Abstract:

This diploma thesis addresses the local issue of utility water quality in the municipality
of Jedov, where the construction of water treatment plant and the distribution of
drinking water to consumers is being considered. The study evaluates the main
pollutants present in the water source, the technological condition of the existing
infrastructure, and proposes appropriate treatment technologies. The theoretical part,
prepared in the form of a literature review, describes the municipality of Jedov and the
technological condition of the local water supply systém, which is not directly related to
the design of the Jedov water treatment plant. Furthermore, it presents studies focusing
on health risks and methods of pollutant removal, specifically those substances that
exceeded permissible limits according to water quality analyses provided by Vodárenská
a.s. The practical part of the thesis consists of calculations of the required flow rates and
key design parameters, which were subsequently used for the proposal of technologies
aimed at removing contaminants (nitrates and pesticides), as well as for the design of
the water treatment plant as a structural facility (drinking water and wastewater storage
tanks). Several technology suppliers were considered and evaluated, from which
suitable options were selected. Subsequently, technical drawings were prepared,
comprising a vertical chemical-technological scheme, a floor plan of the water treatment
plant building, two cross-sections and two installation schemes.

Keywords:
