Ecology and Environmental Chemistry

Students from the Departments of Civil Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Design and Production Engineering attend the Interdepartmental Laboratory of Chemistry, Electrochemistry and Chemical Technology (Ancient Olive Grove Campus, Building B, 2nd floor, room B215). The laboratory serves the experimental issues of courses: “Ecology and Environmental Chemistry”, “Electrotechnical Materials” and “Chemistry”.

Students attending the course “Ecology and Environmental Chemistry” become familiar with devices aimed at determining physical and chemical parameters of water (hardness, chloride content, conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen) and of liquid municipal and industrial waste (Chemical Oxygen Demand, Biochemical Oxygen Demand, microbial load, solids, turbidity), water desalination by reverse osmosis, corrosion and protection of metals and structural steel, as well as statistical analysis of measurements.
