Abstract

ABSTRACT Industrial ventilation is the key to providing a suitable working environment for employees, and it assists in maintaining safety operation of different processes in an industrial facility. In many cases, energy conservation in industrial ventilation is one of the overlooked areas, yet it may present some low cost/quick payback energy reduction opportunities. This article discusses energy conservation opportunities in industrial ventilation systems. The opportunities discussed in the article are energy optimization in make-up air units by proper space temperature control, air balancing between make-up air and exhaust air system to optimize energy, application of proper insulation, etc. Each opportunity is discussed by taking specific examples from energy audits carried out at small and mid-sized industries in Toronto, Canada.
