Assessment of evaporator integration into biogas plant
Peťovský, Patrik ; Touš, Michal (referee) ; Máša, Vítězslav (advisor)
The main waste output of the biogas plant is digested which is used as fertilizer. It can be further process. Digestate cannot be discharged freely into surface waters. This problem is associated with high transportation costs and higher costs of storage tanks in the new biogas plant. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to assess a suitable evaporation system for a particular biogas plant. The evaporation system leads to the concentration of digestate by evaporation water. The system uses heat produced by cogeneration unit. The main consequence of the integration is lower cost for the transport of liquid digestate. The output of the bachelor thesis is a technical and economic evaluation that assesses the payback period depending on the flow of concentrated digestate. The specific costs for adjustment of liquid digestate with regard to the payback period are in the range of 5–15 years. The values do not exceed 210 (Kčyear)/t_fug . The values considering selling heat are even negative. The minimum value guaranteed by the manufacturer is around 260 (Kčyear)/t_fug . The integration of the evaporation system into Žamberk's biogas plant is economically disadvantageous. The thesis brings new knowledge about the potential of multi-stage flash evaporation in biogas plants with short transport distances and high utilization of waste heat.

Energy supply for greenhouse production
Najbrtová, Zuzana ; Poláčik, Ján (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
The import of the vegetable has prevailed in the long run over the own production. In connection with this reality and increasing demand for the food with higher quality the production greenhouse is more often built. The providing heat, cold and electricity for the year-round operation is related to the construction and working of these objects. The theoretical part of this theses describes possible ways how to cover energy consumption for the model greenhouse in Kožichovice, Třebíč region. The heat losses and the year-round heat consumption were stated for the selected model and compared with the exact values from Kožichovice. The following method of energy supply was selected based on the calculated energy consumption - the separate cogeneration unit, cooperation of several cogeneration units, a biogas station, a heat pump and central heating system. These methods of energy supply were subjected to technical and economical comparison.

New technologies for an efficient operation of biogas plants
Uhlířová, Marcela ; Máša, Vítězslav (referee) ; Vondra, Marek (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on new technologies enhancing efficient operation of biogas plants. The introductory part describes operation of biogas plant, its products and issues. The main part of the thesis deals with description of three progressive technologies concerning biogas plants such as dry fermentation, hydrothermal pretreatment and biogas upgrading to biomethane. For each technology there is a description, advantages and disadvantages with regard to their practical applicability.

Energy yields per one hectare of land in the South Moravian Region
Plášek, Tomáš ; Bayer, Robert (referee) ; Jandová, Kristýna (advisor)
This bachelor thesis compares methods of producing elektricity in biogas plant, in thermal power plants by burning biomass, in solar power plants and compares it with production of energy of fuel cells and the energy from biofuels, like biodiesel and bioethanol. It compares the energy yields of different energy production methods and evaluates their advantages and disadvantages. It compares the energy content of these fuels by model vehicle range.

Estimation of biogas production in biogas plant
Heger, Jan ; Vondra, Marek (referee) ; Touš, Michal (advisor)
The focus of this thesis are calculation methods for biogas yield estimation in biogas plant. The aim is to get acquainted with calculation methods and to determine their accuracy by calculation. Refining biogas production estimates can be useful for case studies, feasibility studies, or technical-economic assessments. The available calculation methods are tested on a case study where a comparison with the operational data measured in the biogas plant in Valašské Meziříčí is accomplished using the extended Buswell method and tabulated values. Comparing this case study, a result was obtained where the calculation by the Buswell method reached very accurate values, whereas the calculation by tabulated values differed more from the measured values and the method achieved a less accurate result.

Monitoring and control of processes in biogas plants
Trubač, Daniel ; Vondra, Marek (referee) ; Máša, Vítězslav (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the issue of management of biogas plants. It deals with the creation of biogas and the functioning of the biogas plant. A separate part is devoted to the description of factors influencing the efficiency and stability of the fermentation process and the methods of their measurement. The final part introduces the latest technologies in the field of monitoring and control of biogas plants. The use of decision support systems in biogas plants seems to be a very promising direction for further development.

Energy use of biomass
Ošťádal, Michal ; Elbl, Patrik (referee) ; Baláš, Marek (advisor)
The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to search for technologies for biomass conversion with subsequent energy utilization. At the beginning of the work is analyzed the nature of biomass as an energy source. The next part deals with individual technologies. The following section deals with combustion and biogas chains. The penultimate chapter deals with chosen energy sources. The last chapter is statistical processing of emissions, mining, electricity and heat production from renewable sources and biomass.

Procesy a fungování bioplynové stanice
ŘEZNÍK, Luboš
It is necessary to look for options of more rational use of energy and find a way how to make the most of renewable energy. As we can see, there has been a huge increase in biogas stations in Czech Republic since 2010. The most used in our country are agricultural biogas stations. The feedstock into a biogas station is mainly manure, liquid manure, crop residues, corn silage, biomass from grasslands, energy crops etc. This bachelor thesis summarizes the history and the basic characteristics of biomass where we are interested in the use of biomass for energy purposes. The thesis also includes the explanation of the history of production and use of biogas in the Czech Republic. In the practical part I analyzed and explained the function of the biogas station Klučenice in the local agricultural establishment. In the thesis is explained how the biogas station was projected. Then I focused in detail on technical operations units, where I made comprehensive evaluations. I split the created operating units into 7 groups, subsequently described in detail and added tables and graphs. In the second phase of practical part I typified and described the annual consumption of vegetal and animal ingredients. Then I made a list of the total electricity production in the biogas station Klučenice and assessed its economic strength.

Fermentation of biogas plants
Mrůzková, Karolína ; Vičíková, Magda (referee) ; Svěrák, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the study of biogas plant technologies, mainly those based on the wet anaerobic digestion. In the experimental part of the thesis, biogas yield of the substrates (corn silage, corn hominy, pig slurry, poultry droppings, sugar beet pulp) is measured in a fermentation test. Based on the real biogas yields of a particular biogas plant, where the determined substrates are used, the relative error of the fermentation test was calculated.
