Profile
PhD study of Water Management and Water Structures study branch is focused on complex scientific training, methodology of independent research work and development of knowledge in this area of water management theory. Basic theoretical disciplines, such as mathematics, construction and applied physics, hydromechanics, hydrology, hydropedology, soil mechanics, water chemistry, water quality in a river basin and other subjects are presented. As technical applications there are mainly hydro-technical structures, hydro-amelioration structures, waterworks, waste water treatment, municipal drainage, water management systems, reconstruction of water supply piping network, restoration of water courses and reservoirs, waste in water management. Scientific preparation is based on knowledge of theoretical disciplines of natural sciences base together with theoretical and scientific disciplines of water management orientation. Graduate of PhD study is ready to work in research and development, using creative approach for problems solving and development of new methods in current water management and their application in construction of water management structures. PhD study is closely connected with scientific, research and development activities at training workplace and with technical practice. Continuous active scientific and pedagogical activity is a good condition for eventual qualification of graduates as academic employees at Universities.

Issued topics of Doctoral Study Program
The constructed wetlands of new generations are currently experiencing revitalization - it turns out almost three decades have gone in the wrong direction. Current new filtering systems only function properly when properly designed and implemented pulse wiring. The principle of pulse operation is strongly dependent on a drain element operated without electricity and without human service. However, there is a lack of description of the device on the hydraulic side, detailed testing and definition of the required characteristics. The dissertation would compare available devices and evaluate what devices fit for the type of filter.
Tutor: Kriška-Dunajský Michal, doc. Ing., Ph.D.
The aim of this dissertation thesis is the processing of the issue of reuse of gray water for non-drinking purposes in combination with heat generation through a heat exchanger.
Tutor: Hlavínek Petr, prof. Ing., CSc., MBA
The dissertation will be aimed at the research on the behaviour of selected emerging micropollutants (pesticides and/or veterinary antibiotics) in laboratory denitrifying bioreactors. The goal is to elucidate whether the reaction conditions fostering denitrification are suitable for the biodegradation of emerging micropollutants and whether these compounds affect the bioreactor main function, i.e. denitrification efficiency.
Tutor: Malá Jitka, doc. Ing., Ph.D.
The aim of the thesis is to propose and validate a methodology for solving the problem of failure of embankment dams due to overtopping. The proposed methodology will include an evaluation of dams in the system of water works, eventually additional cross section structures (e.g. road embankments), in the catchment area and the proposal to minimize the probability of domino effect.
Tutor: Jandora Jan, prof. Ing., Ph.D.
The water overflow with a relatively thin or narrow overflow nappe is influenced by surface tension and friction that occur simultaneously. Both effects can not be separated when using the same liquid with the same surface tension. In some cases, water may contain surfactants that change the surface tension value. Change of surface tension influence the discharge characteristics of weir. The aim of this doctoral thesis is to quantify the influence of surface tension independently by a series of measurements of overflow with water of different surface tensions. The benefit of the work will be in the determination of the effect of the surface tension on the overflow, thus increase accuracy of the discharge coefficient.
Tutor: Zachoval Zbyněk, doc. Ing., Ph.D.
Main goal of the thesis is evaluation of microwave pyrolysis of solid waste. Final product is oil, gas and Carbon. Work will be carried on pilot plant of microwave pyrolysis in AdMaS Centre. Work will be carried on in cooperation with faculty of chemistry and company BIONIC.
Sediment abrasion is caused by mutual contact between two particles, which produces an at least one other particle. The result of the abrasion is to increase the number of particles and reduce their size. Downstream fining of sediment particles is caused by abrasion, sedimentation, entrainment, particle sorting, geometric changes of the channel and changes of discharge. The aim of the doctoral thesis is to determine the characteristics of the abrasion by means of laboratory experiments. The verification will be done by long-term simulation of the sediment transport with abrasion at the selected river. The benefit of the work will be in include the abrasion characteristics to the sediment transport models, thus significantly increasing their accuracy.
Goal of the thesis is development of technology of municipal wastewater by anaerobic process with aggregated biomass and sludge separation by means of submerged membrane module. Work will be focused on solution of problems connected with membrane clogging by operation, cleaning and process control.
Main goal of the thesis is design, testing and pilot testing of technology for cellulose separation from wastewater followed by energetic utilization. Technology for cellulose separation from wastewater will be developed. Based on laboratory testing pilot plat will be developed and tested on selected municipal WWTP´s.
The work will focus on the design of suitable technological process in building of the sewer networks, which will be solved reduction of drainage effect of the sewer in urban areas in order to meet legislative requirements and environmental requirements.
Tutor: Raclavský Jaroslav, doc. Ing., Ph.D.
Get experiences in branch of plane and point laser anemometry for realization experiments at flow range. Enlargement range of given methods. Auton. realization measur., evaluation of velocity fields and their comparison with numerical model results.
Tutor: Zubík Pavel, Ing., Ph.D.
The dissertation will focus on the analysis and processing of large volumes of data obtained from Smart Water Meters, focusing on the determination of the minimum night consumption in the pressure zones and the water loss of drinking water in its distribution. Methods of statistical evaluation, data filtering and their possible replenishment will be proposed, and methods of establishing minimum night consumption and water loss indicators will be proposed.
Tutor: Tuhovčák Ladislav, doc. Ing., CSc.
The aim is assessing the stability of banks, prepared by forecasting methods for determining retreat bank line, design and assessment of the effectiveness of biotechnical stabilization of the banks to significantly poor substrate.
Tutor: Šlezingr Miloslav, prof. Dr. Ing.
Goal of the thesis is use of microalgae for purification of wastewater with high content of nutrients. Dissertation will be carried on research projects in cooperation with research center AdMaS and company Photon Systems Instruments. In the frame of research problems of process dimensioning and nutrients harvesting from algae will be solved. Results will be verified on real wastewaters.
