This paper discusses an energy efficient compressed air system at an industrial automation components manufacturing facility. The authors performed and energy assessment as part of the DOE’s Industrial Assessment Center program and followed up with additional investigations on the compressed air system. The compressed air system utilizes an outlet pressure transducer to a microcontroller to adj...

In recent years, energy engineers have examined industrial compressed air systems looking for opportunities to reduce the energy consumption, which in turn leads to operating cost savings. After identifying possible actions that might lead to a reduction in energy usage, it is necessary to perform an analysis to determine the projected energy and cost savings, and to estimate the cost of implem...

Abstract: The compressed air energy storage (CAES) system, considered as one method for peaking shaving and load-levelling of the electricity system, has excellent characteristics of energy storage and utilization. However, due to the waste heat existing in compressed air during the charge stage and exhaust gas during the discharge stage, the efficient operation of the conventional CAES system ...
