Chapter II
RATIONALE

The motivation in plant visit is to emphasize students in order to become aware of the existing industry here in the Philippines and one of them is Enertech System Industries Inc. It is very exciting and fun yet you can gain a lot of knowledge in this kind of activities. Most students nowadays are not engaging this kind of educational activities. They are not intend to explore the hidden power plants here in the Philippines that not only producing locally but also internationally. Enertech System Industries are exporting abroad in countries like Malaysia, Thailand and many more. Enertech System Industries usually produce high quality broilers that produce steam that are necessary or essential to hospital, building and so on. It is better to educate students in this kind of activity specially who took up industrial management courses and entrepreneurial management in order to be familiarize what kind of industry we have. The plant is located at Marilao, Bulacan in a 3 hectare property. It is founded by Engr. Guillermo C. Simeon because of highly demand for broilers. Unlike the leading maker of broilers like Japan, United States and European countries, broilers that made in Enertech is more cheaper than the leading manufacturing countries that’s why our neighboring countries order their broilers here in the Philippines. It is a good investment here in our country because it allows to generate our Gross Domestic Product and to attract foreign investors to invest here in our country, if there is a huge number of foreign investors who invest their money here in our land, we can be a tiger economy someday. We also encounter different kinds of technician working in the company with the different tasks to do. In that matter we are able to learn by observation, the kinds of skills they have and how do they perform their specific task.

Chapter III
OBJECTIVES

The objective of the site visits is to explore and understand practical, economically viable, scalable and sustainable industrial plants and to advance and promote the importance of the sustainable development and management of the industrial plant. The plant tour has a great impact for students. An initial visit to the plant provides the design team with the opportunity to inspect the plant site and to meet the project contact and other personnel that will be involved in the project. The plant visit allows the team to personally examine the sponsor's physical plant and facilities, to further define and clarify the scope of the design problem through discussions with the project contact, to obtain available background information on the company and the project, including previous attempts to solve the problem, before formulating an approach to the problem, to learn what the sponsor expects from the team and the project, and to identify the specific objectives of the design project. All the students must enter to the industrial power plant in order to observe what the task does inside and to determine the different kind of skills the technician applied. Students must identify different practices and policies that is being implemented inside. The plant visit encourages student to distinguished proper management that is being implemented inside the company and to be able to identify some hazards that can cause accidents to an employees. This kind of educational tour is very significant to students in order to expose us in the industry were we can belong someday. This serve as a perfect guide and to attain more knowledge not only inside the campus but also outside of it. Enertech is a dominant company because it produces high quality broilers and exported it to the neighboring countries. Because of high demand for broilers they are producing more cheaper broilers compare to the other broiler company so therefore we can compete to the dominating countries in terms of quality and efficiency of broilers.
Chapter IV
SUMMARY and CONTENT

The Enertech Global plant and corporate office is situated in a 3-hectare property along Technology Road in Prenza II, Marilao, Bulacan. It can accommodate a maximum monthly capacity of 500 tons in its production line for various sizes of boilers, pressure vessels, and boiler accessories. It houses Enertech's state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities from computerized plate bender/roller, plate cutting and fan balancing; submerge arc welding machine. its BIOMASS BOILER fueled with coco shell, rice hull and other agricultural wastes have helped many industrial plants to significantly reduce their steam costs while increasing their potential profits. The company has been manufacturing biomass boiler since 1989. Enertech Systems Industries, Inc. impressive list of diverse and satisfied customers includes the biggest names in multiple Philippine industries as well as in many countries in Asia and Australia. The Enertech Biomass-Fired Combi Boiler is the ideal alternative to the high-operating-cost of oil and gas-fired boilers. In areas where biomass fuels, such as agricultural wastes are available, biomass fuels are excellent alternative to lower fuel costs derived from fossil fuel such as diesel, bunker oil and LPG. With its multi-cyclone dust collector, induced draft fan, wet scrubber and ash conveyor, the Enertech Biomass Boiler eliminates fuel residues and particulates which are harmful to human health and the environment. They are producing cheaper broilers compare to their competitors that’s why many countries are buying their broilers of enertech other than competitors. Through continuous innovation, Enertech never cease an opportunity to capitalize on its team's creativity and quest for excellence. The diversified and impressive list of diverse and satisfied customers includes the biggest names in multiple Philippine industries. Among these are San Miguel Corporation, URC, Jollibee, Coca-Cola, Unilab, Shangri-La hotels, Proctor and Gamble, to name a few. Their continuous patronage is a testament to the reliability and performance of our products

Chapter v
REACTION
The plant tour is significant for us student because we are exposed to industry usually a big industry because their customers are not only here in the Philippines but also abroad. I gain more knowledge on broilers on how do they made it and how do they transform metal sheet into a world class broilers. Educational plant tour is necessary for students to acquire more knowledge based on the actual performance. I also observed different skills that their technician did during their working hours. The implication for our economy of this kind of industry is significant because we not importing broilers anymore to other country which is more expensive than the broilers of enertech. Broilers are important to industry, that’s why we are lucky enough to have a plant of broilers here in the Philippines, and also it attract foreign investors to invest their money here in our country.

