Description:
Key FunctionsProcess Design & Development
Develop, design, and modify processes to improve efficiency, quality, and safety. Create and maintain process flow diagrams (PFDs) and piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs). Projects identified at Weekly Production Meeting / Quality Meeting Participate and lead HAZOP and HACCP studies Use Modprop to document projects Ensure all documentation provided / updated at completion of project Ensure all relevant plant personnel trained in new process following project change Process Optimization
Analyse current processes and identify opportunities to reduce cost, increase yield, minimize waste, or improve cycle time. Apply Lean, Six Sigma, or statistical methods to drive continuous improvement. Use data from control systems to improve performance & technical support Trouble shooting
Investigate process issues (e.g., bottlenecks, product quality deviations, equipment failures). Perform root cause analysis (RCA) and implement corrective/preventive actions. Identify recurring troublesome production problems. Propose and implement process changes where agreed. Biogas Plant Supervision
Supervise daily biogas plant operations to ensure production targets are met. Monitor equipment, process and workflow for efficiency, environment and safety. Key Requirements
BSc Chemical Engineering degree or equivalent 4-8 years process experience in analytical and problem-solving field or disciplines chemical / manufacturing Good understanding of process in related fermentation / distilling / baking industry LEAN Manufacturing, TPM or 6 Sigma
