12 Ways to turn your compressor into a sustainable source of energy
- Use the right technology for your application
It is vital that any compressed air system is correctly sized and specified to a site’s demands. Parameters to be considered include operating pressure, volume flow and the required compressed air quality according to ISO8573-1:2010.
- Eco-friendly technologies
Manufacturers are under increased pressure to ‘do more with less’ and reduce waste. Therefore it is essential for operators to choose sustainable compressed air solutions that use innovative methods to reduce waste. For example, the CompAir DH series of air compressors feature a high efficiency water purification system. This tried and tested reverse osmosis filtration provides high quality purified water to lubricate, seal and cool the compression process. Using a permeate pump the water required is reduced to a minimum.
- The complete package.
Compromises should not be made on downstream equipment, such as dryers, as these products are a key means of ensuring the quality and efficiency of the whole system and therefore reducing the cost to the environment. Designed and manufactured at our dedicated air treatment sites, CompAir’s new air treatment solutions are quality controlled to the highest standards, while optimising logistics and therefore CO2 emissions. This also means customers benefit from faster product lead times.
