1. MY CONTRIBUTIONS TO INDUSTRIES for 39 years<br />Credits for Improvement suggested / implemented:<br />A. QATAR GAS (2008sept till date) shift supervisor plant commissioning& operating SRU train4, 5&6 unit-1 and 2, 3&4 plants (ready to commissioning) <br />Sulfur granules spillages on floor, sulfur along with sand, while loading to ships is amounting to 300 bags over 6-7 months period – no way to dump or discard, suggested for re melting and in filter mesh to retain sand &through it away, thus the sulfur recovered back as sulfur liquid and regranulation now the waste bags are hardly 3-4 and being reprocessed, suggested for marketing liquid sulfur <br /> <br />B. CHENNAI PETROLEUM CORPORATION LIMITED<br />Sulfur Recovery Unit (2005-2008):Dy.manager<br />Reactor temperature reduced from 1300 C to 1000 C to reduce SO2 emitted in the stack<br />Detected and corrected the Air Demand Analysis Calculation block to reduce the SO2 emissions and also improve the plant yield <br />Inter connections of various column and platform sections suggested for ensuring ease in operation / access and as safe exit in case of emergency<br />C. HGU&NHT-CRU (2003-2005):Dy.manager<br />Involved in plant commissioning & operation<br />NHT splitter over head light naphtha was diverted as Hexane plant feed<br />D. Oil Movements and Storage (1992-1996 & 1999-2003) Dy.manager<br />Blending of SK and HN batches to meet the specification of 0.5% Sulfur in Diesel done before commissioning of DHDS plant <br />Reduced internal transfer operation time by pumping SK return stream from LAB plant for blending in SK, HSD &FO tanks <br />Reduced FO making by persuading marketing section to market asphalt directly<br />E. Cauvery Basin Refinery- CDU (1996-99) shift manager<br />Existing under utilized 4th naphtha tank used receiving additional crude thus increasing the throughput<br />CDU distillation temperature reduced from 375 C to 347 C based on past experience at the UOP operated NNPC (CDU temperature 343 C) and saved energy<br />Withdrawal of Heavy naphtha to blend in Naphtha rundown was suggested to meet the Naphtha RVP specification and also increase overall crude throughput<br /> F. NNPC-Nigeria CDU& VDU (1989--1992) panel operator <br />VDU reflux TIC was taken in manual and prevented S/D failures due to regular rains <br />Suggested LSRG as a substitute to imported hexane for a local vegetable oil industry and LSRG thus found a direct marketing substituting imported HEXANE<br />Surplus FCCU feedstock (HVGO) marketing proposed and was marketed subsequently<br />G. Wax plant (1983-1989) panel operator<br />Feed stock conservation done by recirculation<br />For additional product existing slabs + pellets (suggested prills & demonstrated)<br />Proposed use of by product Foots oil to market as direct product and also it is used <br />As feed to FCCU / Hydro Cracker leading to value addition <br />Condensed solvent vapor was routed to vacuum filter without any pump <br />Spilled waste product wax was recycled by reclamation system was developed <br />
