Plant Performance Testing

Are you looking for strategies for testing the performance of your plant against design and operational performance guarantees?

To undertake acceptance and diagnostic testing for our customers we have developed specialist skills for pressure, temperature and flow measurements of air, water, steam and dust laden gases and for the analysis of collected particulate and gaseous samples.

We also develop specialist test techniques and equipment to meet specific customer requirements.

Our customers are in the following energy intensive industries:

• power generation
• cement
• mineral processing
• pulp & paper
• dairy
• general manufacturing 

We provide each customer with the best solution by:

• using our detailed knowledge of numerous sampling and analysis test codes and standards

and by:

• using our considerable knowledge of the various processes involved including:
  
  • boilers, combustion and gasification systems
  • calciners and rotary kilns
  • mills, concentrators, separators and classifiers
  • dust collection equipment - electrostatic precipitators, bag filters, scrubbers, hot gas filtration equipment, multiple cyclones, cyclonic separators, char collectors and ceramic filters
  • gaseous and particulate emissions from all types of process stacks
  • large pumps and fans
  • heat exchangers - condensers, LP and HP steam/water heaters and air heaters (rotary regenerative and tubular)
  • dust and ash disposal systems
  • steam and gas turbine/generators

Our customers have enjoyed benefits including:

• improved plant performance
• reduced costs of operating
• conformance to regulatory standards

Our process & environmental engineers, officers, scientists are experienced in working in demanding environments and meeting the challenges often encountered in plant testing (i.e. plant stability, difficult sampling locations and access, hot, wet, cold, noisy and dusty environments, etc.) Our quality management an assurance system is certified by NATA (National Association of Testing Authorities) as meeting the requirements of ISO 9001. We have been accreditied by NATA for a comprehensive list of gaseous and particulate emissions sampling and analysis activities to ISO/IEC 17025.
