Process Engineering

ETDE’s process engineering expertise and skills cover a wide range of specialist, critical manufacturing sectors from biotechnology, pharmaceutical and healthcare, speciality chemicals, fuel cells, renewable energy and heavy industrial through to biorenewables, flexible electronics, waste to energy, biofuels, and novel advanced manufacturing.

Extensive in-house knowledge of processing, packaging, distribution, upstream and downstream operations across a range of industries enables us to conceptualise, design and deliver the most complex and technically-challenging projects.

Operating within high risk, highly critical market sectors and understanding the needs of highly regulated environments is second nature to our engineering teams and forms the core platform of our process engineering excellence.

World-class expertise in delivering turnkey projects

ETDE’s specialist knowledge of a wide range of different product forms, processes and unit operations ensures that we design world-class process engineering and integrated facility solutions. We competently manage unit operations for handling gaseous, liquid, semi solid and solid streams and understand the associated handling strategies and techniques.

Our wide-ranging expertise in current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) through to high security, high hazard, top tier COMAH sites enables ETDE to undertake projects on both new and existing operational facilities. Our process engineering solutions are not only highly robust and resilient but, more importantly, represent the lowest-risk option.

ETDE is the process engineering alliance partner of choice. Unlike our competitors, we are experienced at laboratory, development and manufacturing scale. We offer world-class expertise in the development of innovative, first-of-kind processes, manufacturing capacity upgrades and process optimisation programmes.

Clean utilities

Our in-house expertise covers every client requirement, from high purity water, pure steam and bio waste through to sterile gases, cleaning and sanitisation in place.

Expert in energy efficiency

Waste reduction and sustainability are at the heart of what we do. Cleaner, greener processes based on either green chemistry, innovative biotechnology, biomass-based or novel materials, batch, semi-batch or continuous processing are key areas of our truly world-class expertise.

In-house capabilities

Coupled with our in-house, multi-disciplinary design, construction and commissioning/validation capabilities and site operatives for process piping, mechanical, electrical, controls and instrumentation, we can guarantee cost-effective, fast-track turnkey solutions and underwrite project performance, with unique single point accountability on every process engineering project we undertake, meaning we can get your products and processes to the market first time, every time.

Our in-house, orbital-welding and dedicated prefabrication facilities enable us to provide fully traceable, fast-track modular skids and bespoke solutions for every need.

Continuous improvement methodologies, innovation and quality by design are fundamental to ETDE’s process engineering services. Our global, blue chip, hi-tech client base spans both the public and private sectors.
