Stolt-Nielsen Orders

Tank Cleaning Machines

From Consilium Systems

Consilium Systems AB, Gothen- burg, Sweden, has received an order for 791 newly developed tank clean- ing machines from shipping compa- ny Stolt-Nielsen.

The new Gunclean equipment will be installed on seven Stolt Pride

Class parcel tankers as part of a company ship upgrade program to- maximize vessel utilization rates while in port.

According to Consilium Systems,

Gunclean uses less water than por- table machines, thus minimizing disposal. Additionally, the system's programmed cleaning saves time with nozzles that direct-wash water in prescribed patterns dictated by tank confirguration, which enables simultaneous cleaning at the top, middle and bottom levels of the tank.

To Fund University Of

Washington Scholarship

Art Anderson Associates will fund a scholarship for an electrical engi- neering student next year at the

University of Washington. The $2,000 scholarship will be awarded to a junior majoring in electrical engineering who has expressed in- terest in studying electric power, and provides full tuition for an in- state student. The student will also be offered a co-op work study op- portunity at Art Anderson Asso- ciates sometime before he graduates and will be known as the Art Ander- son Associates Scholar.

Seals For Turbo Pumps
