Calciner Rectification Project

Solution Provided | Detailed Engineering to solve Operational Issues

Discipline | Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering

Carnac were engaged by the client to identify, plan and resolve issues with the client's Calciners and to ensure future production is met and achieved sustainably.  

Carnac proposed a four (4) stage process for this project:

1. Phase 1: Identification Review Performance and Failure Modes;

2. Phase 2: Develop Strategy and Pathway for Rectification;

3. Phase 3: Engineering and Planning; and

4. Phase 4: Implementation and Maintenance Support.

Carnac utilised the extensive process and mechanical engineering experience with the team to:

• Gather and analyse process data. In particular, identifying key operational and trend parameters that can be used to correlate calciner production performance;

• Gather mechanical maintenance and equipment data; and

• Analyse maintenance data for the calciners. In particular, review mechanical installed performance against actual performance and trend current maintenance performance against "best practice" performance.
