Summary
Předat studentům širší teoretické a praktické znalosti z oblasti vlivu metalurgické výroby na životní prostředí, legislativy v oblasti životního prostředí, zásad nakládání s průmyslovými odpady a recyklace odpadů. Dále pak definovat a charakterizovat škodliviny a odpady vznikající v průběhu jednotlivých technologií hutní prvovýroby i druhovýroby, včetně BAT - opatření integrovaných do procesu.
