Engineering
As your technological partner, MSSA offers customizable technologies and turnkey solutions for each of your alkaline metals matter.
MSSA is your technological partner for the design, engineering and construction of sodium facilities (unloading, transfer, storage or even formulation). MSSA can assist you on all your project’s phases with complete and personalized service from the beginning to the implementation of your project.
For each project, MSSA will apply its knowledge and feedback to ensure a design that meets with all the specificities of sodium handling. In response to your unique requirements, our team makes a selection of the best options to find the most appropriate solution to your needs.
Thanks to its expertise on lithium production, MSSA also offers engineering services for lithium facilities.
The proper design along with the most suitable technologies can guarantee the respect of the timeline, the control of the costs and a successful commissioning of your facilities.
Our engineering solutions include design phase (feasibility study, Preliminary Development Plan, Front End Engineering Design), support for construction, provision of equipment, commissioning and start up.
Typical deliverables included in engineering package are: Process Flow Diagram, P&ID, material list, I/O list, layout, HSE design, safety concept and assessment, risks analysis, procedure, equipment specifications and data sheet, package for bid and costs assessment.

Training
Our engineering solutions are completed by a personalized training for your staff to use the installations. MSSA also offers theoretical and practical training in sodium handling. Field exercises (sodium fire and sodium water reaction simulation) will allow your staff to better understand the risks and learn good practices.
The training can take place at MSSA or on your site. Our experts can study your specific problems and recommend appropriate solutions. For further information on training.
