Fundamentals of Beer and Hop Chemistry

Beer brewing is an intricate process encompassing mixing and further elaboration of four essential raw materials, including barley malt, brewing water, hops and yeast. Particularly hops determine to a great extent typical beer qualities such as bitter taste, hoppy flavour, and foam stability. Conversely, hop-derived bitter acids account for an offending lightstruck flavour, which is formed on e...

Chemical Kinetics – Fundamentals and Applications in Atmospheric and Combustion Chemistry

Shock tubes are quite universal tools to study high-temperature reactions in the gas phase (800 K < T < 3000 K). A gas mixture is rapidly (t < 1 μs) heated by a travelling shock wave, and species formed behind the shock front are time-resolved detected, where we use absorption spectroscopy [1] and mass spectrometry. [2] Kinetic data are inferred from the concentration-time profiles. A recent ex...
