Course Description

Gas Chromatography plays a major role in real time quality data provision. This course enhances the student with knowledge of the techniques of Gas Chromatography including details of the separation process, general GC procedures, temperature programming, troubleshooting, instrumentation, quantification and method development.

Course Objectives

  • Building extensive understanding and excellent skills in gas chromatography technology and associated techniques used
  • Operating the Gas Chromatography equipment in the safest and best practical way
  • Being familiar with sampling and sample handling process, the effect of sampling error on overall precision, sample contamination and prevention, disposal of completed sample and reporting of data and sample accountability
  • Understanding the process of managing troubleshooting and identifying the source of the problem and the scientific method of eliminating the problem from reoccurring
  • Being able to develop new methods and procedures development for new test and using it in research and development projects
  • Performing troubleshooting and applications
