PROCESS ENGINEERING PROJECTS

Currently Showing: All Projects

Cost savings project to develop a mass and energy balance of a recycle system on an SO2 scrubbing unit that would return expensive unreacted di-basic acid additive to the system.
Perform a feasibility study by creating specific process simulation cases followed by development of a rough cost estimate of a new technology (liquid air energy storage system) when incorporated into a commercial scale electric power generation plant.
Provide process simulation expertise to an EPC firm to help solve a non-convergent power generation cooling loop model.
Prepare design guideline packages for a power industry technology company for different flue gas mercury (Hg) removal processes that identified the necessary equipment, technical specifications, data sheets, and equipment sizing information need to accurately explain each process.
Subcontracted process engineering support on a new CO2CO2 capture pilot plant project encompassing design, procurement, installation, and startup activities. Read USA Today article on this project and a subsequent News Article discussing the plant operation results.
Visit a jet fuel additive storage terminal and perform process troubleshooting and an alternatives evaluation for their nitrogen gas tank blanketing systems.
Work with both a natural gas producer and an ammonia technology provider to develop a preliminary process design package and cost estimate for a small scale ammonia process using natural gas as a feedstock.
Provide process engineering and CAD technician services to generate 'as-built' drawings for a new compressed hydrogen gas storage and truck loading system.
Provide preliminary gas pipeline hydraulic sizing.
Perform relief device sizing for a fertilizer terminal facility.
Perform relief device sizing calculations for a fertilizer terminal facility.
Perform a hydraulics evaluation, solicit flare vendor bids, and make recommendations regarding an existing flare system at a pipeline station.
Provide assistance in preparing a construction bid package for a project to modify portions of an existing pipeline terminal facility.
Provide consulting regarding spill containment issues and process engineering support for a pipeline operator's truck loading station expansion.
Review and comment on potential flare siting locations at a gas pipeline terminal facility.
Perform design calculations to determine if an existing brine degasifier was large enough to accommodate additional loading from a maintenance blowdown system.
Perform a brief evaluation and recommend appropriate steps needed to properly tie in thermal relief devices into an existing maintenance flare system at a pipeline terminal facility.
Perform Process Hazards Assessments (PHAs) and adequately document findings at multiple refined product pipeline terminals throughout the U.S.
Evaluate the pressure relief and flare systems, as well as assess any process safety concerns at a pipeline pump station.
Perform an audit of the process safety information (PSI) at several of the storage terminals to assess the level of compliance of these sites with the PSI requirements of OSHA’s PSM regulation, 29 CFR 1910.119, and the accident prevention Program Level 3 requirements of EPA’s RMP regulation, 40 CFR 68. Subsequently provide process safety management (PSM) compliance support to address deficiencies found in the process safety information for the various sites.
Heat transfer study to determine NaOH and NaHS storage tank heating requirements in advance of purchasing a package boiler unit.
Evaluate an existing but non-commissioned vapor recovery unit for both operability and safety issues at a crude oil terminal facility.
Evaluate available alternatives for replacing an existing air-cooled ammonia condenser at a cryogenic storage terminal that would allow for future increased cooling demands.
Engineering support for various operations associated with anhydrous ammonia (NH3NH3) pipeline systems which include transport lines, booster stations, hot and cold (cryogenic) storage facilities and terminal flare systems.
