Abstract

The agricultural application of industrial wastes, alone or mixed with other waste or organic substrates, has been evaluated as a possible destination for waste generated in various industrial processes.
Since this important environmental implications, it is necessary to establish reliable analytical protocols for monitoring the deposited waste, the composites formed by mixing it with conditioner [...]

Abstract
In this book the authors present the basic concepts of classic analytical chemistry related to gravimetric and volumetric methods. The statistical treatment of analytical data is considered separately and discussed in some detail. The experiments include all information necessary for them to be carried out.
All material is devoted to a semester long course so that [...]
