Energy Intensity Reduction of a Professional Laundry Care Process
Bobák, Petr ; Klemeš,, Jiří (referee) ; Noskievič, Pavel (referee) ; Stehlík, Petr (advisor)
Doctoral thesis deals with professional laundry care process and reduction of energy intensity and use of other operational commodities used in the process. Professional laundry care process is a specific energy intensive process; its purpose is to re-establish original properties of the now dirty laundry so that it may fulfil its functions again. This is basically a recycling and regeneration process comprising many sub-operations. Key operation is washing of the laundry in a washing bath, which removes impurities from the laundry. This thesis describes the most common technology of impurities removal, which is washing in a hot washing bath in cooperation with mechanical work and detergents. However, all of the described procedures may also be applied on alternative technologies, such as ozone washing, washing with low-temperature enzymes and ultrasound. Water is applied in all these technologies as a soaking agent. Water must have appropriate properties and must be removed from the laundry after the washing process in subsequent operations (drying, ironing, and pressing). Theoretical introduction of the thesis describes professional laundry care process in detail, and continues with mathematical modelling of the process and its main sub-operations (washing, drying) using mass and heat balance, and data acquisition and their application in research and development. Thesis further describes design of information system on the basis of relational database controlled by web application. This system enables to organize data and information from various sources – measured experimental data, data concerning measurement devices, operational records of machines, etc. Thesis further proposes how to evaluate and reduce energy intensity of a process. Descriptions are validated by examples and case studies. Key section of the thesis is a chapter describing experimental infrastructure. This infrastructure integrates several instalments of laundry equipment and is a fully functional operation of industrial laundry facility with 500kg/shift capacity, which serves as a model of energy intensive process. Sophisticated infrastructure and data acquisition system allows measuring wide spectrum of physical entities and examining factors influencing energy intensity of processes, and relationships between these factors as well as effectiveness of various savings measures in real life facilities.

Formal Caregivers in Retirement Homes and Their Role in Fulfilling Wishes of the Elderly
Churá, Monika ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Kotherová, Zuzana (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on formal caregivers in retirement homes and their role in fulfilling the wishes of the elderly. It describes the system of individual planning and presents its concrete form on the example of a home for the elderly established by the Central Bohemia Region. The case study uses semi-structured interviews with seven formal caregivers of the retirement home and an internal methodology of individual planning. The work captures the attitudes of the caregivers towards individual planning and the ways in which they deal with this task. The analysis demonstrates the importance of collaboration between the home's staff and the role of the individual planning coordinator in managing key workers. Carers' attitudes to individual planning can be classified on a spectrum of subjective rejection/acceptance. This rejection/acceptance is related to perceptions of the benefits and appropriateness of the current form of individual planning. The main problems faced by formal caregivers in individual planning are identified. These include lack of clarity about individual planning and a lack of understanding of its importance not only by caregivers but also by the clients. Some caregivers do not identify with the principle of individual planning in its current form and exclude it from the...

The use of marketing methods in Czech companies
JAMRICHOVÁ, Jana
The main objective of this bachelor thesis was to identify how marketing activities are used and implemented in selected companies operating in the Czech Republic, and to compare the collected data with marketing activities of a selected company. A partial objective was to propose recommendations based on the identified situation. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is based on the analysis of specialised literature and investigates terminology, such as marketing, need, wish, products, demand, offer, market, company marketing program, and also the characteristics of marketing activities. The first stage of the practical part involved the analysis of marketing activities of a selected company. The analysed company did not wish to be revealed and thus, for the purposes of this thesis, it was renamed "XY". The primary data were collected by way of controlled structured interview with the marketing director of "XY". The main purpose of the interview was to map the role and use of marketing in the selected company. Furthermore, the interview aimed to identify how the selected company implements marketing activities and how important these activities are within the company. The results of the controlled interview indicate that "XY" creates a marketing strategy and annual marketing plan every year. The analysis furthermore revealed that "XY" defines marketing correctly, i.e. as a process aiming at satisfying the needs and wishes of the customers, but cannot use and implement it to the full extent as it focuses too much on promotion activities and establishing a certain image on the market. The second half of the practical part presents the survey by way of online queries of selected companies operating in the Czech Republic. The objective of this survey was to reveal how the selected companies perceive marketing and how they approach its use within the company. The results indicate that marketing affects the management of Czech companies only marginally. Out of the 50 companies involved, only 6 strictly Czech companies (12%) can define marketing correctly. Up to 88% of the companies involved (44 out of 50) does not know the proper meaning of marketing and mistake marketing particularly for promotion activities, advertising, and building of the company image on the market.
