Objectives
The main objective is to provide a solid and broad scientifical basis (
chemical and fysico-chemical) which in practice gives access to the
application of a great variety of qualitative and quantitative analytical
methods and which allows to interpret correctly the derived special
literature. Gradually more emphasis is put on a great variety of industrial
applications (quality control, problem solving,...)
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of inorganic and organic chemistry (candidatures) and
advanced background of analytical chemistry.
Topics
Theory:
General basic electrochemical principles (mass transport, diffusion,
potentials,...)
Electrochemical methods:
- potentiometry
- electrolysis
- voltammetry and polarography
- amperometry
- coulometry
Exercises:
Advanced exercises
Applications of the different analytical techniques on several sample
matrices (food, packing, environmental issues,...)
Teaching Methods
Lectures, demonstrations, exercises, individual reports, discussion
exercises, home study
Materials used
Teacher's course, background information, scientific and technical
literature, school library materials
Study guidance
Assessment
Theoretical partim: combination of written and oral examination
Practical sessions: permanent evaluation and written examination
