Introduction
This course offers no-nonsense, results-oriented training that will help you improve your bottom-line performance. Come prepared to discuss your analytical problems and challenges with expert chromatographers. By enrolling in this course, you will learn to master state-of-the-art techniques and equipment in GC with practical, hands-on experience.
In the course's five hands-on laboratory sessions, you will work on a variety of experiments, and in the process, become familiar with GC equipment by taking apart and reassembling working GCs.
You will be able to experiment with new ideas, like fast-GC or splitless injection.
Objectives
Training Methodology
The training methodology is interactive with group exercises and is suitable for all employees involved in process, maintenance and operations management. The pace and level of the training workshop is customized to the understanding of the delegates. Ongoing back-up and support is available after the training on request to the supplier, and the training course is also available for in-house presentation as well as for “Competency Transfer”.
Who Should Attend?
This course is designed for complete beginners to seasoned intermediates in gas chromatography who want practical laboratory experience. The lectures, supplemented by hands-on laboratory experiments, slides, and video tapes, provide the fundamentals needed to understand the technique and instrumentation involved in this powerful analytical tool. No previous experience in gas chromatography is required for the course. Because of the amount of lab work performed by course participants, enrollment is limited to 16.
