Chemical Engineer/Separations Engineer

Company Background:
      Accudyne has a history of developing innovative process solutions to leverage the properties of liquefied gases and supercritical fluids. With the unique ability to combine chemical engineering expertise in solubility chemistry, mechanical engineering insight in materials handling, and control engineering ingenuity in integration, Accudyne creates systems that are safe to operate with minimal training. We are presently bringing to market our unique, patent-pending process technology to efficiently extract oil from oilseeds– a market-changing solution for biodiesel production. Additional patent-pending technology enables us to provide a non-traditional and energy efficient alternative to ethanol distillation – a process solution with direct implications for the growing ethanol market. Both of these technologies provide tremendous growth opportunities for Accudyne with direct benefits to the team members involved in bringing these products to market. We are deploying a series of process systems for the biofuels, food and functional food, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, industrial processing, and energy markets.

At Accudyne, innovation starts with understanding the fundamental physics of a particular process and ultimately leads to the creation of purpose-built apparatus to take advantage of these insights. We have been successful because our personnel study each customer’s needs, develop a suitable process, and engineer and construct the most appropriate process solution equipment. To provide the most innovative and appropriate solutions for our customers, we have formed DynSep, a joint venture with Phasex Corporation, a company with 26 years of ground breaking process experience in supercritical fluids. DynaSep will combine Accudyne’s abilities in equipment development with Phasex’s extensive background technology in liquefied and supercritical gas separation.

Accudyne has built a strong company by hiring very talented individuals. We are very careful of who we hire, for at Accudyne, each person is an integral part of our team. Our environment is open and friendly. Emphasis is placed on producing a great product in a timely fashion and not on corporate 'trappings'. Blue jeans, fresh ideas, and teamwork prevail over suits, conformity, and hierarchy. Our customers include both small, innovative start-ups, and venerable Fortune 500 companies.

Position Description:
     We have an immediate opening for a chemical engineer interested in pursuing global excellence in liquefied gas and supercritical fluid separation technology. This highly motivated, innovative, hands-on engineer will work with an interdisciplinary team at Accudyne and Phasex to conceive, develop, and deploy creative and innovative process concepts leveraging liquefied gases and supercritical fluids. He or she will be responsible for systems design, process analysis, and implementation for dense gas extraction projects.

Qualifications:

  • B.S or M.S in Chemical Engineering and at least 2 years of work experience
  • Strong fundamental background in one or more of the following areas: heat and mass transfer, fluid dynamics, surface and interfacial science, liquid extraction, powder and solids handling, and chemical separations
  • Working knowledge of ISA Process Flow Diagrams and P&IDs
  • Working knowledge of process hazards analysis
  • Ability to reason, to exercise good judgment, and to make and defend recommendations
  • Demonstrated ability to develop creative solutions to complex problems
  • Desire to work within a multidisciplinary engineering environment
  • Proficiency Microsoft Office; familiarity with Autodesk Inventor and Microsoft Project is a plus
  • Strong interpersonal, organizational, communications and leadership skill
