Chemical Engineering Intern
Kuala Lumpur

Summary

Chemical Engineering Intern supporting 9+ test methods per project cycle in effluent treatment, R&D physical testing, and chemical inventory control for 5–10 effluent batches per week in a textile processing plant, while seeking experience in process optimization of mass transfer and separation units and increasing knowledge in quality assurance of products from downstream processes. Applies COD, BOD, TSS, and pH monitoring, jar testing, and root cause analysis to improve discharge compliance and reduce fabric defects. Strengthens operating procedures by documenting chemical recipes, safety controls, and process findings.

Work History

Chemical Engineering Intern

TUSUKA PROCESSING LIMITED
02.2026 - 05.2026
  • Provided technical support across denim washing, R&D physical testing, and industrial wastewater treatment operations. Applied chemical engineering principles to optimize formulations, troubleshoot manufacturing defects, and manage environmental compliance in a high-volume textile processing facility.
  • Monitored and optimized effluent parameters (COD, BOD, TSS, pH) using spectrophotometry and jar testing, mitigating shock loads from bleaching agents and ensuring discharge compliance.
  • R&D & Technical Reporting (SOS): Executed physical testing protocols (tensile strength, abrasion resistance, color-fastness) and authored Standard Operating Procedures for enzyme washes and chemical recipes.
  • Audited and restructured Chemical Inventory List; corrected hazardous material segregation per NFPA standards and implemented Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) protocols for bulk acid storage and distribution.
  • Analyzed fabric defects with root cause analysis to adjust surface chemistry applications, enhancing first-pass quality yield and minimizing water/energy rework cycles.
