From Concept to Commissioning – Engineering Solutions That Work

From Concept to Commissioning – Engineering Solutions That Work

At Arthian, we specialise in process design and development that transforms ideas into operational reality. Whether you’re launching a new facility, scaling up production, or modifying existing systems, our process engineers deliver technically robust, compliant, and cost-effective solutions tailored to your goals.

 
We work across the full project lifecycle, from early-stage feasibility and concept design through to detailed engineering, procurement support, and commissioning. Our team brings decades of experience across high-hazard and highly regulated sectors, including energy, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and manufacturing.

Why Process Design Matters

Effective process design is the foundation of safe, efficient, and sustainable operations. Poorly designed systems can lead to bottlenecks, safety risks, regulatory non-compliance, and costly downtime. At Arthian, we ensure your process is:

 

  • Fit for purpose – aligned with your production goals and site constraints
  • Safe and compliant – meeting UK and EU regulatory standards
  • Scalable and future-ready – designed for flexibility and growth
  • Efficient and sustainable – optimised for energy, water, and resource use

Our Process Engineering Services

Our process design and development services include:

Conceptual Design & Feasibility Studies
Detailed Process Design
Process Safety Integration
Process Control & Automation
Design for Sustainability

Conceptual Design & Feasibility Studies

We evaluate technical options, develop process flow diagrams (PFDs), and assess CAPEX/OPEX implications to support investment decisions. This ensures your process concepts are viable, cost-effective, and aligned with operational goals.


     
    Our support includes:


       

    • Development of process flow diagrams and conceptual layouts
    • Technical evaluation of design alternatives
    • CAPEX and OPEX analysis for investment planning

Detailed Process Design

We produce piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), equipment specifications, control philosophies, and mass/energy balances to guide procurement and construction. This ensures your process is technically sound, well-documented, and ready for implementation.


     
    Our support includes:


       

    • Development of P&IDs and detailed engineering documentation
    • Specification of equipment and control systems
    • Mass and energy balance calculations for design validation

Process Safety Integration

We embed safety from the outset, incorporating HAZOP, LOPA, and SIL assessments into the design process to meet COMAH and DSEAR requirements. This ensures your systems are not only efficient but also compliant and risk-aware.


     
    Our support includes:


       

    • Integration of HAZOP, LOPA, and SIL into design workflows
    • Safety reviews aligned with COMAH and DSEAR regulations
    • Identification and mitigation of process safety risks
Process Design & Development

Process Control & Automation

We design control strategies and support PLC/SCADA integration to ensure safe, efficient, and responsive operations. This enables real-time monitoring, improved reliability, and streamlined process management.


     
    Our support includes:


       

    • Development of control philosophies and automation logic
    • Integration of PLC and SCADA systems
    • Optimisation of control strategies for safety and performance
Process Design & Development 1

Design for Sustainability

We integrate energy efficiency, water reuse, and emissions reduction into every design, supporting your net-zero and ESG goals. This ensures your processes are not only effective but also environmentally responsible and future-ready.


     
    Our support includes:


       

    • Incorporation of low-impact technologies and resource efficiency
    • Design strategies for water reuse and waste minimisation
    • Emissions reduction planning aligned with sustainability targets
