As governments strengthen environmental standards, companies are under increasing pressure to reduce emissions and avoid substantial fines.In this session, industry experts will discuss the latest technologies for monitoring, detecting, and mitigating fugitive emissions. We will highlight the importance of proper record-keeping, which ensures your organisation meets regulatory requirements and is well-prepared for future audits and inspections.
Recording and Presentation will only be available for Registered Participants
Reynhard Heymans, as a young electrical engineer, was introduced to Thermal Imaging Cameras in 1997 by the legendary Tjaart Broodryk.
Over the subsequent 18 years, his ardor for Condition Based Maintenance became evident through its diverse applications, encompassing electrical, mechanical, refractory, enterprise risk management, and more. In 2016, he earned a Masters Degree in Business Administration, strategically positioning himself for a transition into New Business Development. Throughout his career evolution, he has maintained valuable partnerships with prominent Global OEM companies like Atten2, Teledyne FLIR, FLUKE Reliability, and other. Even after more than 25 years, Reynhard Heymans continues to be driven by a passion for pioneering tools and methodologies aimed at enhancing overall equipment effectiveness and reducing operational costs for his clients.
Johan Janse van Vuuren is an accomplished Registered Engineering Technician registered with (ECSA) with a career spanning over three decades in electrical maintenance and thermography. His journey began as an apprentice in the gold mines of South Africa, where he honed his skills in electrical and mechanical disciplines. In 1992, Johan earned his National Diploma in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, solidifying his expertise in the field.
Driven by a passion for continuous learning, Johan furthered his education by completing the Middle Management Programme at Northwest University in Vanderbijlpark. His career took an exciting turn when he was introduced to thermography, a cutting-edge field that uses infrared technology and gas detection to detect issues in electrical, mechanical, and petrochemical facilities. As a certified Level III Thermographer (ITC & ISO 18436-7), Johan became a pioneer in the use of GasfindIR (OGI) cameras in South Africa. In 2007, he became the first technician in the country trained to use and sell these advanced cameras, which play a crucial role in reducing VOC emissions and enhancing predictive maintenance programs.
Johan joined Yellotec in 2007, where he serves as a Sales Engineer and a key trainer for Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) gas detection courses. His expertise, dedication, and leadership in the field have made him a trusted figure in the application of thermography technology for maintenance in various industries, including electrical, mechanical, and petrochemical sectors.
