Energy, Exergy, and Emission Analysis on Industrial Air Compressors


 Air compressors, a key fluid power technology, play an essential role in industrial plants and office buildings, hospitals, and other types of facilities. The efficient use of the air compressor is crucial. By controlling unnecessary inefficiencies, high energy consumption can be reduced. This study aims to provide energy and exergy analysis on air compressors for different industries. Detailed case studies were also analyzed. The case study focuses on the energy and exergy analyses of the compressed air system of foundry industries. The results indicate that applying the six improvement recommendations yields significant amounts of energy and cost savings and significant improvements in the system's overall performance. The payback periods for different recommendations are economically feasible and worthwhile to use. The suggested improvement methods can provide cost savings with a low payback period.
