Determination of the carbon footprint of different waste treatment techniques
Suchomel, Ondřej ; Linda, Jakub (referee) ; Köbölová, Klaudia (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis focuses on the issue of waste treatment, waste management and carbon footprint. The aim of this thesis is to understand the complexity of these industries and propose a plan for the city of Brno based on the research done. The first theoretical part explains the benefits of circular economy and waste analysis in Czech Republic. The ensuing part describes the process of carbon footprint calculation and presents its advantages and disadvantages of carbon footprint. The two following theoretical sections discuss the methods and possibilities of waste treatment by conventional and modern methods. Last part of this thesis is a computational design and offers a waste processing proposal for the city of Brno. This thesis predominantly addresses the advantages and disadvantages of composting and anaerobic digestion for biowaste processing. A practical use of these technologies has been proposed based on the calculations.

Analysis of the effect of friction modifiers composition on adhesion and noise in rail transport
Suchomel, Ondřej ; Galas, Radovan (referee) ; Klapka, Milan (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is experimental study of influence of composition of water based friction modifier on adhesion and sound pressure level. Experiments are carried out on twin-disk device. Introductory experiments are conducted to determine the conditions for further experiments. The experiments of the individual components follow, and the various friction modifier compositions are tested. From the results, it is obvious that a significant influence on the reduction of adhesion coefficient and sound pressure level has solid lubricant.

Factors controlling tuberization in potato
Suchomel, Ondřej ; Lipavská, Helena (advisor) ; Sikorová, Lenka (referee)
Tuberization of potato plants (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a morphogenetic process of stem transformation into the storage organ - tuber. Tubers emerge preferentially on the underground part of the stem - stolon. Tuberization induction depends on the signals from external environment (primarily photoperiod) and internal plant status. Development of tuber represents a complicated sequence of growth processes regulated primarily by phytohormons with the prominent function of gibberellins and cytokinins. Organs correlations and communication among different parts of plant body plays also very important role in the process. Apart from changes in morphology and cell division occurring in early stages of stolon transformation tuber formation and growth is also accompanied by important metabolic changes. This bachelor thesis is based on a literature review focused on control factors influencing potato tubers formation. The first part of my thesis is devoted to internal factors represented especially by phytohormons. The second part describes the effects of external factors, namely photoperiod, availability of nitrogen and temperature. Key words: Phytohormones, potato, Solanum tuberosum, stolon, induction of tuberization, saccharides
