Student in South Africa designs: Extraordinary Paediatric Cot (bed):
A display of engineering creativity has earned industrial design firm Praestet a contract to supply 50 of its Symba paediatric beds to the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital (NMCH), with three beds already delivered to the Parktown-based paediatric hospital.
An improvement on the old “cage bed” normally seen in the paediatric wards at hospitals, the Symba also holds a competitive advantage, pricewise, to paediatric beds that have been designed and manufactured overseas, Praestet director Jed Aylmer told Engineering News Online.

Aurecon: New gas projects will be economical
New gas projects will be economical – Aurecon:
With two major gas-to-power projects under way in the country, consulting company Aurecon believes that the two, possibly three, gas power stations associated with the projects can be economical as existing infrastructure can be used to support them.
There are currently two major gas-to-power projects in the gas industry – the big gas programme that will see liquefied natural gas- (LNG-) fuelled power stations installed at one or both at the Port of Richards Bay, in KwaZulu-Natal, and the Port of Coega, in Eastern Cape, and the small gas programme that is anticipated to see a gas power plant installed at the Port of Saldanha Bay, in the Western Cape.
The Richards Bay LNG-fired power station as well as the Coega LNG-fired power station are anticipated to each produce 1 000 MW and, together with other LNG projects across South Africa, a total of 3 000 MW will be added to the grid once the projects have been completed.
There are currently three ways for South Africa to acquire natural gas: the Karoo has a supply of shale gas that can be extracted through fracking, the three major ports of Saldanha Bay, Coega and Richards Bay can import from international sources or natural gas can be imported from Mozambique.

Sasol unveils R1.1bn polypropylene expansion project:
Sasol unveils R1.1bn polypropylene expansion project:
Petrochemicals group Sasol on Monday inaugurated its C3 expansion project, which enables it to expand Secunda Chemicals Operations polypropylene production by 103 000 t/y to just over 625 000 t/y. The R1.1-billion, Secunda-based project was lauded as a major capital investment in tough economic times by Deputy Finance Minister Mcebisi Jonas.
Sasol joint president and CEO Stephen Cornell said the C3 expansion project investment further entrenched Sasol as a global chemicals player. The project started in 2013 and achieved overall beneficial operation in February. The project aims to debottleneck Sasol’s downstream polypropylene plants to improve overall efficiency.
The project is set to increase the potential foreign currency earned for South Africa, through additional exports sales, by $1.7-billion.

Clover opens R40m visitors centre:
Clover opens R40m visitors centre:
Dairy products and juice manufacturer Clover on Tuesday launched its R40-million visitors centre at its factory in Clayville, Midrand – the first such centre in the South African dairy industry. The facility, which took three years to complete, will be open to the public from February 2017.
CEO Johann Vorster told Engineering News Online during a tour of the centre that it had been an “engineering challenge”. Vorster noted that the benefits of dairy products, especially for children, were a subject the visitors centre dealt with. Vorster stated that the facility was designed with an emphasis on sustainability, reflected by the company’s low water and electricity use. He pointed out that the Clayville facility was one of the group’s major hubs for both dairy and beverage manufacturing and employed 1 600 people.

OR Tambo first African airport to implement digital security checkpoint:
To improve passenger security and speed up the process of moving through airport security checkpoints, the OR Tambo International Airport will implement a new digital security system – the first airport in Africa to do so.
The pilot implementation of the Scarabee smart security system, which uses a body scanner capable of detecting organic and inorganic anomalies, will be operational at the international departures’ security checkpoint from November 8.
Introducing the new system, Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) group head of security Jason Tshabalala on Friday said it would detect threats, such as plastic explosives, that would otherwise go undetected by metal detectors.
The body scanner, which is said to emit less radiation than a cellphone, does not show a person on its screen, but rather uses an avatar to display the location of anomalies on the body, enabling a targeted body search.
