Možnosti využití tenkostěnných hliníkových odpadů pocházejících ze zdravotnictví

Abstract

This bachelor's thesis focuses on the issue of recycling thin-walled aluminum waste originating from the healthcare sector, particularly packaging materials such as pharmaceutical blister packs, aerosol dispensers, and aluminum containers. In the experimental part, samples of consumer aluminum waste were analyzed. The chemical composition of selected components was determined using ED-XRF and OES methods. The waste blister packs were subsequently crushed and processed into composite molded products. The resulting materials were evaluated in terms of their microstructure and potential applications. The results show that such aluminum waste can be effectively utilized as a secondary raw material for the production of composite products with low mechanical property requirements. The thesis contributes to the topic of the circular economy and sustainable aluminum management in the field of healthcare waste.
