RoHS Legislation, Methods of Analysis and Testing

RoHS Legislation, Methods of Analysis, and Testing (ROH101) provides an overview of the requirements of RoHS and WEEE directives. It covers the acceptable methods of analysis and a brief background of ICP-OES, GC-MS, and UV-Vis. The theory and hands-on exercise on the operation of XRF as a current popular method for RoHS screening will also be covered. At this stage, the participant can bring their own sample for testing.

Course Objectives

☑ Understand the scope and requirements of RoHS and WEEE directives
☑ Identify restricted substances and their impact on product compliance
☑ Learn acceptable analytical methods such as XRF, ICP-OES, GC-MS, and UV-Vis
☑ Apply RoHS screening techniques and interpret results for compliance verification
