- This included obtaining the highest Reactor Design mark during the Individual Design Project (92%) and one of only two distinctions in the final year project/thesis. The thesis was titled ‘Modeling and Optimization of Batch Processes using Mixed Integer Linear Programming Problem Solutions’. This included modeling a sample batch plant using GAMS software, programming several optimization scenarios and providing solutions.

Personal Introduction
# AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY AND EXPERIENCE:
* FOSTER WHEELER SA – MIDRAND
* PROCESS ENGINEER ON SASOL WAX EXPANSION PROJECT – SASOLBURG (SEPTEMBER 2008 – JANUARY 2009)
* Process Engineer in charge of the evaluation of the Caustic Wash System.
• Due to a planned expansion of the critical units, all auxiliary systems had to be evaluated for capacity availability and I was tasked with evaluating this system.
• Because no concrete design basis existed as yet for the expansion, the evaluation process included proposing several design bases within which the current system could still function reliably, whilst constantly liaising with the main unit engineers and the client to revise as needed
• Due to the age of the plant, very little system information was available on record, thus this called for an extensive survey of the system on site e.g. walking the lines, surveying the current control system from control equipment mounted on equipment, gauges and control room information. This was done in conjunction with the Caustic Unit’s operations team.
• Performing rating calculations on the system including hydraulic checks including using a Fathom model, whilst collecting information to firstly verify the field collected information, after which the new design and operating scenarios could be evaluated
• Producing system information and documentation to be used as the official unit information for this project and any work to be done on the unit in the future, including PFDs, MFDs, DPDTs, Materials diagram, Mass Balances, Control hilosophy and Design Basis documents
• Writing up the report to present the findings, detailing the capabilities of the existing system, as well as proposals for up-scaling e.g. possibly new units, where bottle-necks were foreseen
• Also involved in equipment design on other units e.g. heat exchanger design for the main units
* GASEOUS UTILITIES EARLY ENGAGEMENT STUDIES – SASOL SECUNDA GROWTH PROJECT (MAY 2008 – AUGUST 2008)
* Due to an on-going expansion, new units had to be integrated into existing systems and I was tasked with evaluating the integration of the 16th Oxygen Train products
• Because of the age of the plant, very little coherent documentation was available; therefore the first task was compiling one comprehensive set of documentation on which any work would be based. This comprised of, collecting the disparate pieces of information and filling in the gaps with site walks and liaising with operations. This being a labour intensive task, three fulltime and one part-time process engineers from the Glasgow office, were made available to me to lead
• The sizing and design of new cross-factory headers for the integration of the 16th Oxygen train products, namely, oxygen, nitrogen, instrument air and process air. This included building a hydraulic model (Fathom) and economic analyses of possible options in terms of size and materials to be used versus current and future projected capacity needs
• Producing process documentation such as PFDs, MFDs, DPDTs, Material Diagrams, Operating Philosophy, Design Basis, Battery Limit Lists including the line lists, equipment list, and initial instrument list
• Process control for the new headers and investigating integration into current control system
• Producing weekly progress reports and revising and updating the project plan in consultation with the Project Engineer of the project
• Writing up the final report, putting forward the proposed new header design, costing and capacity
