Descripción
Sanergy is a social enterprise based in Nairobi, Kenya, that safely collects and treats 12,000 tons of waste, converting it into valuable products: insect-based proteins derived from black soldier flies for animal feed, organic fertilizer, and biomass fuel briquettes. This model provides a closed-loop, zero-waste solution that ensures waste is transformed into high-quality sustainable products. We are in the process of scaling up our production of insect-based animal protein to convert roughly 70,000 tons per year of organic waste into 3,600 tons of animal feed through the construction of a new advanced facility. Sanergy is a devoted Autodesk user, and this massive construction project provided an opportunity to capitalize on the power of BIM 360 software. In this session, we will review the training given by third-party providers via the Autodesk Foundation, the challenges faced when rolling out a new technology-based way of working in construction within the context of an African country, and the benefits achieved.

William KemoliI am a Civil/Structural Engineer by training. I have experience with Civil/Structural Design as well as with practical site work. My experience has been strongly focused on Construction, Project Management, Engineering and BIM applications such as Revit, ROBOT, Advance Steel, Civil 3D and AutoCAD. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), Kenya. My studies provided me with a strong background in structural design, civil works design and water & sanitation. One of the key recurring themes in engineering is providing solutions that balance functionality and affordability. Incorporating this into my quest to improve livelihoods was the central focus of my thesis during my senior year at JKUAT. Upon finishing my studies, I worked for 3 years for a design & build company running a construction project in Mombasa, along the Kenyan coast. I now work at Sanergy, a social enterprise focusing on solving the sanitation and waste management problems in slums, which I joined more than 2 years ago. I am the Lead Civil Engineer, leading the design and implementation of a new factory that processes organic waste streams. This involved the conceptual, scheme and detailed design of the facility and taking this all the way to practical implementation. I am proud of the work we are doing and excited to see the new factory complete as its success will see provision of access to safe sanitation for many low-income communities in Kenya. At Sanergy, I got to explore the powerful tools available thanks to our partnership with Autodesk Foundation in regards to BIM implementation and integration. In particular, I use Revit, Analysis in Autodesk Robot and subsequent implementation and project management using BIM360. In my spare time, I am an amateur musician. I play the piano and hold a distinction in ABRSM Grade 8 Piano exams (an internationally administered graded exam for music from the UK).
