السعر: 300 دينار كويتي

    تفاصيل الدورة

    The main aim of the course is to introduce the participants to an overview of trace metal (Cu, Ni, Co and Fe) measurements using adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry (Ad-CSV) and Flow Injection Analyzer (FIA). The importance of speciation measurements, the techniques of Ad-CSV (Metrohm 797 VA Computrace) and FIA (Waterville analytical) will be discussed. Clean sampling, acid washing methods, associated laboratory settings and measurements including blanks, standards and reagents, quality control and quality assurance measures and results interpretation will be introduced.

    Objectives

    At the end of the course, participants will be able to:

    • Obtain general understanding of the main aspects and the importance of trace metal measurement using Ad-CSV & FIA
    • Understand the instrument’s main concept and parts (electro-chemistry theory)
    • Run and use the Ad-CSV and FIA independently
    • Become aware of samples, standards, reagents preparation, acid cleaning and precautions to work in trace metal free environment
    • Gain knowledge in sample collection for trace metal samples using Go flow sampling bottles and samples filtration and preservation
    • Understand the software of the Ad-CSV and FIA instruments handling and data analysis
    • Obtain experience and understand the quality control and quality assurance measurements associated with the Ad-CSV and FIA techniques

    Participants

    Scientists and laboratory technicians involved in marine chemistry and biology; staff from Ministry of Electricity and Water, Ministry of Public Works and EPA in Kuwait and the Gulf region responsible for water quality analysis and assessment; scientists and researchers from universities, institutes and agencies in the Gulf region interested in marine chemistry, in particular, the new technique measuring trace metals.

    Pre-requisites

    Experience in chemistry laboratories; B.Sc. and diploma in chemistry, marine science, biology, environmental sciences; Interest in marine analytical chemistry measurements
