Mastering Potentiometric Titration through Effective Electrode Selection and Method Optimization
Tuesday, April 30, 2024
Register
Modern titration offers a simple, yet highly accurate method to ensure the quality and safety of many products we consume daily. While not a complicated technique, there are some subtleties that can ensure your titration results are accurate. Simple electrode care and optimization of basic titration parameters are crucial to helping you obtain results you can trust.   During this webinar, Sagar Irrinki, Quality Control Manager at Coastal Gulf & International, Inc. will share how his laboratory navigates executing these tests on various types of titration applications. and how to overcome challenges with helpful titration tips. Eduardo Simoes, Product Specialist for Titration at Metrohm USA, will provide guidance for electrode selection and best practices for electrode care and maintenance. Don’t miss the live Q&A at the end to get all your questions answered by Sagar and Eduardo.    Key Learning Objectives:   Understand potentiometric electrode care and maintenance  Learn how to overcome titration challenges with useful tips Receive simple guidelines to remove doubt from titration results  Learn how to select the appropriate electrode for your titration   Who Should Attend:   Anyone who wants to learn more about electrode care and maintenance People interested in improving the consistency of their titration results Anyone who needs a refresher on titration best practices Chemists who want simple tips to improve confidence in titration analysis   Brought to you by: Speakers:     Eduardo Simoes Titration Product Specialist Metrohm USA     Sagar Irrinki Quality Control Manager Coastal Gulf & International, Inc.     Alexandra Taylor Contributing Editor C&EN Media Group

SESSION 1: Standardizing environmental microplastics measurement
Tuesday, May 7, 2024
Register
Increasing interest in microplastics in the environment has resulted in how microplastics may be regulated in this arena.  These initiatives may occur at various levels and by various organizations, from international (e.g., European Chemical Agency, ISO documents) to national and subnational (e.g., federal and state efforts in the U.S.).  They all require standardization of monitoring methods.   This presentation will provide an overview of the state of standardization, and challenges thereof, for microplastics measurement in the aquatic environment, from collection to extraction to quantification (e.g., by spectroscopic analysis).  Particular emphasis is placed on efforts within the State of California, which is the first jurisdiction to require monitoring for microplastics.   Key Learning Objectives:   Progress towards standardized methods and testing requirements  What progress has been made in the development of standardized methodologies for microplastics in North America? What are some of the key challenges that remain in the implementation of these? How might these developments impact other areas and the potential for the implementation of regulations?   Who Should Attend:   Microplastics researchers Microplastics analysts from commercial, QA, or research labs seeking to understand key challenges in Microplastics analysis. Those interested in the contamination of wastewater, seawater, freshwater, air, sediments, and food (such as fish, shellfish, crustaceans, and bottled water)   Brought to you by: Speakers:     Charles Wong Department Head, Chemistry, Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Authority     Ann Thayer Contributing Editor C&EN Media Group

Beyond Ion Exchange: Advancing Wastewater Treatment in Metal Finishing
Tuesday, May 14, 2024
Register
The metal-finishing industry faces the ongoing challenge of managing wastewater effectively, especially when treating dissolved metals such as copper and hexavalent chromium. These metals pose significant environmental risks and introduce compliance and financial challenges. Traditional ion exchange and chemical precipitation methods exhibit limitations in selectively targeting specific metals and rely on hazardous chemical handling and secondary waste product treatment.  Both methods have limited effectiveness with increased metal concentrations, competing ions' presence, and dissolved solids' overall concentration.   Join James Landon, Chief Technology Officer at ElectraMet, as he introduces an innovative solution to conventional dissolved metal approaches, employing an electrochemical process to efficiently remove or convert dissolved metals. Beyond treatment, both sustainability and operational optimization hinge on real-time data. Learn how online Process Analyzer Technology (PAT) can revolutionize wastewater management, offering precise, real-time monitoring and analysis.   Key Learning Objectives:   Understand how the innovative electrochemical process overcomes challenges in metal finishing. Learn how real-time monitoring and analysis can optimize the wastewater treatment process Learn how integrating electrochemical processes with PAT can transform wastewater into revenue   Who Should Attend:   Process Engineers looking to optimize wastewater treatment processes or who are looking to implement PAT in their metal finishing lines Sustainability and Operations Managers tasked with implementing eco-friendly practices within their organizations and overseeing the day-to-day operations of metal finishing lines Environmental Compliance Officers tasked with ensuring their facilities meet regulatory standards for wastewater Wastewater Treatment Consultants advising on wastewater management strategies   Brought to you by: Speakers:     James Landon, PhD Chief Technology Officer and Co-founder,  PowerTech Water, Inc.     Brett Lane Senior Chemist, Metrohm USA     Ann Thayer Contributing Editor C&EN Media Group
