Production and characterization of biochar derived from different kind of bran
Černíková, Eliška ; Kalina, Michal (referee) ; Pořízka, Jaromír (advisor)
The bachelor thesis was focused on production and characterization of biochar prepared from different sorts of bran. According to the philosophy of circular economy bran, the biproduct of flour production, was chosen for the production of biochar. This lignocellulosic material was walked through pyrolysis to broaden potential application. Biochar was prepared by slow pyrolysis and considering its properties multiple applications are possible. Biochar’s usage is limited by European Biochar Certificate. The theoretical part contains general description of biochar properties, requests of European Biochar Certificate and possible analytical methods. In the practical part process of biochar preparation and biochar characterization per chosen methods are described. Analysed properties were: specific surface, pH, particle size distribution, electrical conductivity, composition of elements and content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Based on measured data possible applications were recommended. Only biochar from rye bran fulfilled the strict criteria of European Biochar Certificate. However all of the prepared materials can be used in agriculture, except from rice bran biochar which according to EBC can only be used in material industry.

Polycyclotrimerization of alkynes with internal ethynyl groups
Sokol, Jiří ; Sedláček, Jan (advisor) ; Balcar, Hynek (referee)
The diynes of both aliphatic and aromatic types comprising either (i) two internal ethynyl groups or (ii) one internal and one terminal ethynyl group in the molecule were revealed as appropriate monomers for the Co2(CO)8 catalyzed polycyclotrimerization yielding high-molecular-weight products. The polycyclotrimerization of aliphatic diynes with a short (CH2)2 link between ethynyl groups and the polycyclotrimerization of aromatic diynes provided polycyclotrimer networks with tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexasubstituted benzene segments. The polycyclotrimers of aliphatic diynes did not exhibit microporous texture. On the other side, the polycyclotrimers of aromatic monomers were mostly microporous with specific surface area up to SBET = 499 m2 /g. The nitrogen desorption isotherms on microporous polycyclotrimers exhibited a significant unclosed hysteresis. This indicated that the penetration of nitrogen into polymers was accompanied by formation of temporary pores or opening permanent pores of worse accessibility.

Possibilities of using recycled glass for the preparation of blended cements
Dobrovolný, Petr ; Všianský,, Dalibor (referee) ; Dvořák, Karel (advisor)
This work focuses on the possibility of using recycled glass in the manufacture of blended portland cements. It examines the possibilities to improve pozzolanic properties of recycled glass with new milling processes, the formation of agglomerates material during the course of grinding and their subsequent effect on the hydration process of binders. It is also the optimization of the grinding process with respect to the wear of grinding bodies, grinding energy consumption and maximize the performance of the mill.
