Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for determining an occupancy situation of containers in an installation, the method comprising: using at least one camera for capturing the occupancy situation of the containers in the installation and obtaining a captured occupancy situation, analyzing the captured occupancy situation and obtaining an analyzed occupancy situation, and controlling the installation based on the analyzed occupancy situation. Furthermore, the disclosure comprises a device comprising at least one camera and a control device with instructions that are stored thereon and that, when executed by a processor, cause the control device to execute the method.

Abstract: An integrated thermal management system for a fuel cell electric vehicle is disclosed. The integrated thermal management system includes a fuel cell system, a brake resistor, a fuel cell coolant loop that includes a fuel cell radiator thermally and fluidly coupled to the fuel cell system, a brake resistor coolant loop that includes a brake resistor radiator thermally and fluidly coupled to the brake resistor, and a heat exchanger loop that includes a coolant-coolant heat exchanger thermally and fluidly coupled to the fuel cell coolant loop and the brake resistor coolant loop. In a fuel cell cooling operating mode, heat is transferred from the fuel cell system to an ambient environment through the fuel cell radiator and the brake resistor radiator.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for separating glue particles from a glue aerosol are described. Accordingly, the device comprises a cyclone separator and a collection container arranged underneath for collecting glue particles running down from the cyclone separator. Due to the fact that the device further comprises a discharge line which is connected in a gas-tight manner to the cyclone separator and which projects downwards into the collection container in order to hydrostatically seal the cyclone separator at the discharge end by means of a solvent held in the collection container, separated particles can be continuously dissolved in the solvent and discharged by replacing the solvent without interruption of the cyclonic flow prevailing in the cyclone separator.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a modular communal heating and power station, in particular for single-family dwellings and multiple-family dwellings. The communal heating and power station is characterized by a module design according to the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for supplying at least one load with electrical power. The at least one load is in this case supplied with power from an electrical DC voltage source and/or an electrical AC voltage source.
