Full process pre / commissioning of a steam stripper system (strips out dissolved benzene by contacting the water with live steam in a vertical packed tower). This involved the commissioning of the benzene removal package, steam scrubber column and associated pipework & instrumentation. Also carried out was the pre-commissioning and commissioning of pump and motor sets.

Installation of client supplied coarse seawater filter upgrade. Water engineer oversaw and assisted with the installation of coarse filter Internals into existing vessel, along with install of vessel extension and of vessel cover with drive assembly.

Healthcare rotations. Engineer oversaw operation of SRP Package, providing support to client for routine operation of SRP and Deaeration Systems. Undertook assessment of Media Filter Performance to identify optimum polyelectrolyte dosing to ensure correct quality feed water for SRP membranes and attempt to improve downstream cartridge filter run time. Undertook CIP procedure as required for SRP Membranes, to ensure good recovery to baseline. Reviewed control logic for Media Filters to ensure correct backwash sequencing and operation with variable plant flows depending upon number of SRP Trains online. Provided input for control logic commissioning to ensure integrity of filter and membrane systems.

Commissioning of DO Tower (dissolved oxygen), Train B & Fine Filters. This involved leak test of DA and vacuum pump runs together with completion of positive pressure test and vac test. MMF commissioning and testing completed, followed by first fill of DO tower, MMF manual backwashing and DO tower testing.
