To ensure efficient and safe operation of the Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE), Deodorizer, and Dryer systems by optimizing process parameters, improving product quality, maximizing production efficiency, and reducing process losses in the edible oil refining process.
Key Responsibilities
- Operate and optimize PHE, Deodorizer, and Dryer processes to achieve production and quality targets.
- Monitor critical process parameters such as temperature, pressure, vacuum, steam consumption, flow rate, and moisture levels.
- Ensure optimum heat recovery and energy efficiency of Plate Heat Exchangers.
- Monitor deodorization performance to achieve desired Free Fatty Acid (FFA), colour, and odour specifications.
- Ensure proper drying of refined oil by maintaining required moisture levels.
- Investigate process deviations and implement corrective and preventive actions.
- Coordinate with Maintenance for preventive maintenance and troubleshooting of process equipment.
- Analyse production data and recommend process improvements to increase yield and reduce oil losses.
- Ensure adherence to SOPs, GMP, HACCP, FSSAI, ISO, and EHS standards.
- Support commissioning, process validation, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Required Skills
- Strong knowledge of edible oil refining processes.
- Hands-on experience in PHE, Deodorizer, and Dryer operations.
- Knowledge of heat transfer, vacuum systems, and steam systems.
- Understanding of process instrumentation and PLC/SCADA operations.
- Experience in process troubleshooting and root cause analysis.
- Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing, TPM, or Six Sigma tools.
- Good analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Train operators on process controls, troubleshooting, and best operating practices.
- Prepare daily process reports and monitor key process performance indicators.