Although as I seen that enertech has many considerations to follow but still they can generate and operate well providing their customers demand. By studying Industrial Management I open up my mind through this plant tour on how people work inside a world class plant of broilers. Although I seen a lot of improvements to apply like proper wearing of PPE’s and proper material and equipment handling. I gain more knowledge on how simple metal sheets are cut and molded and form high class broilers, not only for the construction of broilers but also how it operates. Enertech producing different kind of broilers and one of them is combi broilers which produces biomass fuel.

Chapter VI
CONCLUSION

I therefore conclude that the plant tour is very educational for us students taking industrial management course. I learn a lot of things based on that plant visit. Enertech System Industries Incorporated is global competitive company because they are exporting their product in our neighboring countries.

An initial visit to the plant provides the students with the opportunity to inspect the plant site and to meet the project contact and other personnel that will be involved. Although Enertech System Industries Corporation is not as high technology as other competitors but they are cascading for more improvements regarding to their company. As I observed there are a lot more improvements to be done inside the plant especially on proper storage of the materials and Wearing of personal protective equipment. Those little things can contribute a lot for the company and it is better to work in safe and clean area.

Enertech System Industries Inc. can be more innovative. Enertech System Industries Inc. believe in the efficient delivery of goods and services for our individual growth, our family, community, and the country's economy, through the pursuit of the production of world-class quality boilers and allied products for the Asia market at competitive price, while providing dependable service back-up organization with readily available spare parts to maintain an optimum level of customer satisfaction. It also delivers a good output to our economy for delivering a high quality boilers, it attracts foreign investors to invest here in our country and as a result better our economy will rise and readily to compete on other countries. It also proves that the Filipinos can compete through big countries. The demand of their boilers is speeding up because the price of their boiler is cheaper than others. Their boiler is also an environmental friendly because the Enertech Biomass Boiler eliminates fuel residues and particulates which are harmful to human health and the environment, with its multi-cyclone dust collector, induced draft fan,
Chapter VII
RECOMMENDATION
Enertech Industries System Inc. is a huge company that produces high quality broilers and delivering not only in the Philippines but also on other countries. As I observed while inside the plant there are many risk that their employees may encounter while they are operating or doing their specific tasks or work The first thing to consider is not proper wearing of Personal Protective Equipment, Not proper wearing of PPE can cause excessive injuries so I recommend for the company to supply not only one worker but all of the employees who are working inside the plant. PPE is equipment that will protect the user against health or safety risks at work. It can include items such as safety helmets, gloves, eye protection, high-visibility clothing, safety footwear and safety harnesses. Making the workplace safe includes providing instructions, procedures, training and supervision to encourage people to work safely and responsibly. Even where engineering controls and safe systems of work have been applied, some hazards might remain. Officer in charge must never allow exemptions from wearing PPE for those jobs that ‘only take a few minutes, because accidents can fall to a second or a glimpse of an eye. PPE must be properly looked after and stored when not in use, eg in a dry, clean cupboard. If it is reusable it must be cleaned and kept in good condition

The second thing that I observed is not proper storage of materials. Some hazard might be exposed while working inside the area. This might include sharp edges that may cause injuries to the part of the worker. I recommend to secure all the materials to use, place them in the appropriate storage so that risks may be lessen. The importance of proper material handling is that it Eliminate accidents. If good materials handling is applied, accidents can be prevented and eliminated as this means proper and careful handling is performed. Reduce stress and effort. Through good materials handling, stress and effort can be minimized. If you are handling materials the right away and you are eliminating all the factors that would make material handling a risky and challenging such as a non-functional equipment, ineffective workers, etc., then materials handling would be a stress-free process.

The third thing that I might recommend is that proper signage of the area, safety Signs and Signals are one of the main means of communicating health and safety information. Traditional signboards, such as prohibition and warning signs, signs for fire exits, Fire Action Plan notices and fire-fighting equipment are also considered to be Safety Signs. Safety signs must be placed visible to the workers.

The fourth thing I might recommend is to impose or place a safety lane for the workers, safety lanes are important because it may reduce the risks of employees, by walking in the safety lanes you are ensure not to be contacted an any hazards on the working area especially sharp edges, or scrap metal sheets that can cause severe injuries.

The fifth thing that I might recommend is that installation of fire extinguisher or smoke detector, fire extinguisher is very necessary to prevent excessive spreading of fire inside the area as well as smoke detector or smoke alarm to give signal to the worker if there is existing or falling case of fire.

