Risk Assessment of Textile Waste Management
Šindlerová, Vanesa ; Vymazal, Tomáš (referee) ; Hrabová, Kristýna (advisor)
This thesis deals with environmental risks arising from textile waste management. The introduction describes the context of textile problematics and maps the current situation of textile waste management. The main goal of this thesis is to determinate the environmental risks of low percentage of recycling. Recycling is one way of dealing with textile that mitigates the impact on the environment. For the evaluation of the causes and consequences of the researched problem are used Bow-tie analysis and Ishikawa’s diagram. The results of the work bring environmental risks resulting from the application of those selected methods. Part of the thesis is a questionnaire that evaluates the individual’s attitude to textiles. Results of the questionnaire reveals that not needed textiles are perceived as risk to the environment. At the same time, consumer behavior does not correspond with efforts to mitigate the identified impacts.

Nanosafety and the Current Trends in the Risk Assessment of Nanoparticles
Valovič, Stela ; Poláčik, Ján (referee) ; Adamec, Vladimír (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the current state of nanosafety. The aim of this paper was to review and critically analyze approaches to facilitate the risk assassment of nanomaterials. In the first part it provides an overview of the most important methods and software tools that are used in this field. Methods were analyzed against a set of relevant criteria. Criteria include consideration of exposure, life cycle and physicochemical properties, transparency, applicability and the field of application. Different criteria were chosen for the software tools. Based on results, a new approach was suggested. The approach takes the form of a diagram based on questions. The purpose of the suggested approach is to recommend the most relevant method, tool or their combination to assess the safety of a nanomaterial depending on known characteristics. The approach was also implemented in a software tool.

Potential risks of nano-particle materials utilization
Flimelová, Miroslava ; Šmejkalová, Daniela (referee) ; Kučerík, Jiří (advisor)
The thesis „Potential risks of nano-particle materials utilization“ summarizes scientific knowledge on nanotechnology, nano-particle and nano-chemistry. The aim of the work is the literature overview on potential problems associated with their utilization. Thesis is focused particularly on nanoparticles exploitation and limits connected with their understanding and prediction of their fate in the environment. The impact of nanotechnology on the society and every-day life is discussed with respect to various risk sources.

Externalities in Transportation Industry, their solution possibilities and related risks
Magaudo, Salvatore ; Skřehot, Petr Adolf (referee) ; Martincová, Jana Victoria (advisor)
The target of the diploma thesis is to explain the concept of externality in transport and evaluate the current state of the traffic situation in the city of Brno with a focus on the location Tomkovo square, where is in progress the construction of another part of a large city ring road. Externalities will be evaluated in the locality with emphasis on the negative ones and their solutions. Based on theoretical knowledge, the results of the evaluation of the questionnaire survey, a case study will be created with the current facts of the consequences of transport and will support changes and opportunities to improve the quality of life in the locality. The results will be presented in public administration.
