Reducing Compressed Air Loss and Energy Costs

The Challenge
The compressed air system had not been audited in 12–15 years, creating an opportunity to identify air losses and improve system efficiency. 

The Solution
We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the compressed air system, identifying leaks and opportunities to improve components, system design and distribution. 

The Results

  • 937 compressed air leaks identified
  • 297.7 SCFM of estimated air loss
  • $37,559 in estimated annual energy costs associated with identified leaks
  • 80% of air loss attributed to large and extra-large leaks

The Outcome
They received a prioritized roadmap for repairs and system improvements, creating opportunities to reduce air loss and energy costs while improving system reliability and performance. Additional opportunities were identified for leak detection, training and system optimization.

Improving Grab Sample System Reliability

The Challenge
60 grab sample stations needed be assessed to identify opportunities to improve reliability, sample integrity and ease of operation.

The Solution
An on-site evaluation assessed gas, liquid and volatile liquid sampling applications against recognized industry best practices. Findings were documented and prioritized for corrective action.

The Results

  • 60 stations evaluated
  • 3 stations identified as fit for purpose
  • 9 stations requiring minor repairs
  • 5 stations recommended for reconfiguration or replacement

The Outcome
The assessment provided a prioritized roadmap for corrective maintenance and future improvements, helping direct resources toward the sampling systems with the greatest opportunities to improve reliability, sample integrity and long-term performance.
