Thesis topic:
Study of microorganism biocidal resistance in technological and waste waters
Motivation
Solution
This thesis will focus on the issue of resistance of microorganisms in the field of water technology (i.e. water supply, energetics) and the related microbial resistance to the materials used. The aim will be to monitor resistant forms of microorganisms, their adaptation and eventual proliferation in relation to specific test substances (based on classical biocides, physical and physical-chemical technologies) in laboratory conditions and in operating conditions. Furthermore, the work will focus on the study of biofilms, its species representation and the identification of typically represented microorganisms that evoke the formation of biofilm, and last but not least, the resistance of selected materials in terms of potential microbial growth will be tested.
