Garant předmětu:

Martin Dočkal

Lecturer:

Martin Dočkal, Michal Sněhota, Martin Šanda

Tutor:

Martin Dočkal, Michal Sněhota, Martin Šanda

Supervisor:

Department of Landscape Water Conservation

Synopsis:

Principles of linear and circular economy with a focus on construction and municipal waste. Waste collection, utilization and disposal systems (municipal, construction waste). Landfill security, landfill gas, landfill technology and post-closure reclamation. Measurement of waste production, biowaste management-composting and anaerobic digestion. Radioactive waste in the Czech Republic. Remediation of pollution - remediation methods to decontaminate the territory.

Requirements:

In order to complete the course, attendance at exercises is required, as well as the processing of several semester-long tasks solved in the field and in the laboratory. Assignments must be handed in by predetermined dates, no later than before the exam.

Syllabus of lectures:

Introduction - circular waste management

Landfills, incinerators, recycling

Bio waste

Landfill protection, design + landfill technology

Landfill closure and reclamation + landfill gas

Legislation

Radioactive waste

Rehabilitation - theory

Remedial technology

Syllabus of tutorials:

Topics of waste management

Household waste - ASSIGNMENT OF RESEARCH

Motivation to sort waste

Packaging + use of recycled material

Waste collection system - RESEARCH

Site selection for waste management

Black landfills - monitoring in the field

Examples of rehabilitation works

The effect of toxic substances on organisms; contamination modeling

Proposal for remedial measures for soil decontamination

Study Objective:

The aim is to provide basic information on waste management for engineering practice. Students will get to know their waste production and find out the possibilities of improving waste separation options. In the laboratory, they will learn about the methods of contaminant transport.
