After training as a marine engineer, I pursued a career in heat and mass transfer until establishing my own consulting firm. I was first retained by the Department of Energy, then by the DTI Design Advisory Service and the Production Engineering Research Association. I have since undertaken 46 plant design and build projects alongside 53 process consultancies, and completed 17 expert witness instructions. My CEng registration was predicated by the design and engineering of major projects for Alcan Aluminium,...
