Training Outline

Understanding how matter behaves is key to solving real-world challenges in water treatment. This course introduces the basics of chemistry, including atoms, molecules, and ions, and teaches operators how to balance equations, use concentration units, and calculate dilutions. You'll also learn how to interpret the periodic table and work with density measurements in daily operations.
