Fourth-generation biofuels for jet engines
Marko, Adam ; Mišík, Ondrej (referee) ; Malý, Milan (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the decarbonisation of air transport and the possible use of biofuels to power jet engines. As the use of the current fuel, kerosene, is time limited due to finite oil supplies, research and testing of its environmentally friendly successors is necessary. Equally important is the parallel development of compatible aviation and airport infrastructure, both in the form of airframes, engines and fuel systems and ground support equipment. In the event of a transition to a new type of aviation fuel, it is essential that it is technically advanced, affordable, environmentally sound, safe and has a wide supply chain. Currently, the scientific community is most focused on the use of sustainable aviation fuels SAF, hydrogen, ammonia, LNG and e-fuels. To qualify as a biofuel, the production process must be carbon neutral and the primary source of production must be renewable energy.

CARBON Visitor Center
Vajs, Jakub ; Šindlar, Jiljí (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The bachelor thesis follows on from the revitalization project of the former black coal mine Frenštát – CÉRKA, by the architectural studio Kamil Mrva architects s.r.o. It deals with the design of the visitor center, on a plot located in the center of this area. The result of the proposal is a solitary building located in the space between the four original buildings of the mining infrastructure. Its main task is educational spreading of awareness about the history of the area and its immediate surroundings. The solution offers possibilities for supplementing and improving the cultural life of the inhabitants of the surrounding areas.

CARBON Visitor Center
Kukučková, Nina ; Šindlar, Jiljí (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The designed building should fulfill the function of the visitor‘s first contact with the former black coal mining complex near Frenštát pod Radhoštěm. For this reason, its character should be welcoming, friendly, amiable, it should welcome visitors to the area and at the same time set the desire in them to get to know the area, the region and the Beskydy Mountains more deeply. The visitor center should represent just a small taste of what the area has to offer. The design works with the idea of the atmosphere in a forest, in a mountain environment, in nature therefore it uses natural materials only. The concept uses selected fragments of the forest such as light, space and structure, which are further transformed and reflected in the design.
