Psa Engineer information

What is a PSA engineer?

A PSA Engineer, or Pressure Swing Adsorption Engineer, is a professional who designs, operates, and maintains PSA systems used to separate gases from a mixture under pressure. These engineers commonly work in industries such as energy, chemical production, and environmental engineering, where gas purification and separation are required. Their responsibilities include optimizing system performance, troubleshooting equipment, and ensuring safety and regulatory compliance. PSA Engineers also play a key role in improving efficiency and reducing operational costs.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a PSA engineer?

To thrive as a PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) Engineer, you need a solid understanding of chemical engineering principles, gas separation processes, and a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with simulation software (such as Aspen HYSYS), process control systems, and safety certifications like OSHA are typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, teamwork, and effective communication help PSA Engineers excel in complex project environments. These competencies ensure safe, efficient design and operation of PSA systems, which are critical for applications in industries like energy, environmental technology, and manufacturing.

What are some common challenges PSA engineers face when integrating new automation systems into existing infrastructure?

One of the most common challenges for PSA Engineers is ensuring seamless integration of new process automation systems with legacy equipment and software. This often requires detailed analysis of both old and new technologies, troubleshooting compatibility issues, and minimizing downtime during transitions. PSA Engineers must collaborate closely with IT, operations, and maintenance teams to develop phased implementation plans, conduct thorough testing, and provide training to ensure a smooth handover. Effective communication and adaptability are key to overcoming these integration hurdles.

What is the difference between Psa Engineer vs Psa Technician?

AspectPsa EngineerPsa Technician
CredentialsBachelor's degree in engineering or related field, certifications in PSA systemsTechnical diploma or associate degree, specialized PSA system training
Work EnvironmentDesign, development, and troubleshooting of PSA systems, often in engineering labs or officesInstallation, maintenance, and repair of PSA units on-site or in industrial settings
Employer & IndustryManufacturers, engineering firms, industrial plantsIndustrial facilities, water treatment plants, gas production companies

The main difference between a Psa Engineer and a Psa Technician lies in their roles and responsibilities. Psa Engineers focus on designing, developing, and troubleshooting PSA systems, often requiring a degree in engineering. Psa Technicians handle installation, maintenance, and repair tasks, typically with technical training. Both roles are essential in industries utilizing PSA technology, but they differ in scope and level of technical expertise.

Job description

The Probabilistic Safety Analysis (PSA) Engineer I will support the development and application of Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) methodologies for Holtec International's SMR-300 advanced nuclear reactor program. Working within a multidisciplinary engineering team, this role will contribute to risk-informed design, safety analysis, licensing activities, and regulatory compliance by developing and maintaining probabilistic risk models and supporting thermal-hydraulic safety evaluations. The position offers the opportunity to work on next-generation nuclear technology while collaborating with reactor design, safety analysis, licensing, and systems engineering teams to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient plant performance.
Location: Camden, NJ (On-site)
Primary Responsibilities:
  • Support development of PRA modules and/or associated thermal-hydraulic analyses under the supervision of senior engineers.
  • Develop Level 1 and Level 2 PRA models for internal and external events during full power and low power / shutdown operating modes.
  • Thermal-hydraulic analysis specialization: support RELAP5-3D and MELCOR modeling to simulate core and containment response for severe accident scenarios that inform PRA quantifications.
  • Logic modeling specialization: support development of event trees and fault trees to estimate key design risk metrics including core damage frequency (CDF) and large release frequency (LRF).
  • Support PSA model maintenance and updates that occur periodically as the SMR-300 design matures
  • Use PSA results to support implementation of risk-informed programs; for example, Regulatory Treatment of Non-Safety Systems (RTNSS), Design Reliability Assurance Program (D-RAP), 10 CFR 50.69 risk-informed categorization and treatment of SSCs.
  • Interface with the design team to communicate and implement PSA insights
  • Ensure consistency and quality of all PSA deliverables

Requirements:
  • B.S degree in nuclear engineering, mechanical engineering, or closely related field from an accredited college or university
  • Familiarity with thermal-hydraulic behavior of light water reactors (LWRs)
  • Familiarity with probabilistic risk assessment and/or thermal-hydraulic analysis methods for light-water reactors
  • Exposure to industry codes such as CAFTA, SAPHIRE, RiskSpectrum, RELAP5-3D, or MELCOR
  • 2-4 years of experience in probabilistic risk assessment and/or thermal-hydraulic safety analysis for nuclear facilities
  • Excellent technical writing, interpersonal, and communication skills
  • Eligible to work under 10 CFR Part 810
