Terms for subject Environment (7009 entries)
palivo fuel (Solid, liquid, or gaseous material such as gas, gasoline, oil, coal or wood, used to produce heat or power by burning)
palivo biologické biofuel (A gaseous, liquid, or solid fuel that contains an energy content derived from a biological source. The organic matter that makes up living organisms provides a potential source of trapped energy that is beginning to be exploited to supply the ever-increasing energy demand around the world. An example of a biofuel is rapeseed oil, which can be used in place of diesel fuel in modified engines. The methyl ester of this oil, rapeseed methyl ester (RME), can be used in unmodified diesel engines and is sometimes known as biodiesel. Other biofuels include biogas and gasohol)
palivo fosilní fossil fuel (The energy-containing materials which were converted over many thousands of years from their original form of trees, plants and other organisms after being buried in the ground. Physical and chemical processes occurred in the Earth's crust that changed them into coal, peat, oil or natural gas)
palivo jaderné nuclear fuel (Nuclear fuels are obtained from inorganic minerals extracted by mining. Although they are at least partially consumed when used in nuclear reactors for the production of heat, they differ from fossil fuels in the way they release energy. Burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and gas, is a chemical reaction. Nuclear fuels, such as uranium, are destroyed by a process of spontaneous disintegration, called fission, and prompted by natural radioactivity. If the process is left to occur naturally in uranium-bearing rock, the rate of change is imperceptibly small. In a man-made nuclear reactor the energy-releasing processes of disintegration, which in the natural state happen slowly over thousands of millions of years, are compressed into minutes. The release of energy is harnessed to generate steam which drives electricity generators)
palivo motorové motor fuel (Any gaseous or liquid flammable fuel that burns in an internal combustion engine)
palivo neznečišťující non-polluting fuel (Clean fuel that does not release polluting emissions in the environment, such as methane)
palivo pro domácnosti domestic fuel (Fuels obtained from different sources that are used for domestic heating)
palivo z odpadků refuse derived fuel (Fuel produced from domestic refuse, after glass and metals have been removed from it, by compressing it to form briquettes used to fuel boilers)
palivový článek fuel element
památka monument (An object, especially large and made of stone, built to remember and show respect to a person or group of people, or a special place made for this purpose)
památka historická historical monument (Monument built in memory of an historical event)
památka přírodní natural monument (A natural/cultural feature which is of outstanding or unique value because of its inherent rarity, representative of aesthetic qualities or cultural significance. Guidance for selection of a natural monument is: 1. The area should contain one or more features of outstanding significance (appropriate natural features include spectacular waterfalls, caves, craters, fossil beds, sand dunes and marine features, along with unique or representative fauna and flora; associated cultural features might include cave dwellings, cliff-top forts, archaeological sites, or natural sites which have heritage significance to indigenous peoples).; 2. The area should be large enough to protect the integrity of the feature and its immediately related surroundings)
paovce hřivnatá Barbary sheep
papír paper (Felted or matted sheets of cellulose fibers, formed on a fine-wire screen from a dilute water suspension, and bonded together as the water is removed and the sheet is dried)
papír odpadový waste paper (Newspapers, magazines, cartons and other paper separated from solid waste for the purpose of recycling)
papír recyklovaný recycled paper (Paper that has been separated from the solid waste stream for utilization as a raw material in the manufacture of a new product. Not all paper in the waste stream is recyclable. It may be heavily contaminated or otherwise unusable)
parametr parameter (1. A quantity in an equation which must be specified beside the independent variables to obtain the solution for the dependent variables. 2. A quantity which is constant under a given set of conditions, but may be different under other conditions)
parametr celkový total parameter (The sum of parameters that must be taken into account when assessing water quality - organoleptic factors, physico-chemical factors, toxic substances, microbiological parameters)
parametr ekologický ecological parameter (A variable, measurable property whose value is a determinant of the characteristics of an ecosystem)
parametr meteorologický meteorological parameter (Variables, such as pressure, temperature, wind strength, humidity, etc. from which conclusions as to the forthcoming weather are drawn)
