Nicholas Mcgowan’s Location Loughborough, England, United Kingdom
Nicholas Mcgowan’s Expertise I am highly experienced in commissioning and optimizing wastewater and clean water systems, as well as municipal solid waste and source-segregated waste/food waste anaerobic digestion systems with CHP generation and spent sludge handling. My expertise includes digestion optimization for enhanced biogas production using technologies such as Thermal Hydrolysis (Cambi B12) and Enhanced Enzymic Hydrolysis (Monsal). I excel in digester start-up and conversions, ensuring proper organic loading rates for easy conversion of enhanced substrates, and troubleshooting issues such as burping, foaming, poor gas production, and poor mixing. Additionally, I have extensive experience in wastewater plant commissioning and optimization, including open activated sludge aeration, settlement tanks, thickening and dewatering, pasteurization/hygienization, and spent sludge handling with thickeners, centrifuges, pressing, and composting. I specialize in maximizing feedstock to AD plants using pulpers/dissolvers, hydrocyclonic grit removal, and hydrolysis tanks. I also have significant experience in effluent evaluation and treatment for various processes including industrial, chemical, food waste, and wastewater treatment. My skills extend to the commissioning of MRF (Materials Recovery Facilities), which includes shredders, sized fraction screens, air knives, and ferrous/non-ferrous recovery. I am also proficient in commissioning and optimizing biological systems such as biofilters, odour treatment, SBR, and MBR. I am adept at sampling and analyzing municipal and industrial wastes, assessing them against waste profiles and design criteria. My expertise includes the commissioning of gasification subsystems, steam handling, steam sampling, syngas sampling, water treatment packages, and chemical dosing packages, as well as supervising CEMS commissioning and testing (QAL 2). I have extensive experience in the commissioning of DAF technology with RGF, GAC, and chlorination/sulphonation of clean water supply facilities, Siemens membranes, coagulation, pH correction, MBRs, SBRs, and reverse osmosis. Additionally, I am skilled in commissioning and optimizing a wide variety of chemical dosing systems and ancillaries. With a strong analytical mindset, I excel in sample collection and analysis of waste, wet chemistry, and biological aspects of laboratory work. I am a skilled process problem solver, capable of producing comprehensive method statements, risk assessments, commissioning plans, and start-up protocols.
