Introduction: Gas chromatographic technique offers unchallenged resolving power for countless, volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds parallel to the high sensitivity and selectivity with many of the detector systems, giving irreplaceable analytical tool in quality control of petroleum products. This technique is very accurate and precise even when used for the determination of ultra trace concentration of toxic chemical pollutants in the Environment.
Programme description: Approach to the modern analytical chromatographic techniques including gas chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography sample preparation, maintenance of the actually being in use gas chromatographic equipment, result and data calculation, data statistical evaluation. Scientific basis of chromatographic techniques for the petroleum products quality control and for the determination of chemical pollutants in the environment. Sample pre-treatment and clean-up for chromatographic analysis. Solid Phase Extraction and Semipermeable membranes for preconcentration of petroleum pollutants in water. The courses covers the basic gas and high performance liquid chromatography theory with explanation as to how each component of the system functions. The courses also cover the hardware maintenance, column care and assist the operator in developing troubleshooting skills.
Training effect – skills and competence: The laboratory should help the student develop a broad array of basic skills and tools of modern chromatographic methods. Experience from hands-on laboratory exercises in sample preparation and clean-up for chromatographic analysis. Understanding of gas and liquid chromatography instrumentation, manual instrument operation, determination of trace organic pollutants in the Environment samples. Determination of aromatic organic compounds in petroleum products. Skills in quality assurance quality control (QA/QC) in instrumental analytical chemistry.
The lecturer informs about requirements, weight of assessment components, recommended literature, schedule of tests or other organizational issue at the first meeting.
