Delivery of a silencer for a cogeneration plant

Details

Published: 04 March 2018

In a cogeneration plant with combustion engines, electricity and heat (often intended for a heating application) are produced simultaneously, by the means of a heat transfer involving the exhaust gases (at high temperature) and an exchanger.

This mode of energy production is often based on high power industrial engines, whose noise emissions are important and must be controlled (by the means of silencers) to preserve the neighborhood of any nuisance e.g. in relation to the emergence of noise...

Discharge silencers for an air separation plant

Details

Published: 28 February 2018

The limitation of noise emissions is a problem that is, fortunately, increasingly taken into account during the construction of industrial sites.

In an air separation plant, the basic components of the atmosphere are separated (by means of various complex manufacturing processes involving in particular cryogenic distillations and heat exchangers) to obtain pure gases: mainly oxygen and nitrogen, secondarily rare inert gases such as argon.

These distillation products are widely used in various...

Prevention of noise pollution in an industrial site and nearby

Details

Published: 22 January 2018

An industrial site involves machines and facilities that contribute not only to the production of capital goods or energy, but also to the production of noise.

In some industries, an observable trend (among others) is the deployment of capacities with power per unit significantly increased, which is often accompanied by higher noise emissions.

Indeed, in many cases, the sound emission is an increasing function of the power (e.g. mechanical or electrical) of an equipment or a facility.

Thus...
