| dc.description.abstract | A major trend in the 21st century is the protection of the environment from a global perspective, which is associated with reducing emissions and reducing waste production. Therefore, we try to apply the same trends in aviation. With the help of progressive technologies, we ensure the reduction of emissions. However, the issue of waste generated on board of aircraft during the flight is not comprehensively identified. This diploma thesis deals with the topic of reducing waste production on board. The main goal of this work is to analyze the current state of the problem and the subsequent creation of innovative solutions in the form of operating procedures for organizations operating in aviation. The laws and directives valid in the territory of the Slovak Republic in the application of relevant regulations and other EU legislation were used to prepare the work. Articles, studies and methodologies of foreign authors have contributed appropriately to the completion of the theoretical part of the thesis and to a better understanding of the issue. The first chapter presents the current situation and legislative requirements in the field of waste generated on board aircraft. The second chapter describes waste recovery processes and related processes such as landfilling, incineration and recycling. The possibilities of using alternative materials and the application of optimal recycling technologies are described in the third chapter. The practical part of the work was the creation of progressive procedures on board aircraft and in handling or catering companies. At the end of the work, the impact of the created procedures on the environmental, socioeconomic, and operational environment is described. | en_US |
