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.
Provide process engineering design assistance to select and design a VOC combustion system at a crude oil pipeline facility truck loading station.
Perform site inspections, calculations, and process modeling to evaluate multiple cold ammonia storage facility flare systems, estimate releases, and provide improvement recommendations.
Develop process design information needed to assist a polyurethane manufacturer in switching over an existing process from using water to using a hydrocarbon based material as the foam 'blowing agent'.
Provide process engineering services to evaluate an existing inadequate dust collection system and design a new system.
Perform a screening study to identify the most suitable technology for the drying of liquid caprolactam feedstock material.
Provide process engineering support throughout detail engineering for the design, procurement, and construction of a specialty polymer pilot-plant.
Provide process engineering support to evaluate, debottleneck, and optimize the batch production of a specialty polymer product.
Develop a preliminary process design and cost estimate for consolidating several pigment manufacturing processes into one location.
Evaluate the existing controls on a chlor-alkali hydrogen system at a plastics manufacturing facility and seek to identify improvement opportunities.
Perform a high level process alternatives evaluation for options related to the treatment of wastewater at an aircraft painting facility.
Develop a conceptual process design and cost estimate for the pyrolysis gas recovery system portion of a waste tire recycling plant.
Provide process engineering assistance to troubleshoot a scaled up process for the production of a new batch polymer.
Provide an independent process engineering review of information related to a new high performance polymer production project.
Provide process engineering support to a detail design group working on the design of a new tire manufacturing facility by reviewing and validating the process utilities for the plant.
Perform a relief device documentation audit of a chemical production facility.
