(MOP) 11, and (2) a WEF video, Water Resource Recovery Facility 3D Virtual
Tour. The video, manual, and study guide should be used together for training
classes, studying for certification exams, and improving the quality of operations
within the facility or firm.
The video can be downloaded from the Internet free of charge (news.wef.org/
wef-teaches-about-operation-of-water-resource-recovery-facility-2/). It is a
10-minute, narrated educational video providing an excellent virtual tour of a typical
water resource recovery facility about wastewater treatment, water reuse, biosolids
generation, land application, energy generation, anaerobic digestion, facility infrastructure, and wastewater treatment operation. The readers should download and
view the WEF video first.
The next step for the readers is reading the official training material MOP
11, Operation of Water Resource Recovery Facilities, and learning the state-ofthe-art development in water resource recovery facility management and operation.
Finally the questions and solutions in this study guide can be used by the readers
for a comprehensive review and examination preparation. The video, training
manual MOP11, and this study guide all emphasize principles of treatment, facility
management, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance.
Specifically this study guide contains challenging questions and detailed solutions to help readers with continuing education as well as on the job demands. These
questions can be used to help develop advanced knowledge and ensure that your
water resource recovery facility is fulfilling its mission of environmental protection.
The following is this study guide’s table of contents: Chapter 1, “Introduction”;
Chapter 2, “Permit Compliance and Wastewater Treatment Systems” (20 problems
and solutions); Chapter 3, “Fundamentals of Management” (20 problems and solutions); Chapter 4, “Industrial Wastes and Pretreatment” (15 problems and solutions);
Chapter 5, “Safety” (22 problems and solutions); Chapter 6, “Management Information Systems—Reports and Records” (13 problems and solutions); Chapter 7,
“Process Instrumentation” (19 problems and solutions); Chapter 8, “Pumping of
Wastewater and Sludge” (16 problems and solutions); Chapter 9, “Chemical Storage, Handling, and Feeding” (17 problems and solutions); Chapter 10, “Electrical”
(12 problems and solutions); Chapter 11, “Utilities” (12 problems and solutions);
Chapter 12, “Maintenance” (25 problems and solutions); Chapter 13, “Odor Control” (12 problems and solutions); Chapter 14, “Integrated Process Management”
(20 problems and solutions); Chapter 15, “Outsourced Operations Services and
Public/Private Partnerships” (13 problems and solutions); Chapter 16, “Training”
(16 problems and solutions); Chapter 17, “Wastewater Sampling” (14 problems and
solutions); Chapter 18, “Preliminary Treatment” (10 problems and solutions);
Chapter 19, “Primary Treatment” (14 problems and solutions); Chapter 20, “Activated Sludge” (24 problems and solutions); Chapter 21, “Trickling Filters, RBC,
Combined Processes” (15 problems and solutions); Chapter 22, “Biological Nutrient
Removal” (20 problems and solutions); Chapter 23, “Natural Biological Processes”
(20 problems and solutions); Chapter 24, “Physical-Chemical Treatment” (16 problems and solutions); Chapter 25, “Process Performance” (12 problems and solutions); Chapter 26, “Effluent Disinfection” (15 problems and solutions); Chapter 27,
