Employees of the Institute of General and Ecological Chemistry conduct didactic classes in general and inorganic chemistry as well as chemical technology within the framework of all five study programs existing at the Faculty of Chemistry: chemistry, chemical technology, environmental protection, materials engineering, and papermaking and printing.
In recent years, curricula have been developed and laboratories have been organized for many new subjects related to environmental protection: soil pollution and protection, aquatic and atmospheric environments, fundamentals of geology and mineralogy, waste management, bioinorganic chemistry, sorption and catalysis in environmental protection, design of water and sewage systems, chromatographic analysis, environmental monitoring, trace analysis, diffraction analytical methods, application of computer graphics for imaging the state of the environment.
Approximately sixty master's and engineering theses are carried out annually in the Institute's laboratories. These works concern issues related to environmental protection technologies, adsorption and catalysis, chemical analysis, water treatment and wastewater purification technologies, electrochemistry, thermal waste utilization, and structural and applied X-ray diffraction.
