CHM 203 - Research Into Water Analysis


This course on chemical environmental analysis will provide students the opportunity to participate in the ongoing St. Clair River Water Research Project, a collaborative effort with local water treatment plants and university partners. Students will survey practices and techniques of EPA methodology. The basic concepts of Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectroscopy will be studied, along with techniques in organic compound extraction from water and other media. The course will provide practice for the actual analysis of water samples for volatile and semivolatile organic compounds (VOC’s and SVOC’s). Candidates will be chosen based on previous lab/course experience. The student’s ability to perform analysis and versatility of schedule will also be considerations.
