Introducing students of technical profession to the basic chemical principles and laws.

Acquiring basic knowledge of fundamental chemical principles which enable better understanding of a great number of chemical processes and reaction phenomena important to the field of Environmental engineering.

Basic principles of the green chemistry.Types and characterization of organic compounds. Chemistry of organic reactions. Classification of organic pollutants. Toxicology of organic compounds. Coordination compounds. Colloidal systems in the environment. Basic principles of analytic chemistry. Qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis. Elements of the main group of the periodic table, compounds and chemical reactions: hydrogen, IA and IIA group; IIIA and IVA group; VA and VIA group; VIIA group. Elements of the sub-groups: IB (Cu, Ag, Au), IIB (Zn, Cd, Hg), VIB (Cr, Mo, W) and VIIB (Mn) and elements of the Fe triad: Fe, Co, Ni. Transformation processes and classes of the inorganic contaminants.

Lectures. Laboratory and Computing Practice. Consultations – individual and group. During semester students are required to attend lectures, computing and laboratory practice. After successfully realized examination prerequisites, students take the final exam in written form, which consists of computational and theoretical part. Computational part of the final exam can be quarterly taken through the two colloquiums.
