Lindsey Ho’s work at Equity has included pressure relief system revalidation, PRD sizing, selection, and installation calculations to ensure compliance amongst standards for clients. She has also worked on projects using RBI technologies to analyze and adjust PRD inspection intervals.
Before working at Equity, Lindsey worked as a process engineer for projects in the chemicals, refining, and renewables industry. Some of her previous projects include a cooling water system redesign due to low flow, a distillation tower upgrade to support the growing demand of semiconductor fabrication, a hydrogen compressor installation, and multiple tank and instrument upgrades in the coker unit of a major refinery in the Midwest due to reliability issues prompting shutdown.
While on these projects, she was responsible for the demo and construction P&IDs, piping hydraulic calculations, and determining equipment, utility, and instrument requirements. Additionally, she created process simulations and heat & material balances using Aspen HYSYS and AFT Fathom to meet flow rate and line sizing EEPs. Lindsey has also sized and quoted pressure relief valves for over eight refinery units at a major refinery in the Midwest and for a project that converted waste to a renewable fuel using a zero-emissions system.
