Pilot Plant and Lab Relocation
Project: Relocation
Features: Modification and Detail Design
Summary of Scope of Service
ATSI was selected to provide engineering design and field engineering services to relocate a Research and Development (R&D) Facility formerly located in suburban Cleveland, Ohio. The research facility had several business groups associated with the lab and pilot plant that had to be integrated into the R&D facility in Naperville, Illinois. ATSI supported the lab relocation and had complete responsibility for the pilot plant move. The pilot plant move required complete disassembly, establishing documents for installation at the new location, and process documents for safety review for operating approval. Little documentation existed on the pilot plant equipment and instrumentation. The pilot plant was controlled by an outdated DCS that required updating to conform to the new site requirements and as-builts of all control wiring for rewiring. ATSI established engineering field offices at the two sites to carry out these activities.
