Vacation Work At Sedgman

My second year of vacation work at Sedgman is coming to an end this week, as it is time to head back to Uni for year three of engineering. It has been good working here, as it is close to home, and still provided me with challenging engineering work.

In my 3.5 months here, I have undertaken a range of work. For example my major projects were:

• Research and development work in the area of fine coal separation.
• Developed a program which models the behaviour of fluidized beds.
• Developed a program & spreadsheet to estimate the amount of site-run piping within any coal processing plant.

Other minor projects included:

• Working with project drawings & databases.
• Finding new safety innovations.
• Research into water & energy saving measures for a coal processing plant.

Sedgman has been a very good company to work for. Within my first week of working there, I had a free trip to dreamworld, and every friday afternoon there is always a social event at club Sedgman.
