Whether you’re in agribusiness, food processing, mining, or another large-scale industry, KFI Engineers can quickly go from bench scale to commercial to production, matching our procedures to your preferred delivery systems. Our process engineers are skilled in handling materials and fluids, heat transfer, filtration, and metering. Aspiration systems, pollution control systems, and balance-of-plant design are things we handle daily. We pride ourselves in our ability to identify and recover value-added product streams. We use 3D software to produce accurate isometrics for complex piping systems, and we always provide the budgets and data to support your decision-making process.
We can manage the process of getting your facility up and running — from startup to construction management to commissioning — handling any issues or changes that arise. You can expect total project work plans, budgets, schedules, and clearly defined deliverables held to the highest quality standards. We understand your business drivers and track toward your business goals. We even have relationships with equipment manufacturers and can assist you with procurement.
KFI provides planning, design, and commissioning of power generation and distribution for critical infrastructure. Our Industrial and Infrastructure division’s electrical engineering group specializes in power generation, distribution, and auxiliary systems for utility plants; industrial facilities; and medical, research, and educational campuses.
Our staff are experienced in steam turbine, gas turbine, reciprocating engine, wind, solar PV, and small-hydro generation, as well as integration of combined heat and power (CHP) projects into existing process plant, medical, and educational campus distribution systems. We understand that your project must be completed with minimal impact to operations, so we consider buildability, phasing, and work sequence throughout all phases of planning and design.
A recognized leader in the analysis and design of utility and central energy systems, KFI stresses the importance of specifying the appropriate equipment, materials, and phasing procedures to ensure long-term trouble-free operation. Our systematic approach incorporates life-cycle cost evaluation. By analyzing operating schedules, energy rates, maintenance costs, and the reliability of various system types, we can guide clients toward design solutions that meet operational and financial goals.
Starting with the initial project concept, we work with the client and other design team members to develop an economical structural system that is also accessible and operationally efficient. We evaluate code-required load requirements for equipment, operation, and the environment in order to choose the best construction materials and layouts for each project. We can be on-site to observe existing conditions and discuss structural options to ensure the final design meets client needs and is structurally sound.
