Quality Assurance for Chemistry and Environmental Science (eBook, PDF)

Metrology from pH Measurement to Nuclear Waste Disposal

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Metrology and its applications e.g. in chemical or food analysis or in environmental monitoring are entering our daily life. This book provides a basic overview over the relevant metrological concepts like traceability, ISO uncertainties or cause-and-effect diagrams. The applications described in great detail range from progression-of-error type evaluation of the measurement uncertainty budget to complex applications like pH measurement or speciation calculations for aqueous solutions. The consequences of a measurement uncertainty concept for chemical data are outlined for geochemical modeling applied to transport in the subsurface and to nuclear waste disposal. Special sections deal with the deficits of existing thermodynamic data for these applications and with the current position of chemical metrology in respect to other quality assurance measures, e.g. ISO 900x, GLP, European and U.S.-American standards.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The main objective of the book is to give the reader an overview of relevant metrological concepts ... in the field of the environment and geochemistry. ... The book covers interesting and less-common aspects of metrology in environmental chemistry and geochemical modeling. ... It can be recommended for post-graduate students and scientists in the field of environmental science." (Jürgen W. Einax, Accreditation and Quality Assurance, Vol. 13, 2008)
