containing PFAS was spread on agricultural land in the past. Within the framework of the BMBF PFClean project, researchers from the University of Stuttgart are testing how activated carbon in the soil could bind harmful substances and thus protect the groundwater.
Researchers and project partners are introducing activated carbon into the soil of a Hügelsheim field contaminated with PFAS. The aim is for the harmful chemicals to adhere to the activated carbon, so that the further transport of these substances into the groundwater will be stopped. Image credit: Universität Stuttgart
Stopping the transport of harmful substances into the groundwater
In the project “PFClean – An Innovative Modular System for the Sustainable Reduction of PFAS Contaminants from Soil and Groundwater”, a team from the University of Stuttgart headed by Haslauer is currently testing a method in a field trial of reducing the contamination of groundwater by the pollutants. In January, the researchers introduced activated carbon into the soil of a contaminated field in Hügelsheim with the support of project partners. The PFAS substances are intended to adhere to the homogeneously incorporated activated carbon. The aim is a higher absorption capacity in the soil, which will stop the further transport of harmful substances into the groundwater.
The PFClean team investigates whether this method will be successful with the aid of a detailed monitoring system. This includes regularly taking groundwater samples from 13 monitoring sites and pore water analyses. “In this way, we hope to find a viable way of sustainably managing the pollutant load in the groundwater,” says Haslauer.
After trials in the laboratory, PFClean is testing approaches on site
Successful laboratory experiments preceded the pilot project on site in Hügelsheim. The project, which started in March 2023, investigates not only the increase in the absorption capacity of soils, but also further approaches for PFAS remediation technologies such as the removal of PFAS using so-called funnel-and-gate systems. In this method, impermeable walls built into the subsoil control the direction of groundwater flow in order to retain the PFAS at a single point. Other tests are concerned with the degradation of harmful substances by microorganisms and at different temperatures.
“To date, there are hardly any in-situ remediation technologies, meaning the removal on site, at the source of the contamination,” says Haslauer. This is due to the wide range of possible properties of PFAS: Some are mobile and can be easily transported in the subsoil and carried into the groundwater. Others bind strongly to soil materials. All of them are very stable due to carbon-fluorine bonds. For this reason, they are also called “forever chemicals”. Until now, PFAS have been removed from contaminated water using various treatment techniques, for example in waterworks, but not at the source of the contamination, i.e. directly from soil and groundwater.
The goals of PFClean are to test on site and, if necessary, refine the approaches developed in the laboratory and in large-scale trials for the remediation and removal of PFAS from soil and groundwater, and to achieve a rapid and effective transfer from science to real-life application. In addition to the location in Hügelsheim, trials in Reilingen, south of Heidelberg, are planned. There, at individual points, PFAS found their way into the ground from fire-extinguishing foams.
Background: PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances)
The substance group of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances comprises about 5000 individual substances. PFAS are dirt-, water-, and grease-repellent and can be found in countless products: in outdoor jackets, frying pans, paper and cardboard, in shampoo, varnishes, and fire-extinguishing foam. Some of the chemicals are harmful to health. High concentrations in the blood may damage organs or cause cancer. For decades, PFAS have been finding their way into the environment, for example, in wastewater and exhaust gas. They accumulate in soils and groundwater and decompose only very slowly.

Azubis und Schüler tauschen sich aus
Berufsorientierung auf Augenhöhe
Gemeinsam mit der Realschule Rees veranstaltete die Niederrheinische IHK eine etwas andere Berufsmesse: Anstelle von Unternehmern und Personalchefs sprachen rund 20 IHK-Ausbildungsbotschafter mit den Schülern über ihre beruflichen Möglichkeiten.
Gemeinsam mit der Realschule Rees veranstaltete die Niederrheinische IHK eine Berufsmesse mit IHK-Ausbildungsbotschaftern.
Wie ein Arbeitstag in der Ausbildung abläuft und welche Fächer es in der Berufsschule gibt, das können Azubis am besten erzählen. Für junge Menschen ist neben dem Gehalt und der Arbeitszeit das Miteinander im Betrieb besonders wichtig. Auszubildende verschiedener Betriebe am Niederrhein besuchen deshalb die Schulen in der Region, berichten von ihren Erfahrungen und beantworten Fragen. Zur Vorbereitung auf ihren Einsatz als Ausbildungsbotschafter werden sie von der Niederrheinischen IHK geschult.
Bei der Berufsmesse an der Realschule Rees im Kreis Kleve konnten sich die Schüler nun bei gleich mehreren Ausbildungsbotschaftern über ihre Berufe informieren. Zudem erhielten sie Tipps für ihre Bewerbung. Rüdiger Gockel, Berufswahlkoordinator der Realschule Rees, freut sich über diese Chance: „Da die Auszubildenden selbst noch jung sind, sprechen sie mit den Schülern locker und auf einer Ebene.“
Auszubildende verschiedener Betriebe am Niederrhein besuchten die Realschule Rees, um den Schülern von ihrer Ausbildung zu erzählen. Zur Vorbereitung auf ihren Einsatz als Ausbildungsbotschafter werden sie von der Niederrheinischen IHK geschult.
Das Projekt „IHK-Ausbildungsbotschafter“ unterstützt Schulen bei der Berufsorientierung. Bereits über 180 Auszubildende haben mitgemacht. „Wir freuen uns, dass über 50 Unternehmen aus Duisburg sowie den Kreisen Wesel und Kleve ihre Azubis für die Einsätze in den Schulen freistellen. So können wir über 60 Berufe abbilden – persönlich und auf Augenhöhe,“ so Janine Peters, Teamleitung für die Bereiche Ausbildungsmarkt und Fachkräfte bei der Niederrheinischen IHK.
Das Projekt wird durch Mittel des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) gefördert und vor Ort von Handwerks- und Industrie- und Handelskammern koordiniert. Die Gesamtkoordination des landesweiten Projekts liegt bei der Landes-Gewerbeförderungsstelle des nordrhein-westfälischen Handwerks (LGH).
Interessierte Unternehmen und Schulen können sich bei IHK-Projektkoordinatorin Meike Komatowsky melden, 0203 2821-495, [email protected].

Opening of the first recycled fertilizer research facility
from Verdauung to Verzehr: feces, collection, transport, recycling, placing on the market, fertilization and cultivation, processing and trading, digestion
Germany's first research facility for the production of recycled fertilizers from the contents of dry toilets has been opened. The research facility as part of the zirkulierBAR project[1] on the premises of the Barnim district[2] works includes a urine processing system and a humus rack, as the Barnim district works announced on Monday 16-10.
ZirkulierBAR is an inter- and transdisciplinary research project in Eberswalde[3] in the Barnim district. Municipalities and future-oriented companies, together with universities and research institutions, are creating a real laboratory for a sustainable regional circular economy. The project is supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of the REGION.innovativ funding program[4].
In the future, two types of recycled fertilizers will be produced in the ZirkulierBAR real laboratory: the separately collected urine is used in the urine processing plant to create a liquid nitrogen fertilizer that contains other important plant nutrients in high concentrations. Its effect is comparable to synthetic mineral fertilizers. The faeces are processed in the newly built humus shelf and, due to their high content of phosphorus and organic matter, are the basic building block for recycled compost. This is particularly suitable for building humus in sandy or depleted soils and is therefore referred to as “humus fertilizer”. The quality of faecal compost has already been tested in planting trials and is comparable to other high-quality composts.
