Is there a good resource for practice questions for the process event that you could share? | We are interpreting that you are referring to questions related to the process scenario topics for the 2023 Process Control Event. The WEF Wastewater Treatment Fundamentals series are a good source to start from, particularly WWT Fundamentals III for the Membrane Bioreactor and plant instrumentation and automation questions. I’m not aware of any resources that have practice questions for the secondary clarification using state point topic but good references are in Wastewater Engineering-Treatment Disposal and Reuse text, WEF FD-8, Clarifier Design as well as in the Water Research Foundation manual, WERF/CRTC Protocols for Evaluating Secondary Clarifier Performance. The plant automation and automation questions will include reading and interpreting Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID) which are generally based on Standard ANSI/ISA-5.1-2009), Symbols and identification of instrumentation (American National Standards Institute/International Society of Automation) | 2/13/23 |
Will the multiple choice questions be available to study from the 2022 competition? | The multiple choice answers from the 2022 WEFTEC Event have just been posted on the team resource center on the Process page above under Past Event Questions and Answers section. | 3/10/23 |
