Recent accomplishment include the installation of three "scaled up" Precious Metal Thermal Treatment systems and the implementation of automated slurry milling systems to existing production mills.
•Precious Metal Thermal Treatment
-Project lead on the installation of pilot scale unit.
-Responsible for the design, construction, and budget of lab scale system. Project on time and under budget.
-Subject matter expert during the building and commissioning of production units worldwide.
•Technology transfer
-Commissioning of new plants
-Participated in transfer of new and existing technologies to a manufacturing site.
-Presenter and attendee of global process development meetings, symposium and seminars.
•Automated Slurry Batching
-Lead activity of taking an existing concept, refined engineering details, vendor tested and design confirmed.
-Subject matter expert during the commissioning and installed for the production system
•Automated Slurry Milling
-Developed, built and commissioned scalable prototype mill.
-Proved concept on numerous slurry technologies
-Developed scale up relationship to existing Production Mills.
-Production mill modified and overall concept verified.
-Batch to batch repeatability increases downstream coating efficiency which improves quality and eliminates precious metal loss.
•On-line Calciner for Catalyst Part
-Developed, built and commissioned a prototype unit.
-Unit increases through put by 10-40%
-Reduces resources required by 40%
-Total estimated potential savings of +$10^6 /year (excluding PM savings).
