Preparation of humic hydrogels with incorporated metal ions
Palková, Michaela ; Kislinger, Jiří (referee) ; Sedláček, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the study of interaction of cupric ions as a model heavy metal with humic-substances in a hydrogel form. Main objective of the work was to suggest and optimize methods of preparing hydrogel forms of humic acids with the cupric ions and to study the influence of the ions on the properties of the prepared hydrogels while using analytical and physic-chemical methods. The investigated parameters for the characterization of prepared hydrogels were inner pH of the hydrogels and the pH of the solution at different stages of preparation, the quantity of copper ions in the hydrogels, the possibility of extraction and characterization of the structure of resulting hydrogel forms. The experimental results have conformed the expected influence of metal contact in the hydrogel forms of humic substances

Diffusion processes in modified humic gels
Grunt, Jakub ; Sedláček, Petr (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
This bachelor thesis presents a study on diffusion of cupric ions in humic acid gels. A total of four types of samples were made during a modified preparation of gels. Humic acids were dissolved either in sodium hydroxide or in the solution of sodium triphosphate. Subsequently, hydrochloric acid and magnesium chlorid were used for "precipitation" of the gels. Gained samples differed particularly in the nature of interactions forming their gel structures. All the samples were subjected to diffusion experiments. Two different methods – constant-source diffusion and immediate planar source diffusion – were used to assign the diffusion coefficients. Both these methods were based on monitoring how the diffusion profiles of cupric ions in gels develop in time and on assigning the overall diffusion flow. The aim of the thesis was to assess the impact of gel preparation procedure and resultant structure on diffusion coefficients of cupric ions and their transport attributes in gels in general. Two different methods of diffusion inquiry were chosen particularly to assess the impact of cupric ion concentration on the diffusion coefficient.

Diffusivity of humic hydrogels
Král, Jan ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
Presented diploma thesis focuses on the study of diffusion of cupric ions in humic acid gels. A total of fifth different standards of humic acids and one sample humic acid prepared from same source as in bachelor's thesis, on which this thesis continues, were used for preparation solutions of humic acids. Thereafter, these solutions were used for preparation of agarose hydrogels, which were necessary in following diffusion experiments. The objective of the work was to compare transport properties of humic standards between themselves and then compare standards with humic acid prepared from same source as in bachelor's thesis. Measure, which was used to determine the transport properties, was comparison of effective diffusion coefficients. Method of instantaneous planar source diffusion was used to compare them. This method was based monitoring temporal evolution of diffusion profiles of cupric ions in humic hydrogels. Copper ions were selected as diffusing medium because of their high affinity and strong bonds to humic acids.

Utilization of flow-coulometry in study of transport metal ions in humic gels
Kalina, Michal ; Pabst, Willi (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the study of non-stationary diffusion of cupric ions in humic gels. The main objective of the work was the optimalization of conditions for using the electrochemical analyzer EcaFlow 150 GLP for the study of diffusion experiments. Next part was focused on reaching of constant concentration profiles of cupric ions in humic gel. Last aim of the study was the bond strength between cupric ions and humic acids. Diffusion was characterized by the values of the diffusion flux and cupric ions concentration profiles in humic gel. The data necessary for calculation were obtained by the electrochemical analyses of the extracts of each slice after diffusion on the EcaFlow 150 GLP. It has been proved that after application of several adjustment is this method suitable for the study of diffusion experiments. By using of different extraction agents was obtained the fractionalization of cupric ions according to the bond strength to humic acids.

Diffusion of cupric ions in humic hydrogels
Grunt, Jakub ; Pabst, Willi (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
Presented diploma thesis focuses on the study of diffusion of cupric ions in humic acid hydrogels. A total of eight different hydrogels were prepared by dissolving the humic acids with sodium hydroxide and sodium triphosphate. For the purpose of precipitation and cross linking, hydrochloric acid and chlorides of magnesium, calcium and iron were used during a modified preparation of gels. Different gel-forming interactions were achieved by modifying the preparation of hydrogel systems. The aim of the thesis was to assess the effect of gel preparation procedure on the transport properties of the gels. Therefore, diffusion coeficients were determined for all samples. Two different methods - constant-source diffusion and instantaneous planar source diffusion - were used to assign the diffusion coefficients. Methods differ in source concentrations of cupric ions and are suitable for assessing the impact of the concentration on the diffusion coefficient. Both these methods were based on monitoring temporal evolution of diffusion profiles of cupric ions and on assigning the overall diffusion flow. Copper ions were elected as diffusing medium because of their high affinity and strong binding to humic acids. Measurements show that gels prepared using polyphosphate allow slightly faster diffusion of cupric ions and that the constant-source method provides higher diffusion coefficients in comparison to instantaneous planar source method.

Influence of properties of humic acids on diffusion of cupric ions in humic hydrogels
Král, Jan ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
Presented bachelor's thesis focuses on the study of diffusion of cupric ions in humic acid gels. The objective of the work was to assess how the properties effect diffusion in humic gels. In the experimental part, three samples of humic acids of different purity were studied. Method of instantaneous planar source diffusion was used to compare them. This methods was based on monitoring temporal evolution of diffusion profiles of cupric ions in gels. Copper ions were elected as diffusing medium because of their high affinity and strong bonds to humic acids.

Diffusion of cupric ions in humic gel
Kalina, Michal ; Gregorová,, Eva (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
The bachelor´s thesis deals with the study of non–stationary diffusion of copper (II) ions in humic gel. The objective of the study was to validate that the diffusion is influenced by the volume of cupric ions solution and by the length of tubes filled with humic gel. Diffusion was characterized by the value of diffusion flux and by the copper (II) ionic concentration profiles in humic gel. The data necessary for calculation were obtained by spectrophotometric measuring of the extracts of each slice after diffusion.

Study of reactivity and mobility of Cu(II) ions in humic hydrogels
Hegr, Martin ; Solná, Irena (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
This bachalor´s thesis is focused on the study of diffusion of cupric ions in gel of humic acid. The objective of this thesis was to investigate the effect of the concentration of cupric ions supply source duration of diffusion on transport through the gel. Cupric ions was used like the diffusion medium. Cupric ions are thanks their high affinty for the humic acids ideal on the diffusion through the humic gel. Three different concentration of CuCl2 were compared, specifically 0,05M, 0,1M and 1M, and also three different times, specifically 10 hours, 1 day and 3 days. To compare them was used method of diffusion couple. The data necessary for calculation were obtained by UVVIS spectrophotometry.
