DEPARTMENT

Operations - Polymer

JOB PURPOSE & RESPONSIBILITIES

The mission of this internship is to support the Polymer Unit daily operations in improving the transport of Feedstock (pellets) from different silos of the Polymer unit to the Compouding Plant on site.

The transportation of final product from Polymer to Compouding plant has generated leakages and breakages in the expansion joints of the pipeline and blockage of the material. After implementing some improvements as new expansion joint material or maintenance reparation the problem has happened again because the root cause has not been identified.

There are studies done and material available to be consulted :

• Inspection department report
• Technical department study
• Leakage reduction program

To produce in an optimised and reliable way, it is necessary to thoroughly study the design, fine-tune the parameters of the conveying system to avoid line blockages and create a testing protocol plan.
