Process Engineering

Our expertise is based on substantial experience in manufacturing environments, particularly the speciality and fine chemical industry and we have extensive experience in carrying out pressure relief calculations for both reactive and non-reactive systems.

We can also provide support and assistance in process development, technology assessment, flowsheet development, cost estimation, process design, installation supervision and commissioning.

Our experience has primarily been gained with upper tier COMAH sites handling substantial quantities of toxic or flammable substances.

Synsol is geared up to carry out a wide range of process engineering tasks varying from feasibility studies right through to detailed design, and beyond.

We have substantial experience in manufacturing environments and the following is a snapshot of the type of plants and/or processes we have been involved with.
