PEA tariff schedule (May 2023 onward, still current) filed under
docs/finance/pea/; Ft 0.1623 THB/kWh for Sep-Dec 2026 from the PEA Ft page.
The plant falls under Schedule 3.2.2 (Medium General Service, TOU, 22 kV).
New section in sustainability.md: blended ~3.81 THB/kWh for two-shift
production plus 132.93 THB/kW demand charge; electric steam ~4.7M-5.5M
THB/yr at maturity against ~0.35M-0.8M of biomass fuel; self-consumed PV
worth ~3.7 THB/kWh (~4.5-7 yr payback); solar thermal not recommended;
the battery earns little from TOU arbitrage or peak shaving. biomass.md,
scale.md, the utilities CSV note and the README follow.
docs/equipment/pheenix-alpha/: the four Pheenix Alpha electroforming flyers
(2024: PASU silvering, PPPU pre-plating, PDPU dual-cell plating, PMPB
passivation bench), renamed from their download hashes.
docs/equipment/sibert/: the VSP, VSF and VSC technical specifications
(2021), plus Sibert's 2008-09 optical-disc SPS literature and the 2008
Blu-ray stamper characteristics paper in sps-optical-disc-2009/. Two
byte-identical duplicates in the download were dropped.
New docs/equipment/galvanics.md, the metal-path counterpart to
pressing-line.md: datasheet tables for both ranges and what they change.
Pheenix is a second turnkey galvanics vendor next to Digital Matrix and
can quote lacquer-to-record as one vendor; neither range includes water
treatment. Utilities from the sheets (~27 kVA connected per line, DI water,
12-20 C cooling water, extraction sizes), ~5.6 m2 of footprint, and a cell
count estimate (one PDPU at the low end, two at the high end). The Sibert
machines are single-phase, 200/250/600 kg on castors, centre manually and
list no data interface; the VSC locates on the punched hole; the finisher's
water carries nickel. Weights, cycle times, prices and mould fit are listed
as quote questions.
Backlinks and small updates: README (bullet, layout tree, vendor list),
roadmap items 6 and 23, vendor landscape, supplier map, exhibitor briefing
(on-file notes, Sibert three-phase question answered), digital factory
(Pheenix PLC data, Sibert data question, RFQ clause 5), quality automation
(hardness on the centre slug, BD paper as the acceptance-spec model),
sustainability (finisher water), total investment block label (numbers
unchanged), scale (galvanics feeder note), crane weight table, process
flow, pressing-line stamper-fit question, plant page detail lines.
The project has a standing style rule against em dashes that was missed
when these docs were written. This removes the 42 occurrences where the
substitution is mechanical and cannot change meaning:
- table cells using an em dash as a placeholder, now a hyphen
- em dashes immediately followed by a conjunction or subordinator
(but, and, or, so, though, while, which, where, because, since),
where a comma is simply correct
115 remain. Those join independent clauses, where a comma would create a
splice and a colon often reads wrong, so each needs a judgement call
rather than a pattern. A blanket regex over them was attempted and
reverted: it produced double colons and broken sentences.
Models the plot and everything on it in FreeCAD, and writes up the
decisions the modelling forced.
Parcel geometry is traced from the DOL LandsMaps cadastral polygon and
reconciled against that portal's own measured edge lengths (40.86 + 26.61
/ 166.81 / 42.48 + 14.94 / 152.46 m), which the trace reproduces to within
about 1% with 1.67 m of closure error over a 444 m perimeter. Note the
mapped extent comes out near 9,570 sqm against a deed area of 8,266 sqm,
a ~16% gap that needs a surveyor before any offer.
On the site: 60x25 m production building on a 10 degree monopitch, a
45x38 m phase-2 building, roof and carport PV, fire and raw water tanks,
a detached boiler/chiller utility yard, perimeter wall and gate, guard
house, roofed staff parking, and the loading and fire-access roads.
Docs:
- scale.md: expansion headroom for a second building, and the detached
utility yard, which frees ~126 sqm inside the main shed
- sustainability.md: roof orientation study (rotating the building for
solar gains under 1 point and costs 4 m of clearance, so it stays
aligned to the plot), and a new water supply section
- facility-security.md: fire water supply behind the existing
suppression design
Figures marked as estimates are planning-grade, not engineering
calculations; the PV module spec is a generic placeholder, and zoning for
factory use on this plot is still unverified.
Press cooling return (60 C) feeds heat pump into boiler feedwater; waste
heat runs label oven and HVAC dehumid reheat; solar thermal preheat;
steam accumulator; boiler does only the final lift. Heat pumps for the
final 180 C steam and ground-source in tropical Thailand both ruled out
with reasoning; northern Thailand LPG tank context documented
