Measurement of greenhouse gas concentrations
Dohnal, Jan ; Novák, Vítězslav (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This semester thesis deals with the greenhouse effect, various gases and methods of measurement. On the greenhouse effect is viewed from its historical dating, despite changes in atmospheric composition and reactions of individual institutions. It contains a theoretical analysis of the individual gases. It focuses on the most harmful greenhouse gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons and halons. Analysis methods for detection of gaseous substances. Part of this work is focus on the detection of nitrogen dioxide and chloro-fluorocarbon. The data is processed using a microcontroller and then sent to an Internet server thingspeak.com. If the device proves successful, will be used as a laboratory exercise in the course Ecology in electronics.

The use of nitrous oxide to increase the performance parameters of an SI engine
Dobeš, Tomáš ; Bazala, Jiří (referee) ; Beran, Martin (advisor)
This scientific article focuses on the use of nitrous oxide as an additive to fuel for improving the performance parameters of a spark-ignition engine. The results of experiments show that adding nitrous oxide to the fuel-air mixture can improve combustion and thus the performance of the engine. The benefits include increased power, reduced nitrogen oxide emissions, and improved combustion efficiency. However, it is also necessary to consider possible negative effects, such as increased nitrogen oxide formation at high temperatures. Overall, the use of nitrous oxide as an additive to fuel can bring significant improvements in the performance of a spark-ignition engine if used with caution and in accordance with relevant standards and guidelines

Stem emissions from poplar hybrids grown in a shortrotation plantation contribute to ecosystem balance of nitrous oxide and methane
Macháčová, Kateřina ; Kreuzwieser, J. ; Rennenberg, H.
The expansion of short-rotation coppices (SRCs) of fast-growing trees can affect the global balance of greenhouse\ngases (GHGs). These include not only carbon dioxide (CO2) but also methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide\n(N2O), both naturally produced by soil microorganisms. Trees are known to exchange CH4 and N2O with\nthe atmosphere. To date, however, the fluxes of these gases from fast-growing trees have been excluded from\nestimation of the GHGs balance for SRCs. Our objectives were to quantify and scale up CH4 and N2O fluxes\nfrom stems of the fast-growing poplar hybrids Max4 and Monviso at an SRC in southwest Germany. Our\ncase study shows that the stems of both hybrids were sources of N2O and CH4, even though consumption of\nCH4 was also observed. The hybrids did not differ in their exchange capacity. Nitrogen fertilization resulted in\nhigher stem N2O emissions compared to non-fertilized trees. The emissions of N2O and CH4 from stems contributed\nas much as 1.5% and 1.2% of soil N2O emission and soil CH4 uptake, respectively.

Co3O4 Supported on Different Supports for N2O Decomposition.
Klyushina, A. ; Pacultová, K. ; Jirátová, Květa ; Obalová, L.
In this work Co3O4 catalysts supported on different kind of shaped supports (rings, quadrulobes) were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method. As support materials commercial supports made of MgAl oxides, Al2O3 and TiO2 were used. The catalysts were characterized by AAS, XRD, Raman, FTIR, SEM, H2-TPR and nitrogen adsorption methods and tested for nitrous oxide decomposition.
