More detail of power Plant Work

From 1979 to 1981 I was employed by the ESB Ireland as a shift charge engineer in

Ferbane milled peat power plant. My work there was to ensure safe and efficient

operation of the power plant.

From 1982 to 1986 I work in ESB Projects Department as a Power Plant Design

Engineer on the Shannonbridge and Lanesboro Milled Peat Stations 45.5 MW

extensions This involved the design of Turbine and Boiler systems such as:

The Main Condenser Cooling Water Pumps systems , river intake and band screen

The Main pumps Tie Roads

The Auxiliary Cooling Water Systems Pumps and associated pipework

The Peat handling and blending systems

The Boiler Fly Ash Handling plant

The Chemical Neutralisation Plant

The Fuel intake and conveying systems

The station fire fighting systems

The boiler blowdown system

As well as the design and specification of the plant I was also involved in Tender

Position: Senior Energy Expert

Description: Perform energy audits in Industrial and Commercial premise. This work is basically the

list of energy audits done below.

Thematic Expert EU 4th , 6th , 7th Frameworks This work is shown below under the heading of International Work

International Work Experience

1) Lightwave Technologies Dublin: - 2003 to 2005 part-time: I invented and design a new type of building energy management system using neural networks to intelligent control a building BMS. The new system uses data mining and neural networks to minimise energy usage in heating and cooling of buildings I held the position as Energy Consultant to Lightwave Technologies Dublin. See links

2) Magnetically enhanced Chemistry

I discovered and helped provide energy balance research assistances to Ukrainian scientists to develop a chemical reaction chamber based on energetics to break chemical bonds using energy field radiation which require no heating or cooling.

3) Cavitation Hydrodynamics

Further to an energy audit in a cement factory in Ireland I discovered a better more efficient way of crushing cement in Ukraine. I help develop a new concept in cement crushing that would save 80% of existing cost of ball mills. Working with these scientist I provide energy balance and saving estimates to the Ukrainian scientists and so they develop a hydrodynamic cavitational resonance chamber to break coal into mircons as a replacement for large energy using ball mills.
