Internship Kapstone Paper, Engineering Intern with Optimization and Control June 2016 to August 2016 SCM - Condensate Polisher

Reviewed the sequential control scheme for steam condensate polishers prior to implementation.

Used latest Honeywell Experion Control Builder to review SCM and DCS block flow.

Avoided steam boiler fouling by identifying errors which would have led to failure of the system’s ability to engage in resin regeneration.

Prevented tank failure by recognizing control parameters for alarming above the accepted range. Waste Water Effluent Pump Investigation

Managed the investigation into the underperformance and reliability of a 25-50 million gal/day capacity waste water removal system whose operational value is $600,000 to $800,000 per day.

Analyzed flowrates, developed pump curves, and built models representing flow based on differential pressure across valves.

Provided recommendations for replacement check-valves resilient to clogging and water hammering.

Identified error in pump design for application and developed a contingency plan for future pump failure.

Steam Condensate Return Team

Utilized VBA with CTCalcs/Excel to produce equations yielding recovery rates of condensate for use in ParcView by operators.

Delivered field checklists and training modules for operational personnel to monitor health of steam and condensate systems.

Diminished steam usage by locating improper valve position of condensate totaling $68,000/yr savings.

Minimized losses by optimizing flow though condensate conductivity probe line for resulting in

$10,000/yr savings.
