Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Goals: The students know the most important substances in water, they are familiar with speciation calculations and are capable to perform them independently, in particular that of carbonate. They know the environmentally most important redox systems and they can create EH-pH charts. They qualitatively and quantitatively understand the mechanisms of sorption and the transport of substances and can perform calculations independently.
