Noise reduction of an industrial chimney (stack)
- Details
An industrial chimney (aka stack) can constitute a source of very powerful noise potentially causing noise pollution for the environment, near or far, a fortiori if it is very high.
In the case of hot gases, the exhaust of gas turbines or combustion engines is often the source of a noise which, if not sufficiently attenuated by the components of the network, is present at the outlet of the chimney (stack) in an undesirable manner.
Hot or cold, gas flows are also often vented to the...
Soundproofing of a company restaurant
- Details
Whether it is a pleasure meal in a friendly or family context, or whether it is to take a break and regain strength e.g. in a working context, a moment spent in a restaurant does not deliver all its promises if the acoustic environment is not up to par.
Indeed, if such a place has not been the subject of sufficient precautions with regard to the problems of soundproofing, a sound overbid occurs there often, which is due to the fact that each raises the voice to try to be heard...
Acoustic insulation of a power station
- Details
In a power station, e.g. with one or more combustion turbines and one or more generators, noise is emitted, which could, if not heeded, deprive the residents of their tranquility and be a nuisance for the working conditions of the plant's employees.
Consideration should therefore be given to works to limit the noise impact of such installations.
The construction of buildings with high acoustic performance housing the incriminated noise sources is of course an appropriate solution, but it...
