Marine engine silencers
- Details
Among the projects relating to noise limitation, the elimination of the noise emitted by marine engines is quite challenging namely due to space and weight limitation generally imposed for boats, what involves a certain complexity for the selection of industrial soundproofing devices like exhaust silencers for propulsion engines and gensets.
Such noise sources must be mitigated to allow day to day work of staff in conditions being acceptable and to allow the stay of passengers to...
Oil and gas : soundproofing with ITS
- Details
Refining, natural gas liquefaction and power generation for oil and gas industry often involve combustion turbines with an output above 40 MW.
In such cases, the combustion turbine itself, a gas fuel module and a water injection module are powerful noise sources of which the impact must be limited to protect workers in the power plant and neighbors as well.
Noise barriers walls and sound enclosures (both: with a steel structure able to withstand high loads due to wind and snow and seismic load...
Mufflers for high temperature fluid
- Details
Industrial heat engines require the use of mufflers for high-temperature fluid, since their exhaust, which typically exceeds 425 degrees C and can reach 550 degrees C, is a noise source that must be treated to prevent sound pollution in the environment.
For such applications, reactive mufflers or silencers (i.e. devices whose principle is based on the reflection of acoustic waves in relation to changes in the internal geometry of the ducts, perforated or not, guiding the flow) are...
