Our client, Infinite Consulting Engineers, reports that an active fire-suppression systems are an integral part of any building, ensuring safety and resilience against the destructive forces of fire.

Considering our expertise in assessing, designing and implementing effective fire safety measures in buildings, Infinite Consulting Engineers was the obvious choice for such professional services at Savannah Mall.

The system consists of two diesel-driven pumps that draw water from two 250kl tanks.

To ensure seamless integration between the different disciplines involved, the project entailed extensive planning.

We are proud of the part that we have played in ensuring that this mall with its 100 shops continues to provide a safe environment for shoppers and employees.

Our Client, LNW Consulting Engineers reports that it is essential for containing gases or liquids at pressures that are substantially different from ambient pressure, high-pressure vessels are a critical component of many industrial processes. These range from the oil and gas and power generation through to the manufacture of chemicals and pharmaceutical products. Therefore, leading participants in these sectors choose to only partner an expert in the field.

Among the skills and experiences housed within LNW Consulting Engineers and Project Managers is an ability to simulate the behaviour of high-pressure vessels under different loading conditions. By deploying our extensive Finite Engineering Analysis (FEA) capabilities, we can optimise our engineering designs to ensure that high-pressure vessels can withstand changes in stresses and strains that they encounter during their lifetime.

By identifying potential failure modes, FEA also helps us to design tanks that comply with all the necessary safety standards so as to avoid catastrophic failures.

Bringing to the fore areas that need improvement, FEA enables us to reduce the number of design iterations and, in this way, accelerate tank and high-pressure vessel design for our many clients.

These optimised designs also save our clients in fabrication costs; improve constructability; and reduce the carbon footprint of their new tanks and high-pressure vessels. For example, we can minimise the amount of material required to fabricate tanks and high-pressure vessels while also ensuring that they can withstand the required loads.

Our client, Ceenex, reports that effective and reliable service delivery remains one of the biggest challenges that South Africa faces. This is especially the case in many rural areas where economic development and growth opportunities are lost due to limited municipal resources.

With many of these municipalities unable to allocate sufficient financial and technical resources to preventative maintenance and reactive repairs, it is imperative to optimise the design of new infrastructure over its long lifecycle. This remains a significant focus for Ceenex which has a long track record working with municipalities in these areas of South Africa to improve service delivery to constituents.

A case in point is the way in which we have optimised the design of our water-treatment plants to minimise electrical and mechanical processes, reducing preventative maintenance and fault finding, as well as inspection and testing requirements.

Other than extraction and chemical dosing, Ceenex’s innovative designs make extensive use of hydraulic energy for coagulation, flocculation and filtration. Horizontal flow sedimentation tanks allow water to flow horizontally. In this way, particles are separated from the water when it moves through the tanks and collected when it exits. Sludge is removed periodically to facilitate continued processes, undertaken manually without operational interventions. Autonomous-gravity sand filters remove fine suspended solids from water without the need for external control systems or electrical supply. The built-in hydraulic design enables autonomous initiation of the backwash cycles, with operator intervention limited to periodic maintenance inspections.

Our pump stations use variable speed drive pumps. By controlling their speed by adjusting the frequency and voltage of the power supplied to the motor, they operate at their most efficient point for any given flow rate. In turn, this provides energy savings; improved process control; and reduced wear and tear.
