Course Description: An overview of the chemistry principles behind environmental regulations and requirements including advanced discussions of solvents, solutes, chromatography, and spectroscopy. Designed for those who have not had chemistry or need a refresher, this course provides the background information need for understanding chemical releases, Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDSs), lab and sample reports, and so on. How You Will Benefit Learn how chemicals are transported through the environment and where to look if a release occurs See which hazardous wastes are unstable and may potentially react with other chemicals Find out what an MSDS means in real-world terms Discover how to read and understand laboratory analytical reports and identify potential problems with the data Determine the nature and types of water and air pollutants Go beyond the basics to get a better understanding of solutions, solvents, solutes, molar concentration, and solution equilibria Learn more about chromatography and spectroscopy techniques used to analyze your data Accreditations: IHMM-2.5 CMPs; NESHTA-40 CE Hrs; NEHA-32.5CE Hrs 3.1 CEUs, 3.1 COCs, 5.01 CMs, ABIH approval #10-264 For more information on this course, contact Customer Service at 1-800-769-1199.
