Abstract
Obtaining pressurized air represents a significant expenditure of energy for every branch of industry, and today it is simply unthinkable to exist? industrial plants without the production, distribution and use of pressurized air. This is particularly representative in the wood processing industry in which there are great opportunities for savings that can be made with the produced air under pressure, starting from its proper use to the monitoring of the equipment during exploitation and the implementation of preventive maintenance measures. Bearing the above in mind, research was carried out in companies of the wood industry in Serbia in order to analyze the economics of obtaining and adequate use of pres?surized air. In addition to the data on the type of compressor plants, the survey also obtained data on: the type of pressurized air storage tank, the correct use of the air preparation group, the existing automation for plant operation, preventive maintenance measures, leakage control and prevention, and employee training. The conclusions were drawn in the form of guidelines for the rational use of pressurized air, which can bring significant savings in energy consumption and increase efficiency and productivity in work.
