Catalysts for the Control of Automotive Pollutants
Analytical Methodology Training Why tie up expensive equipment and personnel for training? Save money, and get better-trained op erators, by turning the job over to the Finnigan Insti tute. Basic courses for training new operators and advanced courses in specialized applications are of fered in GC/MS/DS, HPLC, GC and AA Personalized Instruction Small classes enable each student to receive per sonalized instruction. Emphasizing "hands-on" training on the latest equipment, the basic tech niques of analytical methodology are taught by skilled instructors. The participant learns sample handling, instrument operation, and data analysis. Facilities In addition to classrooms and a large library and audio-visual area, there are three separate labora t o r i e s — G C / M S , HPLC/GC and AA — c o n t a i n i n g some $800,000 worth of the most modern analytical instruments. There is also a large wet chemistry lab oratory for sample workup of both organic and inor ganic compounds. Courses Offered Each five-day basic training course is taught by experts in that particular analytical field. The follow ing courses are now offered: GC/MS/DS — June 12 — June 16, July 24 — July 28, Aug. 28 — Sept. 1, Sept. 11 — Sept. 15. Basic Chromatography (HPLC & GC) — July 17 — July 2 1 , Aug. 14 — Aug. 18, Sept. 11 —Sept. 15. Atomic Absorption — July 10 — July 14, Aug. 7 — Aug. 11, Sept. 18 — Sept. 22. Advanced courses in specialized applications are offered in the following areas: Forensic and Clinical Toxicology, Race Horse Testing, Analysis of Or ganic Compounds in water, Organic Compound Derivatization techniques, Organic Mass Spectral Interpretation.

Advances in Chemistry Series No. 143 James E. McEvoy, Editor A symposium sponsored by the Division of Indus trial and Engineering Chemistry and co-sponsored by the Board-Council Committee on Chemistry and Public Affairs, the Division of Environmental Chem istry, the Division of Fuel Chemistry, and the Divi sion of Petroleum Chemistry of the American Chemical Society. An up-to-date status report on the latest research by auto makers, catalyst companies, universities, and chemical and petroleum companies on all aspects of catalytic conversion to reduce automotive emissions. The scope of coverage in this timely volume makes it an ideal reference text on analytical methods, mech anisms of catalytic removal, and catalysts themselves. Specific topics examined in fourteen papers include: • thermocatalytic detection of Ν Ο „ and factors affecting catalyst activity • t h e r m o d y n a m i c interaction between catalyst a n d exhaust, degradation of control catalysts, a n d oxidation of C O a n d C2H4 • resistance of catalysts to thermal deactivation, variation of selectivity, catalyst p o i s o n i n g , a n d the nature of the catalyst support. 199 pages (July 1975) $ 1 9 . 9 5 c l o t h b o u n d SIS/American Chemical Society 1155 16th St., N.W., Wash., D.C. 20036 Please send copies of No. 143 Catalysts tor the Control of Automotive Pollutants at $19.95 per book.
