Week Three Rudy

Hello WashU + any and all readers, my name is Rudy Lawler. I am an incoming Junior in Mechanical Engineering - I was at summer school during the start of the program which is why this post is just about my first week. After getting in Sunday dead tired, we quickly got into the swing of our projects. I spent the first two days taking tours of the brewery, having conversations/quizzes with some of the leads, and reading a manual on all of the equipment used in the Brewery's packaging lines. After that, my lead Terrence and I ran a "loss and waste analysis" on the packaging hall and found a good source of water loss for me to investigate: a tunnel pasteurizer that is currently using 10 times the water projected by the manufacturer. For the last 3 days of this workweek I read up on Pasteurizer technology, found the pathways by which water is lost/consumed by the pasteurizer, and gone over some theories that Terrence has for why the machine discharges more water than it shoul...

Intro To Greyson

Hello, My name is Greyson Bourgeois and I am from Austin, Texas. I am a dual degree student which means that I spent my first 3 years of college at Grinnell College in Iowa studying computer science, and am now at WUSTL earning a second bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering alongside a masters degree in Electrical Engineering. I am really excited for this opportunity to work at SAB in Joburg. I am looking forward to learning all about the brewing process and getting to see South Africa. I am hoping to get to see some of the safaris and museums while I am in Johannesburg, as well as learn more about the culture in South Africa. I also hope to get to try some local food while I am there since I like to cook and eat new foods. Ill be posting more on this blog as I work in South Africa, uploading pictures and experiences of my time working with SAB.

Greyson Week 3

Image
Last Sunday the third intern, Rudy, arrived here. We were able to start getting him up to speed on the way the program is working and get to the store to get our food with him without having to go too late. After this week w're officially half way through our time in South Africa. This week I really started getting into my projects, working on a report on the brewery's compliance with company policies, my calculations for the potential upgrade to the CHP plant, and doing the prep work for the repair of a heat exchanger in the boiler room. I've also been shadowing Myron around the plant has he takes care of various  problems around the plant. So I'm getting a lot of great industry experience between the work I'm doing and getting to watch the more advanced stuff Myron does. This Saturday we went to the Pretoria National Botanical Garden and walked around, getting to see the waterfall and the various gardens. We had a bunch of fun walking around and seeing all the...
