Batch control for model of distillation column
Vobejda, Lukáš ; Kacz, Peter (referee) ; Štohl, Radek (advisor)
This thesis deals with the batch controlling of a distillation column model. The thesis is divided into several parts. The first part, which is more theoretical, summarizes the description of the batch controlling, the distillation process and the equipment used, including the model of the distillation column itself. The second part is focused on the practical implementation. The beginning of this part displays different types of the models produced by the Standard 88. This section is followed by a description of a device database in the environment of FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor, creation of a logical phase codes using functions of the PhaseManager in the environment of RSLogix5000 and a creation of a recipe in the environment of FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor. The last part of this thesis deals with the visualization created in the FactoryTalk View Studio SE and final testing of the entire process.

Seawater desalination
Kamenický, Robin ; Hájek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Maar, Tomáš (advisor)
Každodenní nedostatek pitné vody vede ke snahám tento problém řešit. Jedna z možnosti je odsolování ať už destilační, za pomoci membrán a osmózy, či dalších nekonvenčních způsobů jako je zmražení vody. Tato práce se zabývá možnostmi odsolování. Popisuje způsoby destilační, reverzní osmózu, solární odsolování a nezapomíná ani na separaci pitné vody pomoci zmražení. Spolu se získáváním pitné vody ze slané nastává také otázka energetických zdrojů. Využití fosilních paliv, obnovitelných zdrojů energie a jaderné energie, je tedy další nepostradatelné téma popisované v této práci. V neposlední řadě se zde také můžete dočíst o možném dopadu odsolování na životní prostředí, ať už z hlediska globálního v podobě možné produkce skleníkových plynů nebo dopadů lokálních. V závěrečné kapitole je podrobná ekonomická analýza odsolovacího zařízení pomoci počítačového programu DEEP. Popisované zařízení je na bázi multi effect distillation a reverzní osmózy, pro které se získává energie z jaderné elektrárny.

Research of Equipment for Sea Water Treatment and Other Applications
Hájek, Zdeněk ; Klemeš,, Jiří (referee) ; Odstrčil, Miloslav (referee) ; Jegla, Zdeněk (advisor)
As water resources are rapidly being exhausted, more and more interest is focused on the desalination of sea water and brackish water. Increasing amounts of fresh water will be required in the future due to the rise in population rates, increasing living standards and the expansion of industrial and agricultural activities. The thesis is concentrated on current issues of treatment of sea water, mainly the desalination based on the distillation principle, in order to develop a unit for seawater treatment. The aim is to develop a compact modular unit for seawater desalinate on based on the implementation and evaluation of experimental tests on the experimental unit. The solution includes an overview of systems for treatment of seawater, a discussion of structural and material aspects of the units, design and manufacture of the experimental unit and confrontation the calculated values with the results of experimental measurements.

Control system for laboratory distillation column model
Chlad, Petr ; Šír, Michal (referee) ; Štohl, Radek (advisor)
The aim of this master’s thesis was to create a control system for laboratory distillation column model. There are two different models considered. Real and software model. For the real model suitable components were selected and the model was built. Software model allows safe testing of control algorithm functionality without the need of real model. The simple visualization that works with both models was developed. Both distillation column models - real and software - were tested as a last phase of work.

Blackbox with PLC and demonstration task
Frýdl, Lukáš ; Kacz, Peter (referee) ; Štohl, Radek (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor’s thesis was to create a simulation including visualization of a distillation column, with the primary aim to the thermal processes of simple distillation and of distillation with a water stream. Visualization is displayed on the HMI panel, which is placed on the front doors of the switchboard. The switchboard is designed as a blackbox, which means that the knowledge of the inside functionality is unnecessary for the user to work with the device. Both software and hardware test were performed. The functionality of the software was tested using a mixture of water and acetone. On the hardware side tests of inputs and outputs were done.

Influence of the temperature on the preparing of asphalt mixtures with higher amount of RAP
Škrobáček, Petr ; Koudelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the preparation of the reclaimed asphalt pavement for production of asphalt mixtures. In the thesis there is investigated the effect of the temperature of preparation the reclaimed asphalt pavement on the characteristic of the bitumen content. In the theoretical part there is described bitumen as such and reclaimed asphalt pavement. In the practical part there is described the preparation of the material for laboratory tests. The next step is the extraction and distillation of bitumen. These bitumens are tested according to depredescribed tests: ‘Determination of needle penetration (ČSN EN 1426)’, ‘The softening point (ČSN EN 1427)’ and ‘Dynamic shear rheometer’. In the last section of this bachelor thesis there is a comparison of the individual properties of the rendered bitumen of the asphalt mixtures of reclaimed asphalt pavement, with the aim of evaluating temperatures of preheating and degradation of the bitumen on the final characteristic of the asphalt mixtures witch higher quantity reclaimed asphalt pavement. The measured values of the temperature for preparation of reclaimed asphalt pavement shows that the temperature of the asphalt mixture before production has a significant effect on the characteristics of the bitumen, which is included in the reclaimed asphalt pavement. There is evident the difference between specimen of the asphalt mixture of reclaimed asphalt pavement and the reclaimed asphalt pavement. It is visible only from the bottom layer too.

Usability of stillage from ethanol production
Audy, Dan ; Večeř, Marek (referee) ; Leštinský, Pavel (advisor)
This work solves the use of stillage from ethanol production. Also solves processing into material DDGS and then solves the material and energy balance. This material and energy balance was calculated for 7070 kg of stillage per hour. The final energy requirements of the process were based on the amount of stillage produced to obtain 1 m3 of ethanol. The results of this work offer an insight to the problems of processing stillage. Thanks to conversion for 1 m3 of produced ethanol, results is also offerring the possibility of fast conversion of an approximate energy needed for devices of other capacities.

Energy consumption of equipressure and various pressures technical alcohol distillation
Audy, Dan ; Leštinský, Pavel (referee) ; Smejkal, Quido (advisor)
This hork compares the heat consumption of two units for the production of technical alcohol. The aim is to compare ordinary arrangement of rectifying distillery with an alternative arrangement, based on a modified pressure device profile. The first unit is based on the classic arrangement brewhouse, working at atmospheric pressure. The alternative unit works with different pressures in columns. In this case, the pressures are chosen so that it was possible to use heat from the head of overpressure rectification column for reboiler of vacuum mash column. The principle of pressure differences between the two columns and appropriate choice for this difference also allows the beneficial use of surplus heat. It also reduces the risk of clinkering incrusts in reboiler mash column because this works at lower temperatures than the mash column atmospheric embodiment. The comparisons of the media in this work are: The amount of steam used for reboilers of both columns, the amount of cooling water used for condensation and cooling of process streams. Furthermore, an approximate estimate of electricity consumption for pumps and other machinery. For both units is considered the same amount of mash and the same amount of product of comparable quality. The product was a technical alcohol 96.4% aa at a temperature of 25 ° C.
