• COMAH safety report preparation and updates
• Emergency planning and mitigation strategies

We help ensure your plant operates within all relevant UK and EU regulations, protecting your team, community, and brand. We can assist with:

• Equipment specification, sourcing and integration
• Waste heat recovery and water management for sustainability
• Energy optimisation and emissions reduction

Whether you’re launching a new distillery or expanding capacity, our expertise ensures efficient, scalable and environmentally responsible production.

Process Optimisation & Efficiency Improvement

Unlock the full potential of your operations with expert-led process reviews. Our engineers:

• Identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies
• Benchmark energy and resource usage
• Implement best-practice control strategies
• Recommend and deliver improvement projects

From energy savings to increased throughput, our optimisation strategies deliver measurable ROI and sustainability benefits, essential for COMAH and non-COMAH facilities alike.

Installation & Commission Support

Successful startup begins with thorough preparation. Arthian provides:

• Commissioning and validation assistance
• Start-up troubleshooting and process tuning
• Post-startup optimisation and documentation

We help ensure readiness for safe and compliant operation, particularly critical for COMAH-tier environments.

Process Simulation Modelling

We use industry-leading software tools to simulate and analyse complex processes, enabling:

• Equipment sizing and selection
• Scenario testing and what-if analysis
• Control system design and tuning
• Debottlenecking studies

Simulation improves design certainty, reduces commissioning risk, and enhances decision-making across all sectors, including high-hazard installations.

Operational Readiness Assessments

Ahead of commissioning or handover, we assess operational readiness through:

• Systems and documentation audits
• Operator preparedness reviews
• Performance testing
• Risk identification and mitigation planning

This ensures your facility is fully prepared for safe, compliant and efficient operation—especially important for COMAH-regulated industries.

Operator Training & Documentation

Well-trained operators are key to safe and effective process control. We develop:

• Site-specific training programs
• Standard operating procedures (SOPs)
• Troubleshooting guides
• Digital learning modules and visual aids

We empower your workforce with the knowledge and tools they need, reinforcing a culture of safety and compliance.

Data Analytics for Process Monitoring

We help clients harness process data for actionable insights. Our services include:

• Sensor selection and data integration
• Real-time performance dashboards
• KPI tracking and OEE analysis
• Anomaly detection and predictive analytics

By turning data into decisions, we help optimise performance and pre-empt issues before they escalate, critical for proactive COMAH safety management.
