Inspirational Project Supervisor

This project was "the brain child" of Fareed Ismail. He is a lecturer in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, Bellville Campus.

An inspirational Project Supervisor, he has been able to drive the project this far despite some earlier challenges the project faced. At a time when we(the students) were down in terms of enthusiasm to push the project forward he was there to instill that spirit of "can do it attitude" into us. He was however a bit tough when it  comes to meeting deadlines

Test Run

We tested all our pipelines and system for leakage at the Mechanical Engineering workshop. This was minus the shipping container, solar and wind energy supply. We used ESKOM (AC electricity supply) to power the system.
