I am chemical engineer with experience in industrial water treatment techniques and processes. My responsibilities have varied from operations process technical support, process optimisation and troubleshooting, commissioning, detail engineering design, project management, technical marketing, research and development and now most recently process concept development and process design. I have gained applied knowledge in industrial water treatment in industry sectors including mining & minerals processing, steel processing, power generation, petrochemical and food & beverage. Applications from which I have gained my experience include industrial water and effluent treatment, process optimisation, process modernisation, waste minimisation, water re-use and resource recovery.In my work experience I have developed the following capabilities: • Research, development and testing of new technologies and process concepts • Data capturing through bench/pilot scale testing or monitoring full scale process plants • Data processing/analyses – receive process performance data of existing processes and benchmark current process performance • Business development – identify potential projects for new clients • Identify key problem solving opportunities for clients • Scoping and specification of engineering solutions • Develop concept engineering for new processes or upgrades to existing processes • Advance concept engineering design to detailed engineering design by applying fundamental engineering principles • Modelling engineering processes through engineering software• Report writing: Project status routine reports including schedule, budget and quality, technical technical reporting, operations support reporting • Professional communication • Budget estimation and control • Procurement and tendering• Project scheduling and control • Quality management planning and execution
