We've already talked about this plant and the site activities in wich we were involved during the electromechanical works, but we would like to show here some photos taken during the start-up.
The photo on the left shows the plant completed and operating.
This is our new Process Engineer Tommaso Bacci (Green Engineering), together with Dr. Frighton (ETHCO) , following start-up activities. All photos shown in this post are made by Tommaso.
During Start-Up the plant is monitored by our process specialists day and night. The following photos show the plant operating during the night under the supervision of our process specialists.
This is a view of the cooling unit of the plant. The cooling tower and the chiller unit are visible. The persons near the chiller unit are Mr. Luca Cervi (process coordinator in Green Engineering), Mr. Roberto Mori (Senior Instrument Engineer in Green Engineering) and Mr. Wright Kachepa (Plant Engineerin in ETHCO).
This is the control room of the distillery. Our plants are highly automated thanks to powerful and reliable control systems. Mr. Roberto Mori is the coordinator for the Control Systems Development in Green Engineering: in the photo he is working with an operator from ETHCO.
Control Room by night.
The following picture shows Ing. Luca Cervi (process coordinator in Green Engineering) during the training activities for the new plant.
Training courses are a standard activity for our process specialists for every new plant. They are based on our operative manuals and on our experience in the field of industrial distillation.
