Synlait Separator Capacity Upgrade

Synlait - Dunsandel

Separator Capacity Upgrade

Site Separating Capacity Increased by 70 m3/hr

Problem

Synlait were constrained by the separating capacity of their existing two separating plants.

Solution

DETA was engaged to provide engineering and project delivery services. First up we detailed the technical specifications for the tendering of the process, separator supply and building contracts for the 70 m3/hr separator capacity upgrade project. We then lead the technical and commercial bid evaluation, managed the contract award and variation processes, reviewed and modelled the site utilities, and implemented the vertical start-up procedure and site-based H&S representation. Finally we lead the commissioning and standards compliance.

Outcome

There was good collaboration with the Synlait project team and the contractors: Cortek, Bradford Building and GEA Group; and the project was successfully delivered.
