Stockton-on-Tees, UK -- As Secretary of the Materials Handling Engineers Association (MHEA) I welcome you to our Bulk08 Technical Awareness Seminar, which continues to be a popular event in the industry's calendar providing an unparalleled opportunity for (i) networking and (ii) discussing the developments, future trends and application opportunities relating to solids handling and processing equipment. The Seminar well be held on April 17-18, 2008, Hilton Blackpool Hotel, UK.
Since I became Secretary of the Association in April 2002 I have seen an exciting growth in Corporate Membership particularly with regard to the process user group members such as ATH Resources, Carron Energy, Corus Research, Development & Technology, Drax Power, E.ON - Power Technology, Powerfuel, RWEnpower, Scottish Power - Longannet, UK Coal and Viridor Waste Management. Our aim is to provide a working link with our process provider group members.
The annual seminar regularly attracts a cross-section of delegates from both user and supplier companies, and has always had strong sponsorship from all branches of the solids handling sector. Last year’s event attracted 108 delegates.
This year’s programme will feature sessions covering Alternative Fuels, Coal, Construction, Pollution Control, Quarrying and Recycling, together with a Plenary Lecture on Cement Production.
MHEA are delighted to have Keith Berryman, Managing Director of Cross London Rail Links Limited to formally open Bulk08. Keith was responsible for the production of the London East West Study for the Strategic Rail Authority, which led to the revival of Crossrail. As a result of this, he was responsible for setting up the joint venture between the SRA and Transport for London to take the project forward. Since then he has led the design of the scheme, latterly taking over as Managing Director.
Keith is a civil engineer and has spent the last 30 years on the design, finance and construction of new railways and other public works. He was project manager for the infrastructure of the Beckton Extension of the Docklands Light Railway and worked on several other major schemes in London. Keith also spent many years working overseas, including highway construction in Nepal and central Africa and 13 years in Hong Kong, including a period advising on finance of major infrastructure projects.
Your attendance at the Seminar will be time well spent - an excellent mix of instructive value and networking opportunities as we complement the sessions with the ever-popular seminar dinner. I look forward to seeing you at the Seminar.
Dr Harold Wright
Secretary, MHEA
