- Identify raw water requirements and characterize process effluents in coordination with process teams and clients.
- Select and evaluate appropriate water treatment technologies to meet process and discharge requirements.
- Develop and validate water balances, process schemes, and system configurations.
- Perform process calculations and simulations to support equipment selection and system design.
- Size key equipment such as storage tanks, treatment units, and utility systems.
- Prepare and review process deliverables including PFDs, P&IDs, process design specifications (PDS), and technical reports.
- Support the evaluation of water reuse and recycling strategies to optimize water consumption.
- Ensure alignment between process design, environmental regulations, and project requirements.
- Collaborate with internal disciplines (mechanical, electrical, civil, automation) and external partners.
- Support procurement activities through preparation of technical specifications and review of vendor documentation.
- Contribute to commissioning, start-up, and troubleshooting activities when required.
Typical Activities
- Preparation of process documentation (BFD, PFD, P&ID, process notes).
- Development of water balances and treatment concepts for industrial facilities.
- Equipment sizing and process calculations.
