Process Design
Our main role in upgrading, expanding or in the construction of a new facility is the process design itself – also know as a "basic engineering package".
This package spans from block diagram and process flow diagrams, to mass balance, process flows/chemical pipe list, detailed process description and also specification of key equipments.
Technical Assessment
We can study and report on the technological position of a given facility. From there we can point out eventual differences to state-of-the-art practices. This has helped clients identify the most promising potentials or areas of improvement.
Trouble Shooting
Sometimes a look from a fresh angle helps in identifying bottle-necks in flow or eliminating quality issues.
As the tricks-of-the-trade in biodiesel production are not (yet) text-book knowledge, more often than not we have been able to rectify long-standing issues that simply "came along with the technology".
For that Energia Tech draws from years of field experience across a wide variety of facilities, countries and climates.
Re-Engineering
For improvement on a larger scale, we are adept at engineering and carefully planning the implementation of entire up-grading projects with minimal disruption to the existing production.
The upgrade could encompass better yields, improved reaction quality, reduced consumption & cost or a wider range of acceptable inputs.
This size of investment often begins with a comparative study of the cost/revenue improvements achievable.
Training
We can train qualified staff (technicians & skilled labor levels) on-site for efficient, reliable and well-documented operations either for new facilities or within the scope of a turn-around effort.
