Enhancement Of An Undergraduate Engineering Laboratory With GC And IC

本项目旨在为土木与环境工程专业的本科生提供利用现代色谱仪器分析水中有机和无机污染物的实验室经验。所要求的设备，毛细管气相色谱仪和离子色谱仪，将使工程专业的学生有机会熟悉这些重要的仪器技术，他们可能会在他们的职业生涯中使用。该设备将在重新设计高级实验室测量必修课程中发挥关键作用。重新设计的课程将给予学生分析的实际经验，以及在饮用水处理厂的现场经验。

The objective of this project is to provide undergraduate civil and environmental engineering majors laboratory experience analyzing organic and inorganic pollutants in water utilizing modern chromatographic instrumentation. The requested equipment, a capillary gas chromatograph and an ion chromatograph, will give engineering students the opportunity to become familiar with these important instrumental techniques, which they are likely to use in their professional careers. The equipment will play a key role in redesigning a required senior level laboratory survey course. The redesigned course will give students hands on experience in analysis in addition to in-plant experience in a drinking water treatment plant.
