Evaluation of low-cost microcontroller-based systems for simple sensor applications Open
Single-board computers, such as Raspberry Pi, have enabled a wide variety of monitoring applications. Microcontroller development boards offer a similar functionality but at a lower cost. Still, they are not widely used, because they are s…

Vertical green system for gray water treatment: Analysis of the VertiKKA-module in a field test Open
This work presents a modular Vertical Green System (VGS) for gray water treatment, developed at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. The concept was transformed into a field study with four modules built and tested with synthetic gray water. Ea…

Closing Water Cycles in the Built Environment through Nature-Based Solutions: The Contribution of Vertical Greening Systems and Green Roofs Open
Water in the city is typically exploited in a linear process, in which most of it is polluted, treated, and discharged; during this process, valuable nutrients are lost in the treatment process instead of being cycled back and used in urba…

Enhancing the circular economy with nature-based solutions in the built urban environment: green building materials, systems and sites Open
The objective of this review paper is to survey the state of the art on nature-based solutions (NBS) in the built environment, which can contribute to a circular economy (CE) and counter the negative impacts of urbanization through the pro…
