Course Description
Analytical Techniques in Water and Wastewater Analysis Course
This course provides participants with fundamental laboratory techniques used in wastewater analysis. Participants will become familiar with laboratory procedures for the physical, chemical, and biochemical examination of wastewater. It covers the various analytical techniques implemented to determine the organics, inorganics, and radioactive materials. It also covers the toxicity test systems, requirements, evaluation, and their implementation. In addition, the participants will learn to evaluate the data generated by these tests and thereby interpret and draw conclusions about water quality from the results of these tests. The protocols for collecting, preserving, and analyzing water samples will be presented.
Course Objectives
This is a 5 day training course for introducing the participants to simple and advanced analytical techniques used for certain important physico-chemical parameters in water and wastewater.
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of the course, the participant should have knowledge of the following,
Know lab safety
Use and understand the data train and its importance in reliable data.
Know proper units and conversions.
Explain the importance of QA/QC
Determine sampling preservation procedures.
Apply general rules for interpreting results.
Basic & advanced wastewater quality tests & equipment.
Evaluate the data generated by these tests.
Who Should Attend
