Preliminary engineering support of a first-of-its-kind ag-based pulping and thermoforming facility, including heat & material balance development and other key activities.
New kraft liner machine and building, OCC facility, highly modified fiberline, boiler natural gas conversion, and electrical infrastructure additions to accommodate virgin and recycled fiber linerboard production.
FEL1 and detailed design to double the capacity of an existing ag-pulp feedstock processing line, including modifications to material handling, hammer mill, pneumatic transport, and conveying systems.
This effort included the front-end engineering, detailed design, and construction oversight over the complete winder replacement of the paper machine.
FEL1 and capital cost estimate development for the addition of a hydrocyclone cleaner to protect refiners from contaminants at an existing 30TPD ag-based pulping line.
FEL2 front-end engineering design to evaluate a deficient vacuum seal water cooling loop at an existing molded fiber facility and replace an undersized cooling tower and supply pumps.
This effort included the completion of the conceptual design (FEL2) phase for a $5 million USD water sustainability program for an existing Fiber Optics facility with a goal to reduce water consumption at the site by 80%.
FEED Package included developing a TIC estimate to replace existing utility boilers at a batch process plant, including evaluating boiler technology, layout and NFPA code for an existing building.
FEL1 engineering design for a novel critical elements recovery facility funded by ARPA-e to process 1 ktpd of ultramafic tailings, integrating direct air capture of CO2 for carbon sequestration and electrolytic production of sulfuric acid.
This scope consisted of multiple layers of support for the re-development of a 48 MW biomass-fired power plant that had been moth-balled in the middle of the initial construction process. As the project found new life...
