Phase Separation Solutions (PS2): The China Question
Group: Thant Sin Naing, Myat Thu Khine, Yu Thwe Phyo, Kaung Myat Win, Aye Mon Khaing, Ywet Nu Wai Hlaing
Situation Analysis: Being a specialist in the clean up of two waste streams: the remediation of soil contaminated with persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and recovering usable oil from industrial sludge using Thermal Phase Separation (TPS) technology in North America, PS2 attracted State Environmental Protection Agency of China in early 2008.
Strengths
Internationally proven world class TPS technology
Management is familiar with international markets
Extract up to 90 % of oil from industrial sludge
No harmful air emissions
Mobile, onsite remedial technology
Modular design, easily deployed, avoid transportation cost
Reusable, resalable contaminants
Own fuel source generation to fire the system
Fewer greenhouse gas emissions
Weaknesses
Still in immaturity stage
Insufficient employees
No Guarantee that JV will work
Low capacity (20,000 tons)
Not in a good locations compared to its competitor
Limited paten lifetime (will expire in 2019)

Opportunities
High entry barrier
New regulations for soil treatment market in Canada
Deadlines for ending the use and long-term storage PCBs result in strong demand for PS2’s TPS technology
Exclusive rights to use TPS in Canada & US in 2002 & in China in 2009
Environmental pollution became big issue in China
Exclusive rights to use the technology in China
Importation of waste containing POPs from province to province was banned in China
If JV works, can explore consulting services and other technologies to other parts of China.
Threats
PCB market declining in North America
Renewing contracts could be affected by the economic climate of the day
Increased in potential competitors adopting the TPS technology after 2019 when TPS will expire
US banned transporting of PCB contaminated soil from US to Canada
Competitive intensity in China Industry
Harder for PS2 to gain

    The objective of this lab was to separate and examine different solutions within a solution. In order to separate each element different methods and techniques were used. Separating the iron filings wasn't difficult or lengthy; however it did require patience and a steady hand. Separating the benzoic acid and the table salt took the longest because it needed to air dry causing the water to evaporate.…

    The separation scheme was created by centrifuging a controlled sample of one of the ions or anions combined with one of the reagents such as NaCl. It was found that it could be separated out after centrifuging and would result in a sample without the ions or anions if it precipitated. With the data from week one a method of adding the reagents in a certain order would result in the ability to separate all ions or anions out of a solution. Overall, knowing how the cations or anions reacted with certain reagents benefited greatly to determine a way to create a separation scheme.…

    What reasons might others find for opposing this solution? What modifications could you make to overcome their opposition? The biggest reason for opposition is the mindset that this group wants to come in and stop anyone from logging, drilling for oil and gas or to basically restrict activities in the area. We have to find a way to convince them that we support these activities but they must be carried out in the manner intended. Too often in these rural area, outfits try to do as little as possible and sometimes nothing to mitigate any damage to the creeks or river by…

    The Discussion of this experiment began with discussing how many materials we use today are actually mixtures of pure substances. The separation of these materials into their pure substances can be quite challenging. When we are discussing separations of a mixture that contains pure substances, it all depends on whether you can separate the substances by physical means. That means, utilizing each substances physical properties such as boiling point, melting point, and magnetism.…
