Currently Showing: All Projects

Provide process engineering services to assist in the evaluation of potential materials of construction (MOC) for a new extraction tank to replace the original Hastelloy C-22 tank for a paint and pigments company.
Evaluate a new batch reactor system from a technical and safety standpoint and to provide recommendations for improved operation for the destruction of per-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) wastes for a hazardous waste management company.
Provide process engineering services to a process equipment fabrication company to assist in the design of a portable system to be used to attach to natural gas pipeline equipment (e.g., compressors, pig launcher/receivers, etc.) and/or pipeline segments to depressurize (blowdown) that equipment, capture and store the natural gas, and then re-compress and return the natural gas to the equipment or pipeline segment.
Prepare consecutive FEL-1/2/3 process design information for a new dual train incineration system for a hazardous waste incineration company in Southeast Asia.
Provide process engineering services to assist a specialty additives client in improving their WWTS operations for the removal of metals.
Perform an FEL-0 design of a pilot scale process to electro-chemically dissolve steel slag and produce calcium and magnesium hydroxide as part of a larger carbon sequestration process, as well as evaluate an additional downstream metals recovery process for a startup technology development company.
Develop an issued for design (IFD) process information package to support the safe installation of a new hydrogenation skid for a contract manufacturing/process development/custom fabrication firm.
Perform a plant-wide technical evaluation of existing metal dust ventilation/collection systems and pressure relief panels/rupture disks at an automotive components manufacturing plant to prevent deflagrations and explosions.
Perform a front-end engineering and design (FEED) study for the expansion/debottlenecking of a specialty fiber dope preparation area for a major fiber spinning lines at a specialty fibers US manufacturing facility.

Perform a technical evaluation of existing processes and WWTS to identify treatment technologies that would meet the goals of the plant to avoid metal limit excursions at a polymers specialty additives production facility.
Perform an analysis of CDU equipment, prepare a plan to return it to operation, and to oversee the execution of upgrades from a process engineering perspective, in support of starting up a mothballed condensate splitter facility for an investment hedge fund client.  
Assist a major US defense contractor in submitting a proposal to the US Government for the management and operation (M&O) of a US Army ammunition plant.
Analyze and determine the root cause of issues that damaged a Urea Reactor at a plant site that produces agricultural, industrial, and animal feed chemicals.
Provide on-site process engineering support to a US chemicals manufacture at multiple different plant sites to support a wide variety of projects, products, and facility improvement initiatives.
Assist an engineering company client with a comprehensive utilities study of a National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) production facility that included potable water, chilled water, cooling tower water, demineralized water, steam and condensate, natural gas, argon, nitrogen, hydrogen, compressed air, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer were studied.
Develop a dynamic simulation of a batch flash stripping operation (stripping vessel including the vessel jacket and overhead condenser) to understand the required stripping time, equipment limitations, and to inform the selection of heat transfer equipment and heat transfer fluids for a silicone polymers and lubricants manufacturer.  
Perform an independent design review of a Distillation and Dehydration Unit process design package (PDP) developed by others.
