Print parts of bibliography using BibTeX?

Question

For some days I am trying to solve the following problem for which I wasn't able to find a solution. Help is very much appreciated.

I am writing a long document and for some sections I would like to print a subset of items from the total bibliography that will be included at the very end before the appendix.

Is there a way do this? I was playing with refsection and imagining something like:

 \documentclass[ twoside,openright,titlepage,numbers=noenddot,
            headinclude,footinclude,
            cleardoublepage=empty,abstract=on,
            BCOR=5mm,paper=a4,fontsize=11pt
            ]{scrreprt}

\usepackage{biblatex}

\addbibresource[label=ownpubs]{ownpubs.bib}
\addbibresource[label=refs]{references.bib}

\begin{document}

%here I want to print a selection of the complete bibliography
%References are required to be consistent throughout the whole document
\chapter*{Related Publications}
\begin{refsection}[references.bib]
    \nocite{*} 
    \printbibliography[heading=none]
\end{refsection}

%here goes all the other stuff: chapters, sections, whatever

%print complete bibliography
\nocite{*} 
\printbibliography

\end{document}

ownpubs.bib:

@article{einstein1935can,
  title={Can quantum-mechanical description of physical reality be considered complete?},
  author={Einstein, Albert and Podolsky, Boris and Rosen, Nathan},
  journal={Physical review},
  volume={47},
  number={10},
  pages={777},
  year={1935},
  publisher={APS}
}
@article{einstein1905movement,
  title={On the movement of small particles suspended in stationary liquids required by the molecularkinetic theory of heat},
  author={Einstein, A},
  journal={Ann. d. Phys},
  volume={17},
  number={549-560},
  pages={1},
  year={1905}
}

references.bib:

@article{schrodinger1935gegenwartige,
  title={Die gegenw{\"a}rtige Situation in der Quantenmechanik},
  author={Schr{\"o}dinger, Erwin},
  journal={Naturwissenschaften},
  volume={23},
  number={50},
  pages={844--849},
  year={1935},
  publisher={Springer-Verlag}
}

With the above code I got the bibliographies printed, but the references (numbers) are not consistent.

Does anyone know a way to approach this problem? I am in no means restricted to splitting the files up. That was just the only solution I was able to come up with.

Thanks for your help and warm Greetings!

Please make your code compilable. You are using commands from the biblatex package, but don't load it. Furthermore, we don't have the necessary bib file to compile your code. — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz
Thanks for your feedback. I updated to a working example that compiles for me. — Perhalo

You could use a similar approach as in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/166018 and automatically add some keyword to all entries in references.bib. This will allow you to filter for those when using \printbibliography:

 \documentclass[ twoside,openright,titlepage,numbers=noenddot,
            headinclude,footinclude,
            cleardoublepage=empty,abstract=on,
            BCOR=5mm,paper=a4,fontsize=11pt
            ]{scrreprt}

\usepackage{biblatex}

\addbibresource[label=ownpubs]{ownpubs.bib}
\addbibresource[label=refs]{references.bib}

\DeclareSourcemap{
  \maps[datatype=bibtex]{
    \map[overwrite]{
      \perdatasource{references.bib}
      \step[fieldset=keywords, fieldvalue={,Perhalo}, append]
    }
  }
}

\begin{document}

%here I want to print a selection of the complete bibliography
%References are required to be consistent throughout the whole document
\chapter*{Related Publications}
\printbibliography[heading=none,keyword={Perhalo}]

%here goes all the other stuff: chapters, sections, whatever

%print complete bibliography
\nocite{*} 
\printbibliography

\end{document}
