Abstract: In an embodiment a method includes a) providing an aqueous solution of a carbon dioxide absorption agent, wherein the carbon dioxide absorption agent comprises cations of the 1st main group of the periodic table, b) passing an air flow containing carbon dioxide through the aqueous solution of method step a), wherein at least a part of the carbon dioxide from the air flow is bound to the carbon dioxide absorption agent and the air flow is depleted in carbon dioxide and c) introducing the aqueous solution of method step b) or an aqueous solution including the carbon dioxide bound to the carbon dioxide absorption agent into a middle chamber of an at least three-chamber electrolysis cell, wherein the three-chamber electrolysis cell includes a membrane selective for monovalent cations, and electrolyzing the aqueous solution of method step b) or the aqueous solution comprising the carbon dioxide bound to the carbon dioxide absorption agent under release of at least a part of the carbon dioxide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lashing element (10) for vertically connecting a container (100) or a stack (110) of at least two containers (100) arranged one above the other to a stop (40) on a surface, in particular on board a ship, with at least one element (24) for producing a releasable movable connection to the stop (40), with at least one element (18) for producing a detachable connection with a corner fitting (120) of the container (100), with at least one element (12) for changing a length of the lashing element (10) for adapting the length of the lashing element (10) and for tensioning the lashing element between the container corner (120) and the stop (40). It is provided that there is a pressure-resistant and tension-resistant connection between the at least one element (24) for producing a releasable movable connection with the stop (40) and the at least one element (18) for producing a releasable connection with a corner fitting (120) of the container (100).

Abstract: In an embodiment a method includes loading an absorbent with a carbon dioxide in a first device, wherein a hydrogen carbonate-containing solution is formed, feeding the hydrogen carbonate-containing solution from the first device into an electrolysis unit, electrolyzing the hydrogen carbonate-containing solution in the electrolysis unit to release carbon dioxide, wherein a carbonate-rich solution is formed in the electrolysis unit, forming oxygen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide in the electrolysis unit, and recycling the carbonate-rich solution from the electrolysis unit to the first device.

Abstract: The invention relates to agents, compositions, uses and methods of a new variant of the infectious bronchitis-virus (IB-virus).

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for detecting the IB virus, variant IB 80, comprising the steps, a) Providing a sample which potentially contains the IB virus, variant IB 80, b) Providing a detection system which detects the S gene of the IB virus, variant IB80 with the nucleic acid of the sequence SEQ ID NO: 1 or the product of the S gene of the IB virus, strain IB 80 with the nucleic acid of the sequence SEQ ID No:1 and/or a protein with the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 2, and c) Detecting of the IB virus, strain IB80 with the detection system in step b) provided in case the provided sample in step a) contains IB virus, strain IB80.

Abstract: A cover for a merchandising display unit (1) disclosed. The cover of the rectangular top opening of the storage compartment includes displaceable lids (9) arranged in two rows along opposing longer sides (2,4) of the storage unit so that access is provided to the storage compartment from both sides of the storage unit. The cover has a stationary cover plate (6) along a mid section of the storage unit and a rail system (5) with a number of parallel transverse rails between the two longer sides, and the lids (9) mounted between separate tracks in adjacent rails and are displaceable in a direction perpendicular to the longer sides (2,4).
