This 2-hour online course is based largely upon the US Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Manual EM 1110-1-4012 Precipitation/Coagulation/Flocculation. This course is the first in a series that addresses P/C/F system design and it is a prerequisite to Precipitaion/Coagulation/ Flocculation Course 2.

The scope of this first course includes the theory of chemical precipitation, the fundamentals of hydroxide precipitation, the fundamentals of sulfide precipitation, the fundamentals of carbonate precipitation, and the fundamentals of xanthate precipitation.

There will be a multiple-choice quiz at the end of this course.
