Speaker1: Mr Richard Fong, FIET Council Member, International Professional Registration Advisor (Why choose professional registration as a Chartered Engineer?)
Speaker 2: Mr Nicholas Week, CEng, Materials Engineering Manager-Singapore Rolls-Royce(Chartered Engineer (CEng) professional registration and benefits)
Speaker3: Dr Andrew, CEng, MIET, Assistant Professor at the Singapore Institute of Technology
(Processing of the application and advantages of being a Chartered Engineer)
The IET CEng talk aims to provide the members with a comprehensive understanding of the Chartered Engineer application process and in addition the opportunity to visit the restaurant’sbeverage processing plant. Members gain an opportunity to witness the complexity of the plant which features advanced automation technology. From the preparation of barley malt & raw hops, to fermenting yeast, the entire process promises a sophisticated means of producing top quality beverages.
Excellence in engineering can only be achieved when the factors such as energy costs and pollution of the environment can be successfully minimised. In order to guarantee that these objectives can be fulfilled, powerful automation technology is required, which consists of suitable hardware and software components. Members will discover more about these innovative solutions during the visit.
To achieve the above objectives, it is necessary to measure the essential parameters of the beverage production process at definite times. These parameters encompass the levels of the beverage in the containers, in/out flow of the units, pressure in the tanks and temperatureat particular points of interest in the units, pH measurement and conductivity for analysing the flow. Different measurement equipment or sensors are required
for the assessment of these parameters. Following the measurement, the attained values have to be compared with the desired values for these parameters. Here,
members are able to understand the innovative processes used in brewing that are achieved using classic PID controllers, advanced knowledge-based controllers and fuzzy logic controllers.
