based on laboratory test runs from ARC tests; demo commercial software at the
DIERSannual meeting in Philadelphia, PA.; worked with ProII to simulate the
Debutanizer and Crude Columns at Sunoco Refinery in Philadelphia, PA.; Size relief valves
for reactive and non-reactive systems; serve as client contact and technical
leadat Equistar (Channelview, TX)-Alkylation Unit; interview, screen and train
entry-level and new employees
SchmArt Engineering & Consulting, Inc
., Beaumont, Texas
Lead Engineer
01/1999
to 01/2000
Serve as client contact and technical lead for jobs at Huntsman (Port Arthur,

DuPont(Victoria, TX)-Adipic Acid Unit, Huntsman (Austin, TX)-Ethylene Oxide Unit;
Track job progression in Microsoft Project 98; attended DIERS 4-day seminar
sponsoredby AIChE to learn relief sizing technology for two-phase and runaway reactions
in Houston, TX.; developed a demo version of a computer program to size relief
valves (and check for) for two-phase flow in MS Excel and Access; conducted tests
onthe demo and compared results to benchmarked conclusions; installed demo
programinto commercial software; sized relief valves for reactive systems at Cytec
(50/50 acrylonitrile - amberlite mixture); learned to mitigate emergency relief
device problems based on cost, time and material; attended seminar provided by Fauske
and Assoc. to learn how to conduct ARC test for reactive systems (this test
determines if the reaction is foamy, models self heat rate, pressure & temperature
rise.); demo commercial software at the CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety).
San Antonio, TX.; demo commercial software at the DIERS annual meeting in Las
Vegas, Nevada.; demo commercial software to the CPI (Chemical Process Industry): 69
demos in 16 US states.

Introduced to API 520, 521, NFPA 30, ASHRAE, API 2000; learned to size
emergencyrelief systems based on API 520, 521; sized relief devices (relief valves and
rupture disks); learned to size piping systems for emergency relief devices;
learned to conduct HAZOPs on a system basis; worked with ProII to gather physical
property data for relief valve calculations; worked with ProII to simulate the Light
olefins Unit at Huntsman (PA TX); worked with Huntsman staff to size new relief

Ameripol Synpol, formerly BFGoodrich, Port Neches, Texas
Internship
05/1995
to 12/1995
Learned to read P&IDs; developed a rotating equipment database to maintain
service records (MS Access); learned the Styrene-Butadiene Rubber process (Blend,
Coagulation and Bale Areas); learned Statistical Process Control (SPC); used the SPC
skills to track Butadiene rates from Huntsman to Ameripol Synpol. (Results from
this study revealed faulty flow meters. Huntsman overcharged for their product
dueto a defective flow meter. This 4 week study will save Ameripol $10,000 per
month); introduced to ISO 9000 and how it applied to Ameripol Synpol s product
quality; introduced to OSHA 1910 (Mechanical Integrity only); revised Welding
procedures as a result of OSHA 1910.
