Energy Savings

Most factory managers in Bangladesh know their energy bills have been climbing. Electricity tariffs for large industrial consumers have risen significantly over the past five years — increases that have been steep, predictable, and largely beyond anyone’s control. What is within your control, and what most management teams have not yet confronted, is a different […]

Consider the following situation. You find out you have been using way too much water at home. You discover a leaking gasket and there is water all over your basement. What is your course of action? Of course, it is to fix the leak right away. But what if this happened at your plant? And

Air demand in an industrial compressed air system typically fluctuates. Using these patterns to reduce unloaded running hours is a first step to optimizing energy efficiency. Compressor controllers offer user-friendly ways to reduce unloaded running hours. If there are multiple compressors, then they should have been set up to do this automatically. But if there

Compressed air accounts for a significant part of total energy costs for industrial manufacturers – typically about 12% and may be as high as 40% in some facilities. This means that any compressed air energy savings that are achieved will have a big impact on a factory’s total energy consumption and CO2 emissions As a

The heat generated by compressed air systems can be a very good source of energy savings. In fact, 100 percent of the electrical energy used by an industrial air compressor is converted into heat. 96 percent of this heat can be recovered (the balance remains in the compressed air or radiates from the compressor into

What does the Industrial Internet of Things mean for compressed air? Smarter control for better efficiency and easier compliance reporting. Visit any manufacturing trade show or check out any engineering blog and you won’t be able to miss those three little words seemingly on everyone’s mind and on the tip of everyone’s tongue lately: Internet
