This bachelor thesis deals with emissions of sulphur oxides. First are described their properties, influence on human health and their impact on the environment. Next thesis deals with present situation of emissions and emission limits.

The Death Pit and the Glowing Swamp: A Permeation
Smutný, Jan ; Marek, Petr (referee) ; Cenek, Filip (advisor)
The work is connecting well-known symbols of alchemy and various esoteric traditions and giving them visual and narrative form. There is deconstruction and glorification of this type of philosophy in the same time. The characters of the story are symbolizing the german and slavic archetypes. Their voyage from the pit of death to the glowing swamp and vice versa is representing the ageless story of life and death, creation and destruction, body and soul, light and darkness. All the symbols are used in the ironic and serious way in the same time.

Batteries for medical applications
Pagáčová, Lenka ; Tichý, Jiří (referee) ; Kazda, Tomáš (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with the influence of different carbon materials on the properties of Li-S accumulators. The theoretical part of the thesis describes primary and secondary electrochemical sources with a focus on medical applications. The second chapter deals individually with a lithium article. The main part of the thesis is the practical production of electrodes for Li-S accumulators using different types of carbon materials. The effects of these materials on the properties of accumulators are investigated to determine the most appropriate in terms of capacity and stability.

Purification of flue-gas desulfurization
Křesťan, Jan ; Špiláček, Michal (referee) ; Hrnčířová, Michaela (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is theoretical elaboration of flue-gas desulfurization and emission limits of sulphur dioxide. Thesis is divided into three parts. First part is about content of sulphur in fuel, formation of sulphur oxides and their influence on human health and environment. Second part is dedicated to sources of sulphur dioxide, present emission situation in the Czech Republic and emission limits of sulphur dioxide. The third part describes methods how to reduce emissions of sulphur dioxide, especially methods of flue-gas desulfurization. The thesis is based on technical texts, Czech laws about air pollution and data from the Czech hydrometeorological institute.

Využití kombinovaného hnojiva ve výživě pšenice ozimé
Moravanský, Jakub
The aim of this work is the utilization of combined fertilizer in winter wheat nutrition. The experiment was conducted in two growing seasons (2020-2021; 2021-2022) at the experimental site in Žabčice. The examined fertilizer FertiTOP 44 NPS was applied in early spring in two doses (54 kg/ha N and 30 kg/ha N). As a control treatment, the common nitrogen technology was used with the application of LAD 27 fertilizer at a dose of 30 kg/ha N. Additional fertilization of every treatment during the vegetation was identical. (LAD 27: 65 kg/ha N; DAM 390: 40 kg/ha N). The application of the combined fertilizer FertiTOP 44 NPS in full dose positively influenced the growth, yield and grain quality of winter wheat. The plant analysis during the vegetation showed a statistically significant effect of fertilization by full dose of FertiTOP 44 NPS on dry weight. There was also increase in grain yield in both years under study (+0.6 t/ha in 2021; +0.3 t/ha in 2022). At the same time, the protein content increased (+0.5% in 2021; +1.1% in 2022). For gluten content, the results were similar to the control. For the sedimentation parameter, an increase was observed in both years (+3.5 ml in 2021; +7 ml in 2022). These results are indicating that the application of phosphorus, sulphur and trace elements in winter wheat nutrition improves the baking quality of the grain.

Využití přírodních hydroabsorbentů při mimokořenové výživě máku setého
Jelínek, Mojmír
The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effect of a combination of foliar application of sulphur together with a natural form of superabsorbent polymers (SAP) in the spring poppy variety (Papaver somniferum L.) Onyx. The effect of sulphur application in the form of ammonium thiosulphate and elemental sulphur, both without SAP and in combination with SAP, on crop yield was investigated in a field experiment on a total area of 1.25 ha in the locality of Bedihošt' municipality. The evaluation of the effect was mainly based on hectare yield, then germination and thousand seed weight (HTS) were monitored, the health status of the crop was evaluated and an economic evaluation was made both in terms of total cost and with respect to the application of sulphur and SAP alone. The best results were obtained in the plot where ammonium thiosulphate alone was applied, followed by the combination of ammonium thiosulphate with SAP. The results show a very strong correlation between yield and germination (r = 0.96). In contrast, the effect of SAP was not sufficiently demonstrated in this work. The overall economic evaluation when all costs were included was positive only for the application of ammonium thiosulphate without SAP, all other options were loss making. In a direct comparison of the variants with the calculation of only the effect of sulphur and SAP, the application of ammonium thiosulphate without SAP and with SAP came out positive, while elemental sulphur with SAP and without SAP came out negative.

Start-up phase of a denitrifying sulphur reactor
Marková, Jana ; Hrich, Karel (referee) ; Malá, Jitka (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the start-up phase of the denitrification sulfur reactor, which is used to remove nitrogenous substances from water. The main content of this work was the investigation of the influence of various parameters on the progress of the start-up phase with the aim of their optimization. For this research, three column reactors with different operating parameters were developed at the Institute of Chemistry, Brno University of Technology. The reactors were operated throughout the start-up phase, and samples were taken regularly during the run-up phase for subsequent analysis. It was evident from the measurement results that the appropriate setting of the input parameters of the column test, which was the HRT 15 h and a filling ratio of S:CaCO3 1:2, a high removal efficiency of nitrates from the model water exceeding 93% was achieved in just 15 days. Furthermore, it was found that the HRT of 10 h is not sufficient for the course of autotrophic denitrification and caused a prolongation of the start-up phase, which is economically less favorable.

Trends in sulphur and nitrogen occult deposition across the Northern Hemisphere
Švorc, Daniel ; Hůnová, Iva (advisor) ; Stráník, Vojtěch (referee)
The aim of my bachelor thesis is to collect data of concentrations and depositions of sulfur and nitrogen from occult precipitation, using the research of available scientific publications. Through atmospheric deposition are pollutants from air transported into other environmental spheres. It has two main components: dry (which takes place mainly by gravitational processes and its ongoing) and wet (which takes place in the presence of precipitations). Wet component consist of vertical and occult parts, representing the types of precipitations. Establishing total wet deposition encounter a problem in establishing a occult deposition. Problem is, in particular, setting of deposition flux, for which it is necessary to determinate a number of parameters. A considerable part of studies, therefore, do not examine the deposition itself, because of complexity of assessment, but examines chemical composition of fog, low clouds and rime, which is proportionally related to values of occult deposition. Most studies were examining from occult precipitation a fog, especially at higher altitudes, where due to the more frequent occurrence, significant contribute to the total atmospheric wet deposition. Occult precipitations are in longer contact with vegetation, and unlike the rainfall, are surrounded whole leaf,...

Trace and minor elements in coal and methods of their investigation
Páchová, Helena ; Opluštil, Stanislav (advisor) ; Sýkorová, Ivana (referee)
The aim of the bachelor thesis is to provide an overview of the minor and trace elements in coal matter and to characterize their origin, distribution and effect on quality of coal in term of its industrial utilization, including potential environmental impacts. The thesis describes main methods currently used when investigating coal geochemistry and mineralogy. The thesis includes overview of the distribution of these elements in the major coal deposits of the Czech Republic.
