The aim of the course:
Geochemical Analysis can used for coal geochemistry. Environmental interpretation can be made this analysis data.Formation circumstance of coal, maturity, Total Organic Carbon (TOC) etc. parameters available. Environmental sensitive elements can be determined in coal.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : basic information about coal, source of coal and transform process of organic matter to coal.2,31
PO - 2 : experience about sample collection and preparation. 1,21
PO - 3 : obtain and interpret geologic and geochemical data that are necessary for undersand coal formation environment. 1,23
PO - 4 : environment consciousness with interpret inorganic analysis data. 1,2,8,91
PO - 5 : decide the necessary data and interpret these data for resolving a problem. 1,2,121
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
