Industry Demand

Externship Demand
We are fully committed to engaging and supporting externship professionals.
Cooperative Training Demand
The organization requires advanced technology implementation mechanisms
Technology Gap
Aluminium sulphate and sulfuric acid control system modification
Joint Applied Research
Solid waste management practices should be strengthened, specifically for the processing of filter cake (kaolin residue) into a commercially valuable product.
Consultancy Demand
We need on: high level maintenance and DCS technology transfer. And GC analysis machine maintenance
Priority Collaboration Theme
To optimize the physical properties of our Aluminium Sulphate, the current crystallization stage requires a systematic upgrade to a rotary or spray drying system. This transition will allow for superior control over particle size distribution and eliminate the process bottlenecks associated with atmospheric crystallization.
