Responsibilities / Tasks
o Develop piping layouts for sanitary and hygienic applications, including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries, ensuring compliance with relevant standards (e.g., ASME BPE).
o Ensure designs minimize dead legs and promote cleanability and sterilizability, supporting CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-in-Place) operations.
o Incorporate industry-specific standards, such as ASME-BPE, into piping designs to ensure the system meets sanitary and hygienic regulations.
o Ensure all fittings, valves, and components adhere to hygienic standards to maintain product integrity.
o Design skids and valve manifolds for hygienic systems, ensuring compact layouts that meet operational, cleaning, and maintenance requirements.
o Work with process engineers to integrate piping systems into hygienic equipment such as tanks, pumps, and heat exchangers.
o Ensure seamless integration of hygienic piping with instruments like flowmeters, pressure sensors, and temperature transmitters.
o Develop piping designs that promote laminar flow, reduce turbulence, and prevent product stagnation, ensuring optimal process efficiency and hygiene.
o Analyze and address potential areas of contamination in the system design.
o Create and review 3D models tailored to hygienic piping systems using tools like Autodesk Plant 3D, ensuring precision in complex assemblies.
o Use clash detection software Navisworks to ensure clean and efficient piping layouts.
o Collaborate with process, mechanical, and instrumentation teams to align piping designs with broader system requirements.
