Course Objective

The objective of this course is to give a detailed information regarding ion exchange based water analysis and a general information on other approaches.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Students are expected to classify the methods of water analysis depending on their origins
2   Students should be able to choose the proper method considering the sample and should be able to make modifications if necessary
3   Understanding of the ion exchange equilibrium and the alternative ion exchangers
4   The students are expected to know the ion chromatography in terms of instrumentation and theoretical base and should be able to evaluate its applications
5   The students should be able to evaluate and compare the experimental method in terms of cost and pre treatments on sample
