When most people talk about saving compressed air they stop after fixing compressed air leaks. Some may talk about changing an air blowing application, but there are so many more ways to save compressed air, particularly on the demand side.

 

This webinar discussed the theory, tools and some practical applications to help identify, evaluate and implement compressed air saving projects. Topics covered will include:


  • The Six Savings Methods including the 3 types of Artificial Demand. This is the core insight needed for compressed air savings projects. There are analogies for other energy systems as well.

  • The "Dirty Thirty" and "Strangled Six". Where are they in a compressed air system? What is their impact on production equipment, the wider compressed air system and how much power the air compressors use.


Presenters for this webinar:

Murray Nottle

Mechanical Engineer 


Murray Nottle from The Carnot Group explores the Six Savings Methods for reducing compressed air demand, including managing excess pressure, improving equipment efficiency and reusing air. Real-world case studies demonstrate opportunities to reduce energy costs and improve industrial productivity.



Alan Pears

Technical Innovation Advisor


Alan Pears from A2EP explores compressed air optimisation and smarter alternatives, highlighting how electric technologies, improved monitoring and digitalisation can reduce energy costs, improve productivity and deliver greater operational efficiency.
