Monitoring drug removal efficiency from water by selected adsorbents
Moravčíková, Světlana ; Talašová, Lucie (referee) ; Biela, Renata (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the efficiency of removal of pharmaceuticals from drinking water by selected adsorption materials. The first part describes sources of pharmaceuticals in drinking water and possible ways of contaminating water by pharmaceuticals. Subsequently, the pharmaceuticals most commonly found in the environment - nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, psychiatric drugs and sex hormones - are described in more detail. Next, the thesis describes the processes used for removal of pharmaceuticals. These are activated carbon adsorption, membrane processes and advanced oxidation processes. The last chapter of the theoretical part of the thesis deals with water treatment plants, where the technologies for removing drugs are already in operation. In the practical part of this thesis an experiment was performed and evaluated, for a purpose of comparing the efficiency of selected sorption materials in the removal of diclofenac from water. Filtrasorb F100, Bayoxide E33 and GEH were used.

Water filtration and filter materials
Moravčíková, Světlana ; Talašová, Lucie (referee) ; Biela, Renata (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with water filtration. Primarily it describes slow sand filtration and rapid sand filtration. For these types of filtration, the filtration mechanisms, filtration cycles, filtration regeneration and filter layout are described in more detail. In case of the rapid filters, the most commonly used types of drainage systems are summarized. Further there is a brief introduction of diatomite filters and membrane processes used in water industry. The next chapter contains most commonly used filter materials along with their basic properties. Practical part of the thesis focuses on assessment of efficiency of selected filter materials in the removal of pollution.

Comparison of Selected Adsorbents for Removing Metals from Water
Moravčíková, Světlana ; Biela, Renata
Various metals and their compounds are among the number of substances that currently pollute drinking water sources. A laboratory experiment was performed to compare selected sorption materials for removing metals from water. Filter columns filled with selected sorption materials GEH and Bayoxide E33 were used for experimental comparison. The metals arsenic, nickel and lead were removed from the water by sorption. Based on several criteria, Bayoxide E33 was evaluated as a more suitable material.
