Energy Efficient Compressed Air Production System
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compressed air is often referred to as the fourth utility. We all know
the generation of compressed air consumes energy but at the same time
the compressor and downstream components are often neglected, which
means there are significant savings to be made. It is suggested that
savings of around 33 % on average in a compressed air system are
possible. It follows that cost effective compressed air production is
energy efficient compressed air production, as energy is by far the
biggest lifetime cost factor.Many of the different levers for cost
reduction may be known, but just not applied, due to lack of knowledge
about the financial savings possible. This paper shows and explains the
different ways to efficient compressed air production (leakages,
compressor selection, pressure losses) and gives simple calculation
examples that are easy to follow and to be reproduced in your compressed
air stations.
