Digestion Relief Design Option Study

Solution Provided | Reduce the risk of over pressurisation, while simplifying the operability/maintainability of the system and de-constraining the Digestion facility for potential future production increase.

Disciplines | Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering, Design

Carnac – Project Delivery Services Pty Ltd (Carnac) provided engineering services to assess design options to remove the process flow constraint of the Digestion facility relief system. Carnac’s assessment included the following:

  • Completed a 3rd party material risk review before the project commenced;

  • Reviewed the rules to operate and previous relief reports to define a centralised database of pressure relief scenarios;

  • Performed a review with the client, to present and evaluate findings of the definition phase of the project; and

  • Refined the project outcomes, with a focus on:

    • Development of “redline” P&IDs;

    • High level process design criteria;

    • A Pre-concept screening estimate; and

    • A recommendation for future phases of study.
