KTP Associate (Heriot-Watt University and IMRANDD)

Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom

12/18/2024

This collaborative Knowledge Transfer Project (KTP), led by the successful appointee, shall develop a new in-line process evaluation tool to optimise biomass characterisation for syngas production. This will involve material spectral characterisation, and use of hyperspectral imaging techniques to qualify desirable biomass.

This 18-month, full-time position is run by Herriot-Watt University, funded by IMRANDD as the industry partner and Innovate UK. The successful appointee shall be based at IMRANDD’s office in Aberdeen and the project will involve working closely with colleagues at Heriot-Watt University’s Riccarton campus in Edinburgh.

IMRANDD provides engineering consultancy services and software solutions to continual process industries; these predict failures and improve safety, operational performance and profitability. We have wide ranging experience of disciplines such as process design, chemical management, materials sciences, non-destructive testing and inspection, structural and mechanical engineering and advanced data science. We have capitalised on this to develop a range of unique patented software tools that can gather, sort and condition very large data sets across an entire plant’s operations and provide near live process monitoring and detection of internal plant threats.

This project represents an exciting new direction for the business as we seek to further support our moves into the syngas field. It has a critical place within the business and will be responsible for the transfer of knowledge from Heriot-Watt University to IMRANDD and contribute to market growth for the business.
