Analysis of water and soil pollutions 02-AZWGL

Introduction to the problems related with chemical analysis of environmental samples (water, waste water, soil). Development of the ability to carry out quantitative routine analyses at an accredited laboratory, to choose best practical analytical methods for a given sample, to interpret the analytical results obtained and write reports in groups of 2-3 students. On completion of the lecture, seminar and laboratory classes in the chemistry of the environment the students should: know and understand the analytical methods of micro- and macro-components occurring in environmental matrices, be able to use analytical apparatuses (basic and special use), be able to choose the optimum analytical technique for a given analytical problem, be able to perform correct interpretation of the results taking into regard the legal and toxicological aspects and give practical recommendations taking into account the processes of renewal, water treatment, disinfection, recultivation, accumulation and biomagnification.
