Эмиль

Emil is a founder of Downtime Reduction Methodology and a Downtime Reduction School of Knowledge. He gained his academic knowledge and practical experience while working for many privately-owned and government enterprises in several countries and in different capacities from an electrician and PLC programmer to a chief scientist and a general manager. He has accomplished hundreds of industrial and scientific projects by solving a great numbers of technical problems, inventing and patenting their solutions. Emil is a technical writer, courseware developer and a WEB designer. In most cases, his main achievements spread across many industries and engineering disciplines for the purpose of obtaining feasible solutions that have never been solved before.

Emil's approach to technical problems are well defined from conceptual design to construction, installation, testing and commissioning of industrial projects from a single production machinery to an overall plant automation, such as $600M abatement project of Inco Ltd in Ontario Canada, $1.3B LePrino Foods Factory in California, and $350M wind farm projects in five US states.

For the past 40 year Emil was working mostly in the private sector as a system integrator, PLC/HMI/SCADA/DCS programmer, instrumentation specialist, inventor, and a teacher. He has developed over 30 technical courses and conducted them across Canada and the USA, including his time as a professor of Conestoga University of Technology in Ontario, Raytheon Engineering AL, Lavalin Engineering, Davy McKey, Acres, and several others.

Emil has decided to share his experience and a vast knowledge with anyone who needs it in order to make another step towards better job. In the meantime, he is helping PLC programmers with a stand-alone laptops loaded with the most common PLC and HMI software. His new and unique development is an external USB hard drive which works by connecting it to any computer and booting it up. Small size and weight of this EHD -- external hard drive -- is capable of having several operating systems and run a hundred of preinstalled PLC/HMI programs concurrently.

Emil's present development is the Downtime Reduction Methodology. This methodology has been thoroughly tested and implemented dozens of times in different industrial projects, such as 100-ton electric arc furnace (Cambridge, Ontario), 11 metallurgical plants (Sudbury, Ontario), Power quality control of wind farms for Enron Energy (CA, USA), Ultra-violet disinfection of wastewater (IL, CA, AUS), 10 MW plasma steel melters (Canada, USA) , Environmental chambers (Monsanto MI, Zurich (Swiss), Moscow (Russia) and many more.
