40/5000 Fine particles produced by the stove
Škvařil, Ondřej ; Baláš, Marek (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
This master thesis deals with problematics of fine particles produced during combustion in fireplace stoves. The theoretical part is focused on the analysis of the atmosphere, health consequences, solid pollutants, the formation of particles (origin), particle separation and how they are regulated by laws. Theoretical section of the thesis addresses analysis of biomass and its combustion. In the applied section are listed given methods of the particles measuring according to regulations, common errors during measurement and methods of identification of measured fine particles. Then follow specific measurements of the formed very fine particles produced by the SMPS method. Subsequently, the results of the measurement are evaluated and summarized in the conclusion.

This master thesis provides an overview of fine particles contained in the air and possibilities for their analysis, measurement and capture. In the beginning, the fine particle's size and origin is described. Then, the influence of fine particles on human health is stated. Next, methods of air analysis and fine particle's measurement are presented. Legislation for emissions and immissions in the Czech Republic is summarized. Finally the selected types of impactors are introduced. The practical part consists of three chapters. First chapter contains the fundamental calculation procedure and its subsequent refinement. In the following part the comparison of the calculation procedure with the parameters of the commercial impactor is provided. Lastly, the design of the impactor is created for the specified parameters using the developed calculation procedure.
Effect of ESP on distribution and chemical composition of particles from biomass combustion
Preisler, Lukáš ; Köbölová, Klaudie (referee) ; Adamec, Vladimír (advisor)
Biomass combustion causes a significant number of particles that, released into the atmosphere, negatively affect human health. Knowledge of the size and composition of the particles is essential for possible flue gas separation by electrostatic precipitation technology. This technology is developed and used in large power plants, but the electrostatic precipitation in domestic boilers is rare. This work describes the methods of fine particle formation and their size distribution and composition. Measurement methods of chemical composition and the size distribution are provided. According to a review, the effect of electrostatic precipitator on size distribution and chemical composition is discussed. In the experimental part, fine particles were sampled from the flue gas of a domestic wood pellet boiler containing an experimental electrostatic precipitator. Due to operational reasons, the electrostatic precipitator did not run during sampling. Flue gas condensed on the inner surface of the flue. The particles were sampled on filters at the beginning and the end of the flue. The filter was analyzed on an electron microscope.
Effect of operating parameters of the boiler on presence of fine particles in flue gas
Košťál, Jan ; Poláčik, Ján (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis is devoted to the issues of the formation of fine particles in dependents on the combustion parameters. The first part of thesis is review, which summarized the information about combustion process and about formation of the gaseous products and fine particles inside them which created during combustion process. The main content of thesis is realization of measurements of fine particles from combustion, in several types of the tested combustion devices. Next part is a description of used measurement devices, which used for measurement. Last chapters are focused on evaluation of results from the measurements, comparison of the measurements between themselves and the finding the existence of the dependence of the formation of fine particles on operational parameters of boiler. And all results are evaluated in the conclusion.

Rigby, Jakub ; Sitek, Tomáš (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor thesis follows up fine particle separation issue with use of impaction method. The introduction is focused on main air pollutants. Closely the solid pollutants and their properties such as formation principle, legislation and human health impact are showed. Following parts describes methods of fine particle capture and closer is focused on impaction method. In the experimental part of this thesis main dimension calculation, construction and manufacturing process of virtual impactor is presented. Several construction and material types of virtual impactor has been fabricated. Finally, a separation efficiency measurement was made. This measurement confirms properties of PM2,5 and PM10 virtual impactor.
Fine particles and air-cleaning
Bírošíková, Martina ; Sitek, Tomáš (referee) ; Poláčik, Ján (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with issues with fine and ultrafine particles, also called particulate matter, which is strongly associated with enviromental problems and negative effect on human health, especially cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this work is to describe the formation and characteristics of fine particles produced by biomass combustion. The experimental part firstly explains funcional principle of used devices and then compares measured concentrations of ultra fine particles produced by combustion of spruce and beech wood. In the end, several posibilites how to eliminate the air pollutants are presented.
Emissions from the burning of garden waste
Kuznetsova, Oksana ; Poláčik, Ján (referee) ; Baláš, Marek (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of production of gaseous and solid pollutants in the incineration of garden waste. The aim was to carry out and evaluate the experiment. During the evaluation, it was found that the incineration of garden waste produces many times more emissions, than the incineration of wood in the boiler. The reason for the high emission concentrations was the fuel composition and the combustion process. Furthermore, fine particles in the range 17.5–532.8 nm were investigated. In the theoretical part, a literary search was created, which was based on Czech and foreign professional literature.
Electrostatic precipitator for household wood firing boiler
Preisler, Lukáš ; Skála, Zdeněk (referee) ; Brázdil, Marian (advisor)
This diploma thesis aims on the development of an experimental electrostatic precipitator for household wood firing boiler. First, a literature review was conducted, aiming on the description of the precipitator using physical relations and, on its basis, a numerical model was created. By applying the numerical model, the precipitator configuration was designed as well as the engineering design of the whole system. The chosen configuration was validated by measurement using the corona discharge starting at voltage of 6,5 kV. By applying modifications, the electrostatic precipitator was built and tested during a running boiler. Due to flue gas condensation and load, corona discharge did not initiate, and the parameters were not validated. Modifications in the construction design were suggested leading to launch the electrostatic precipitator. The main requirement is a surface finishing of wire hinging components.
