Divide and conquer

This puzzle has been my second feature on Cracking the Cryptic (click
here to see Mark solving it). It is definitely a challenging, mathematical puzzle, but hopefully still rewarding. So stay strong during the early stage of the puzzle and get rewarded by the power of the non-consecutive constraint. The rules are as follows:
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Orthogonally adjacent cells are not allowed to contain consecutive digits. The only digits that can be placed on a yellow divisor line have to be divisors of the maximum digit on the line. For example, if the maximum digit on a yellow divisor line is 8, one is only allowed to place the digits 1,2,4 and 8 on this line. Digits on a yellow divisor line may repeat if allowed by other rules.

Lösungscode: Digits in column 8, read from to top to bottom.
