Project Description
TfA is proud to be a major participant working with Dalby Bio-Refinery Limited, Delta-T Corporation and Leighton Contractors Pty Ltd in developing the Ethanol Industry in Australia.
TfA Contribution
TfA has been closely involved in the preliminary site designs, costings and co-ordination of Environmental Licensing and Development Approval for the Dalby Bio-Refinery project.
The TfA team completed detailed design in February 2008, working closely with the constructors, Leighton Contractors Pty Ltd, including conversion of US specifications for Australian compliance. As lead designers and engineers, our scope included civil, structural, electrical, hydraulic, tank and 3D piping designs, approvals, procurement technical reviews, tender and construction documentation.
Australia's first Grain to Ethanol plant, the Dalby Bio-Refinery, has commenced construction and is due for completion October 2008. Below are some construction photos to prove that TfA, jointly with Delta-T and Leighton Contractors, are making it happen!
