Kann die Einführung des Kombilohns die Lage am Arbeitsmarkt nachhaltig verbessern?

Nach dem »Mainzer Modell« erhalten Bezieher von niedrigen Erwerbseinkommen bei Neuaufnahme einer sozialversicherungspflichtigen Beschäftigung Zuschüsse zu ihren Sozialversicherungsbeiträgen. Nach Meinung von Dr. Hans-Peter Klös und Holger Schäfer, Institut der deutschen Wirtschaft Köln, wird dies kaum zu größeren Beschäftigungseffekten führen. Für Viktor Steiner, CESifo, sind sogar negative Beschäftigungseffekte des Mainzer Modells nicht auszuschließen. Dr. Ulrich Walwei, IAB, warnt »vor dem Einstieg in eine flächendeckende und massive Lohnsubventionierung bei einem ansonsten unveränderten Steuer- und Transfersystem«. Sabine Dann und Martin Rosemann, IAW, Tübingen, plädieren für die Kombination von Zuschüssen mit einem Einstiegsgeld

Concept and Implementation of a Student Design Project for the Development of Sustainable Products

Technology is a major driver for leveraging the potential of multidimensional sustainable development, regardless of the sector examined. Therefore, engineers have an important contribution in developing innovative technical solutions to ensure more sustainable alternatives to conventional processes or products. In order to support this comprehension from an early age on, it is the task of lecturers at universities by developing students access to sustainable engineering activities with new teaching programs. Regarding conventional product development, the question arises how sustainable products can be developed, which concepts for design and which methods for validation and quantification can be used. These and further questions are the basis of the project-based learning (PBL) approach introduced in this paper as part of a new module "Development of Sustainable Products" at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Leibniz University Hannover. In this paper, the need for new courses in the ecological sustainability context and the requirements for student project work are presented. The concept of the project and the overall objective, that the students are required to assess the ecological environmental impact of electric toothbrushes over the entire product life cycle based on a life cycle assessment (LCA) is introduced. After successfully participating in this project, students are able to conduct ecological sustainability analyses and understand the complexity within the development of sustainable products

Improving Energy and Resource Efficiency of Electric Steelmaking Through Simulation Tools and Process Data Analyses

The European Steel industry is ever more committed to improve the socio-economic and environmental sustainability of its processes by promoting any development, which can increase resource efficiency and lower the environmental footprint of the steel production. The European Steel Technology Platform gives the highest priority to the topic of Sustainable Steel Production within its Strategic Research Agenda since 2013. Several projects have been developed both at corporate level, as well as by associations of companies and research institutions in order to investigate new processes, retrofit actions and apply innovative combinations of existing technologies that can allow to improve the energy and resource efficiency and the management of by-products, waste and wastewater. However, it is still difficult for process managers and plant engineers to find accessible tools to both analyze the process data and to perform scenario analyses aimed at evaluating in a practical and understandable manner the effect of innovations in terms of new technologies or novel procedures and operative practices. Within the research RFCS project entitled ”Environmental Impact Evaluation and Effective Management of Resources in the EAF Steelmaking – EIRES” (where EAF stands for Electric Arc Furnace), an integrated tool has been developed, which allows to evaluate the environmental impact of current operating practices, modified operating conditions and major process variations and innovations, thanks to process simulation models for both production processes and auxiliary equipment. Also a dedicated Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is linked to the simulation models in order to provide a further evaluation from the specific LCA perspective. The paper is focused on the description of the developed integrated scenario analysis tool, which includes both process modelling and metrics tools, and to depict some examples of its application for process data analyses and scenario simulations
