Case Study
Multi Phase Gasifier Redesign and Optimization
Andy emerged as a key contributor within an international team of subject matter experts.
Andy assumed a pivotal role in resolving a highly visible critical infrastructure project plagued by multiple catastrophic failure modes including:
Mechanical stress failure
Stress corrosion cracking
Eutectic attack
Ratcheting
Differential thermal elongation
Excessive soot production and accumulation
High-temperature exposure beyond alloy melting points.
Cooling water system inefficiency
Pressure boundary rupture
By employing exceptional critical thinking, creative problem-solving skills, and a profound comprehension of the intricate relationships between diverse interdisciplinary concepts and challenges, Andy emerged as a key contributor within an international team of subject matter experts.
His efforts led to the successful redesign of the device, ultimately bringing the entire project back online. As a result, the redesigned device now consistently exceeds the original contract runtime by fivefold without experiencing any failures. Consequently, it has been removed from the critical equipment watch list for the entire plant.
Andy's unparalleled expertise and leadership proved to be instrumental in the successful resolution of this complex problem. Through diligent efforts, the project was completed on time and within budget, and the clients were extremely satisfied with the outcome.
For us, engineering is more than just a set of tools; it's a means to solve problems and instill confidence. At our core, we excel as problem solvers, leveraging engineering to enhance success and achieve superior functional performance in our projects.
A deep understanding of engineering principles and their application across diverse systems is integral to the value we bring to every endeavor. However, our expertise and unique skill sets in identifying complex relationships and solving complex problems are broadly applicable and go well beyond mechanical projects.
