In this work the effect of Mg addition on structure as well as kinetics of crystallisation of Zn-Al-Cu cast alloy was presented. To the zinc alloy was added 0.1% mass of Mg. The alloy was cast into a metal mould. Thermo-derivative analysis was performed using the UMSA platform (Universal Metallurgical Simulator and Analyzer). The investigated alloys were freely cooled down with a rate of 0.1°C s-1. For the structure analysis were used results obtained using light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy.

Cast zinc alloys have similar properties to aluminium alloys. The differences are due to the lower melting point and higher density. Zinc has a density of 7.14 g/cm3, a melting point of 419.5°C and the boiling temperature of 906º C. In the temperature range from 150 to 200°C, zinc has good susceptibility to plastic deformation. It is also resistant to atmospheric factor influence, but is not resistant to acids. The main use of zinc alloy, is the production of thin-walled casts that require high precision. Zinc alloys are also used for die casting moulds, housings and covers as well as a variety of devices that are used in the precision industry, electrical engineering, automotive and construction industry. Properly performed chemical modification leads to improve of properties of the produced castings. Therefore it is very important to know how the cast structure with the change of the chemical composition by adding metallic modifiers to the liquid metal. In this work there was studied the effect of chemical modification of cast zinc alloy on the properties and microstructure of the alloys before and after modification. Modified alloys were prepared by adding modifiers in the range of 0.1% to 1% in form of Ti- Sr and B as aluminium master alloy and then cast into the metal moulds. Next the thermo-derivative analysis was performed of the modified Zn-Al-Cu alloy, the microstructure investigation was carried out using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy with EDS X-ray microanalysis usage as well as hardness was measured of the modified Zn-Al-C alloys.

The experiments conducted are focused on natural organic substances, removal from water in ion-exchange process, ultrafiltration process and ion exchange-ultrafiltration integrated process. The water from the Odra River and model solution were investigated. In treatment processes, various doses of 5 anion-exchange resins as well as polyethersulphone membranes with different cut-offs were used. The efficiency of process was determined by measuring a decrease both in the colour intensity and the UV 254 nm absorbance. The results show that separation efficiency in integrated process depends on resin dose added to water before ultrafiltration and on the membrane cut-off as well. Among the resins tested the most efficient was MIEX ® resin. The ion-exchange process carried out prior to the ultrafiltration increased, especially for high cut-off membranes, NOM retention and resulted in the decrease of membrane fouling intensity.

Usuwano naturalne substancje organiczne z wody w procesach: wymiany jonowej, ultrafiltracji i zintegrowanego procesu wymiany jonowej-ultrafiltracji. Do badań użyto wodę z Odry i roztwór modelowy będący mieszaniną wody wodociągowej i wody z torfowiska. Badania przeprowadzono dla 5 typów żywic jonowymiennych. Testy ultrafiltracji wykonano, używając membran z polietersulfonu 0 cut-off 5, 10 i 30 kDa. Skuteczność procesu określano, mierząc zmniejszanie się intensywności barwy i absorbancji UV 254 nm. Otrzymane wyniki pokazały, że dla membran o cut-off 30 kDa ultrafiltracja poprzedzona wymianą jonową zwiększa skuteczność usuwania naturalnych substancji organicznych oraz ogranicza intensywność blokowania membran. Spośród testowanych żywic najskuteczniejsza zarówno w procesie samodzielnym, jak i w układzie zintegrowanym była makroporowata żywica MIEX®.
