Key words
Objectives
Obtaining insight into good laboratory practice, quality care and quality
guardsystems.
Basic knowledge is provided concerning special techniques as sampling,
analysis of water, soil, solid waste, sludge, air in working atmospheres,
emission and immission.
Topics
Theory:
GLP
Preparation of the analysis: sampling, conservation, destruction of samples
Chemical analytical procedures:
water: composition and analysis
soil and sludge; inorganic and organic contaminants and analysis.
air: laboratory procedures for examination of workshops, continuous
monitoring.
Practical exercises:
Water: C.O.D, analysis of chlorides, nitrates, nitrites, ammonia, acid
destruction, analysis by means of AAS
Soil and sludge: analysis of heavy metals via AAS
Air: determination of nitrogen oxides in air samples
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of analytical chemistry related to environmental issues.

Assessment
Theoretical partim: combination of written and oral examination
Practical exercises: permanent evaluation
However, if a student gains a score of 7 or less on 20 on one of the different courses (parts of training items), he proves that his skill for certain subcompetencies is insufficient. Consequently, one can turn from the arithmetical calculation of the final assignment of quotas of a training item and the new marks can be awarded on consensus. Of course the examiners can judge that the arithmetic regulations mentioned in the study index card can also be used for 7 or less. For each deviation a detailed motivation ought to be drawn up. In that case one should point out that the skill for this subcompetency is proven to be insufficient, if the student didn’t pass the partim that is considered to be important for certain subcompetencies.