...Plant tour I had an opportunity to visit US Foods Services Distribution Center. One of the leading retail supply chain operation business in the United States. During my tour, directed by Mr. McCollum, the operation manager for the distribution center; I was able to see how products are received, stored, and built onto pallets that are shipped to grocery shops and restaurants. Since most of the questions could not be answered, I focused my information based on observation. The strength of this paper is based on the organization’s operation process and the quality. The Process The first thing I noticed when arriving at the site was, a numerous amount of machinery moving from different directions each carrying well-wrapped pallets of products. Our first stop was the inbound dock, the area where the company receives all new products for the dry department before they are placed into storage sections. The company also has a freezer, produce, and perishable departments. The process in the dry department seems to move faster because, this section of the warehouse is equipped with a witron’s OrderPicking Machinery; a highly automated system for selecting and palletizing cartons. Once products arrive, the receiving clerks process each product by comparing the quantity received versus the amount requested, register the expiration date for each case, assign a storage location, then assign barcode numbers to help track products once in the storage area.

BAM IM 4L E October 12, 2013 PLANT TOUR 2013 (Villar Foundation, Hino, and Gardenia) I. INTRODUCTION Plant tour is define as a visit to a place (such as museum, warehouses, factory, etc.) that is made by the school or professors for their students to learn about something. Plant visit allows students to build a better understanding of a site’s or plant’s performance potential; to assess a competitor, to communicate the company’s performance, strategy, and current challenges. Even people who know that plant tours are valuable can find it difficult to put them to effective use. First, unclear objectives often turn touring into tourism. If visitors don’t know why they are taking a tour and what they hope to accomplish on it, they won’t know where to focus their time and effort. Second, many people lack an organizing framework to structure observations and accelerate learning. Without such a framework, the myriad observations made during a tour cannot easily weave together and will not readily yield general conclusions. Third, information about plants and how to tour them is inevitably comparative; and those who have seen more, see more. Inexperience makes it difficult for younger, students in particular to make it the most of a tour, since they are still building the knowledge...

The brewery consist of manufacturing, sales, and marketing departments which includes approximately 170 employees. The facility is about 50,000 square feet consisting of production, retail, event, and office space. They supply their beer to men and women of the legal drinking age in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario. Steam Whistle uses a hybrid manufacturing process, producing approximately 88,000 bottles per day. They are working at integrating many green initiatives such as using all natural ingredients, reusing bottles and elements from the packaging line, and reducing paper usage in the office. Steam Whistle specializes in the “art” of beer creation by utilizing an integrated facility of both human labour and machine processing. In various aspects of the brewing process Steam Whistle is evidently applying a large dependence on the human labour which may not always be profitable in the long run. As discussed throughout the course, human capital in operations is essential for running a business smoothly but under differentiated circumstances, human labour can be considered a liability for a business.

...Introduction Du Nord Craft Spirits is a micro distillery started in 2013 and located in south Minneapolis. They produce and sell two products currently: gin and vodka, with future plans to add apple whiskey and bourbon to the list of offerings. They also operate a cocktail room adjacent to their distillery, which is open to the public several times a week for tours. We attended a public tour and was able to speak with the co-owner and head distiller after the tour. Process Selection / Manufacturing Strategies and Process Flow Analysis Du Nord produces its spirits in a batch flow process. Each batch of the product travels from one step to the next. Du Nord Craft Spirits begin with Minnesota grown products such as corn, beet sugar and rye. The initial ingredients are combined in the cold mash process then transferred to large vats to ferment. Once fermented the mixture is transferred to the still for processing. The final product emerges after 15-30 days depending on whether they are producing gin or vodka. Du Nord also bottles, labels, and packages their products. Du Nord’s order fulfillment most closely resembles the made-to-stock approach. Their made-to-stock approach is building inventory that is not made for any one particular customer. While Du Nord does not hold inventory at the distillery they do produce batches for their distributor. They are constantly producing either gin or vodka for the continuous demand of their distributor. Du Nord Craft Spirits’ product...

There are a lot of youth who have never even seen a true forest ever, because their stuck in a city that contains nothing of that sort. The lack of outdoor activity within the world we live in today is actually affecting the health within youth, as well as creating improper judgement for certain situations; especially survival situations such as being lost in a forest or even ingesting as well as coming in contact with poisonous plants and animals that should not be touched. They are even unprepared for the mildest of survival situations. Also, without proper guidance and involvement outdoors, youth will not be able to discover why pollution is bad as well as why animals should not be disturbed or hurt on their own land.

It is taking up the land they are living on and the ground they find food on. They closed the oil drilling in 1989 due to the oil spill in the Prudhoe Bay. A lot of animals were killing with the oil spilled. They are to help the animals in the Prudhoe Bay area. The Yucca Mountain was the first commercial power plant it gives off nuclear waste. They have done many of studies on Yucca Mountain to make sure the site is safe. With the earthquakes and volcanic it can make the nuclear waste come out. The Three Gorges Dam was needed to be done to save people’s lives. People have drought and floods from the waters. The toxic in the water is what will make it hard to make the Dam. The waterborne diseases and human and animals wastes in the water. They will have to move from the area the build it. The one thing is we could save money by doing our own oil. The thing is when we have oil spill it hurts the animal and gets in our water. We would have to find away the make it work to not do that. We make more jobs too. We would not have to spend so much on gas and oil if you would drill the oil in the US. We have enough in the US to have.
