Eng student hire for R&D projects
FY 2021-22 · 2021-05-17
Summary
This project involves hiring an engineering summer student to help further development on the CROSSFIRE Vapour Recovery Unit and increasing the output capacity and efficiency through design changes. The project will also include further optimizing the instrument air compressor, specifically to increase output and efficiency in high pressure applications 100PSI or greater. Additionally, confirm viability of the CROSSFIRE as a positive displacement meter to quantify Methane emissions and carbon offset value. Lastly, the student will be involved in production of the CROSSFIRE chemical pump and instrument air compressor and will work on increasing production output and optimizing production lines.

Description (French)
Ce projet consiste à embaucher un étudiant en ingénierie pour l'été afin d'aider à poursuivre la mise au point de l'unité de récupération de vapeurs CROSSFIRE et à augmenter la capacité de production et l'efficacité grâce à des modifications de conception. Le projet comprendra également l'optimisation du compresseur d'air pour instruments, en particulier pour augmenter le rendement et l'efficacité dans des applications à haute pression (100PSI ou plus). En outre, il s'agira de confirmer la viabilité de CROSSFIRE en tant que compteur à déplacement positif pour quantifier les émissions de méthane et la valeur de compensation carbone. Enfin, l'étudiant prendra part à la production de la pompe chimique et du compresseur d'air pour instruments CROSSFIRE et travaillera à l'augmentation de la production et à l'optimisation des lignes de production.
