The Laboratory for Waste Management, Waste Water Management and Environmental Chemistry (LASU) at the Münster University of Applied Sciences has been working successfully in the field of research and development – nationally as well as internationally - since 1985. In total, it has so far attracted approximately EUR 9.5 million in external funds. Therefore, the LASU makes an important contribution to the inflow of external funds at the Münster University of Applied Sciences, which has been one of the top institutions for external fund-based research among German technical colleges for several years now.
Environmental technologies for water and waste management, the utilization of the material and energy content of biomass as well as WuRM³ (‘Water in URban Centres - Measurement/Modelling/Managing) are three fields of research and development in which the LASU is actively involved. The contribution of the LASU to the "Life Cycle Assessment of New Plastics" competence platform, its participation in the Water Network and the joint management of the office of "Gütegemeinschaft Sekundärbrennstoffe und Recyclingholz e.V." round off the profile.
At present, the staff of LASU includes five scientific employees who cover the disciplines of civil engineering and biology, one engineer and one academically trained librarian. They are supported by university assistants and students who are working on their final thesis (diploma, bachelor, master thesis).
In recent years, the R & D activities of the LASU concentrated mainly on the utilization of the material and energy content of waste. To strengthen the focus on the exploitation of the energy content, “Gütegemeinschaft Sekundärbrennstoffe und Recyclingholz e.V. (BGS)” was established in 1999 upon an initiative of the LASU. As a central unit, the BGS defines the quality standards for quality-assured solid recovered fuels (SRF). With its laboratory equipment and pilot facilities, e.g. NIR device, trommel screen, shaking screen, the LASU develops workable solution concepts for various problems.
LASU’s range of services includes:The results are communicated through college classes, the e-learning assisted master course for international infrastructure management ( www.fh-muenster.de/iim) as well as panel work, lectures and publications. Last but not least, the Waste Management Days ( www.abfallwirtschaftstage.de) whose principal organizer is the LASU also help to spread knowledge in this field.
