A simulation tool for gasification based processes is presented for an equation-oriented, steady state modelling environment. The approach aims at an adequate description of phenomena linked to gasification. Background information is provided regarding the structure of the framework, thermodynamic data processing, and on the formulation of the model equations. The implemented substance streams are water/steam, ideal gases, inorganic solids, and organic mixtures. The models are based upon mass and energy balances and feature thermodynamic considerations. The addition of correlations for fluid dynamics or chemical kinetics is generally possible but not within the focus of this paper. The key-aspects of the typical unit-models, like pumps, turbines, heat exchangers, separators and chemical reactors are highlighted. The model of a dual-fluidized bed biomass gasifier is presented in detail. In a final case study, the suitability of the simulation tool is demonstrated for the description of the gasification-based biomass combined heat and power plant in Güssing/Austria.

The TDWG standard ABCD (Access to Biological Collections Data task group 2007) was aimed at harmonizing terminologies used for modelling biological collection information and is used as a comprehensive data format for transferring collection and observation data between software components. The project ABCD 3.0 (A community platform for the development and documentation of the ABCD standard for natural history collections) was financed by the German Research Council (DFG). It addressed the transformation of ABCD into a semantic web-compliant ontology by deconstructing the XML-schema into individually addressable RDF (Resource Description Framework) resources published via the TDWG Terms Wiki (https://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/ABCD_2). In a second step, informal properties and concept-relations described by the original ABCD-schema were transformed into a machine-readable ontology and revised (Güntsch et al. 2016). The project was successfully finished in January 2019. The ABCD 3 setup allows for the creation of standard-conforming application schemas. The XML variant of ABCD 3.0 was restructured, simplified and made more consistent in terms of element names and types as compared to version 2.x. The XML elements are connected to their semantic concepts using the W3C SAWSDL (Semantic Annotation for Web Services Description Language and XML Schema) standard. The creation of specialized applications schemas is encouraged, the first use case was the application schema for zoology. It will also be possible to generate application schemas that break the traditional unit-centric structure of ABCD. Further achievements of the project include creating a Wikibase instance as the editing platform, with related tools for maintenance queries, such as checking for inconsistencies in the ontology and automated export into RDF. This allows for fast iterations of new or updated versions, e.g. when additional mappings to other standards are done. The setup is agnostic to the data standard created, it can therefore also be used to create or model other standards. Mappings to other standards like Darwin Core (https://dwc.tdwg.org/) and Audubon Core (https://tdwg.github.io/ac/) are now machine readable as well. All XPaths (XML Paths) of ABCD 3.0 XML have been mapped to all variants of ABCD 2.06 and 2.1, which will ease transition to the new standard. The ABCD 3 Ontology will also be uploaded to the GFBio Terminology Server (Karam et al. 2016), where individual concepts can be easily searched or queried, allowing for better interactive modelling of ABCD concepts. ABCD documentation now adheres to TDWG’s Standards Documentation Standard (SDS, https://www.tdwg.org/standards/sds/) and is located at https://abcd.tdwg.org/. The new site is hosted on Github: https://github.com/tdwg/abcd/tree/gh-pages.

Gis Environment

FREEWAT is an ongoing GIS environment to serve as pre- and post-processor for running simulations of surface-/groundwater interaction, with the possibility to activate several features accounting for the different water stresses. This paper reports the capability related to address water resource management problems, by activating management tools available in the MODFLOW-OWHM code. The latter is integrated in FREEWAT, which appears as composite plugin of the well-know QGIS software (QGIS, 2016). Therefore, all the necessary pre- and post-process procedures can be run effectively within QGIS, also in conjunction with the several tools for GIS analysis already included in QGIS. It turns out a simple and intuitive user interface to manage the simulation of complex problem in which the mutual interaction among surface waters, groundwaters and anthropic water demand/supply terms can be handled. The development phase of such tools is already at an advanced stage, while next work will be focused on producing real-world applications to serve as tutorial for interest Users.
