Water Analysis Seminar Series

Today, analytical chemists are faced with a multitude of issues surrounding water quality—Federal, state, and local regulations regarding contaminants such as disinfection by products (DBP’s) demand analytical methods that are both sensitive and robust for compliance monitoring. Recent shortages have placed increased demands on our use and reuse of water. Adding to this complexity, emerging new contaminants, including pharmaceutical compounds, personal care products (PPCP’s), endocrine disruptors, and perfluorinated organic compounds make water quality analysis a continual challenge. Dionex would like to help you face this challenge with confidence in your analytical methods.

Dionex developed ion chromatography, and first pioneered the suppression technology that made IC valuable for ion analysis in water. But we didn’t stop there, we kept improving our technology to become the world leaders in IC by creating Reagent Free Ion Chromatography (RFIC®). Today, no company matches our skill in inorganic and organic contaminant analysis.  When you want to be sure what’s in your water, Dionex is here to help.

What will you learn?

Regulatory expertise
A review of US EPA methods for water analysis developed by Dionex, including: 

  • New methods for perchlorate and bromate determination
  • Haloacetic acids and bromate analysis by direct injection without sample preparation under development with the US EPA
  • Review of applications for primary and secondary contaminants

Emerging contaminants:

  • Solutions for analysis of pharmaceuticals, personal care products (PPCP’s) and perfluorinated organic compounds in water

New innovations you can use:

  • Reagent-Free IC (RFIC™) systems with Eluent Regeneration (RFIC-ER): Learn about the technology for drinking water analysis
  • IC and LC MS/MS applications 
  • Rapid Separation LC (RSLC) for environmental contaminants

Practical applications made easy
We will show new technologies for water analysis on a variety of matrices; including drinking, mineral-, waste-, high-purity (trace analysis) and process waters. We will discuss new strategies for solid phase extraction (SPE) online. 

  • Online SPE
  • 2-D IC with built-in matrix elimination and confirmation
  • Using AutoPrep® for automatic calibration


Attendees will Receive:

  • Printed booklet of the presentations
  • Course completion certificate
