Students will be able to:

critically evaluate the natural zeolite materials;

orient themselves in the possibilities of using clay minerals, zeolites and molecular sieves.

Studenti budou umět:

kriticky hodnotit přírodní zeolitové suroviny,

orientovat se v možnostech využití jílových minerálů, zeolitů a molekulárních sít
