Compressed Air Best Practices - March 2009 - (Page 6) ® | 03/09 Columns ENERGY MANAGEMENT | FROM THE EDITOR Energy Management In this edition, we have published four different system assessment reports done in industrial facilities. The first is supplied by Mr. Don Wirth of Tencarva Machinery, and it explores the actions taken to solve pressure problems in a facility. The second is about an electroplating company, which was able to save 1,631,000 kW/h and $153,000 per year due to a compressed air system assessment done by the engineers at Scales Industrial Technologies. In the third, Mr. Thomas Mort continues his enlightening series of articles with “HVAC Optimization,” one of the larger opportunities for energy savings in most facilities. The article reviews how to reduce costs and energy for heating and air conditioning by improved control of exhaust air. kW CO2 O The electroplating company saved $153,000 and 1,631,000 kW/h per year in energy costs. The appropriate sizing of point-of-use pneumatics, air preparation, piping and storage is one of the less understood topics out there. It is very common to find that these components are creating pressure drops and causing plants to operate at higher compressed air pressures. Worse, pressure losses cause production machinery to operate at less than optimal conditions. In the fourth system assessment report, Mr. Frank Moskowitz shares with us valuable techniques to calculate the sizing of these components to prevent pressure losses at production equipment. Finally, Mr. Wayne Perry shares interesting information on what ISO is doing with Energy Management Standards through an interview with ISO Secretary-General Rob Steele. We hope you enjoy this edition and thank you again for your support and for investing in industrial energy efficiency.
