Aims
The aim of the Water Hydrochemistry and Water Analysis course is to acquaint students with:
- physical and chemical properties and composition of natural, drinking and waste water
- the kinetics of chemical processes and chemical equilibria in natural waters
- valid legislation in the field of water analysis and hydrochemistry
- methods of sampling and pre-treatment of samples
- physico-chemical water analyzes
To provide students with the theoretical basis for successful mastering of courses in chemistry and water technology in the post-graduate master study.
To familiarize them with the current information that can be used in current water analysis practice.
