An aim of this subject is to give students the fundamental knowledge in analytical chemistry and in types of toxic compounds that could be applied in current laboratory practices and in environment protection
Teaching methods
Lectures
Experimental work in labs
Summary
The subject deals with the fundamentals of analytical chemistry of
environmental pollutants. It provides students the fundamentals of the mostly
used classical and instrumental analytical methods including sampling and
sample handling, basic information about toxic and harmful compounds and their
occurrance in environment. The teaching programme consists of lectures and
training in
the laboratories.
