Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for separating acid gases from a gas mixture in which the gas mixture is contacted with an absorption medium which comprises water and at least one amine and has a phase-separation temperature in the range from 0 to 130° C. In addition, the invention is directed to a device which can be used for carrying out this method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the ozonolysis of unsaturated fatty acids and derivatives thereof, comprising a) ozonolysis of a fatty acid or of a derivative thereof in an organic phase comprising an organic solvent, and b) contacting the organic phase with an aqueous phase comprising catalase and preferably a buffer, where the fatty acid or the derivative thereof has a linear chain having at least eight carbon atoms, and the use of catalase for removing reactive oxygen species from a reaction mixture comprising ozonolysis products of an unsaturated fatty acid.
