Summary

The course clarifies the role of microorganisms in the live natural system and their roles in the different methods of processing waste from mining and other industries.
Students gain information on the morphology and physiology of acellular organisms and basic groups of microorganisms, their status in the nature as well as on the mutual relations of microbial populations, including an overview of basic pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganism strains.
Some lectures will be dedicated to significant microorganism strains and their practical uses in modern biotechnologies related to waste management and their roles in forming and protecting the environment.
