of dissertation thesis Exogenic alteration of geomaterials with anomalous content of hazardous elements The research of waste materials from high temperature processes belongs to current issues solved in the field of modern environmental geochemistry. Current research has mainly been focused on fly ash and bottom ash coming from metallurgy, combustion and other industrial processes. In these wastes of different grain size, accumulation of hazardous elements occurs. These elements may be present in low concentrations in combusted coal or municipal solid waste or it may come from ore processing. Hazardous compounds are also intentionally added during the technological process (e.g. making of lead glass). Modern industrial plants are equipped with effective filtration systems, but this might not be in the past. In the Czech Republic and elsewhere in the world old environmental burdens are and will be addressed. Current modern filtration systems are never 100% efficient. Contamination of surrounding environment in a lesser extent can still occur. The production of lead glass (Bohemian Crystal) is based on the addition of lead compounds in the glass raw material. Additions of these substances providing a high refractive index of the finished product. Also compounds containing other hazardous elements...
