Process Design, Analysis & Control
Process Design
With the application of scientific principles, engineering methods, and empirical data, Fedem Engineering innovates with customers to design and optimise their processes and systems, identify problems or opportunities, develope alternative solutions, evaluate and compare the alternatives, and select the best solution.
Using tried and tested concepts and extensive practical experience, we undertake a wide range of process engineering challenges at various phases of a project and provide innovative, cost-effective solutions.
Feasibility Study & Front-end Engineering
Feasibility study is a comprehensive analysis of the technical, economic, social and environmental aspects of a proposed project to ensure that the project is feasible, viable and sustainable before investing time, money and resources into it.
During feasibility study and Front-end engineering design (FFED) phase, we work with our customers to provide knowledge-based technical, economic and environmental evaluation of a proposed project. We eveluates the potential benefits and riskes of different alternative and develop preliminary design to provide the best, most economical process design for funding/bidding decisions, whilst ensuring the project meets applicable standards and regulations .
Our experience and services includes:
-
Process Calculations
-
Mass and Energy Balances
-
Equipment and Instrument Sizing & Rating
-
Preliminary Line Sizing
-
-
Process Flow Diagram (PFD)
-
Equipment Datasheet
-
Economic Evaluation
Detailed Design Engineering
We work with our client to translate contents of FEED into detailed drawings (e.g. P&ID), models, simulations, calculations, and documentations that describe how the plant will function, be tested and maintained; thus, ensuring that the final deliverables meet the expectations of stakeholders and complies with the relevant standards and regulations.
Our models are developed using direct plant data or industry-standard thermodynamic methods and physical property data to provide robust and accurate results. Specifications are produced with the right physical and mechanical properties to permit procurement of equipment and materials as well as preparation of inquiries for construction.
Some of our experiences and services include:
-
Preparation of process and functional description document
-
Process Flow Diagram (PFD)
-
Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID)
-
Equipment & Instrument Specification
-
Line, instrument and equipment List
-
Insulation Specification
-
Other documentations
Process Control and Optimisation
An important part of process control is the measurement of one or more variables, the comparison with a set point or a desired value, and the application of feedback or feedforward mechanisms to adjust the variables.
We have a team of highly experienced engineers who can work with your team using real-time, data-driven decisions to maintain process stability, increase safety and quickly realize significant improvements to your process control challenges, no matter whether they're designing a new plant or modifying an existing one.
At Fedem, our services include:
-
PID controller design, tuning, and troubleshooting
-
Feedforward and ratio control
-
Process monitoring and optimisation
-
Preparation of operating, control and safeguarding philosophy
-
Provide PID tuning and optimisation to reduce/ eliminate oscillations and improve the control quality of the primary or advanced process control.
-
Improve plant operation and efficiency, increase energy savings and plant profit and reduce pollution and emission by PID tuning and Advanced Process Control (APC) Design and Optimisation.
Primary and Advanced Process Control
Using our diverse knowledge and dedicated Advanced Process Control (APC) tools, we develop suitable solutions together with our customers to address unique process control challenges by simultaneously controlling a number of process parameters and significantly reducing the standard deviation of these parameters, thus resulting in a more stable operation that maintain product within specifications .
Fedem Engineering uses Primary and Advanced Process Control (APC) tools such as Cascade Control and Model Predictive Control (MPC) to improve improve process profitability by enhancing quality, increasing throughput, and reducing energy usage.
Model Predictive Control is an advanced control strategy that uses mathematical models of the process to optimise the process input, and simultaneously controls a number of process parameters that maintain product within specification.
Fedem has team of highly experienced APC engineers who can work with your team to quickly realise significant improvements to your bottom line.
