Methods of physical-chemical measurements course with particular emphasis on waste and soil test.
During the course, students will be acquainted with the methods of physicochemical measurements with particular emphasis on the tests
of waste, fuel from waste (RDF), soil, microbiological contamination of air in waste management plants.
As part of the laboratory, students perform determinations determining the physical properties of waste, fuel and fertilizer properties, and
examine the waste extract.
