Optimize Industrial Utility Efficiency with Compressed Air Best Practices®
Compressed Air Best Practices® is a technical magazine dedicated to discovering Energy Savings in compressed air systems — estimated by the U.S. Department of Energy to represent 30% of industrial energy use. Each edition outlines Best Practice System Assessments for industrial compressed air users — particularly those managing energy costs in multi-factory companies.
“ We had three 900 hp air compressors. A big part of the reduction was getting the right air compressors in place.”
– Bob Nelson, Engineering Manager, Ball Corporation, Saratoga Springs (NY) Facility (feature article in March 2017 Issue).
“We performed a compressed air leak survey at a refinery identifying 1,726 leaks resulting in 13,324 cfm of lost air to leakage.”
– James Nipper, Vice President, Petro Chemical Energy (feature article in May 2017 Issue).
“Demand Side” and “Supply Side” information on compressed air technologies and system assessments is delivered to readers to help them save energy. For this reason, we feature Best Practice articles on when/how to correctly apply air compressor, air treatment, piping, storage, measurement and pneumatic control technology.
Industrial energy managers, utility incentive program managers, and technology/system assessment providers are the three stakeholders in creating energy efficiency projects. Representatives of these readership groups guide our editorial content.
“ The membrane dryers are able to drop the pressure dew point to -121 ºF (-85 ºC) for the laboratory.”– From April 2017 feature article; “NMR Spectroscopy Lab Requires a -112 ºF Dew Point and Pure Nitrogen.”

WEBINARSCompressed Air Best Practices® Webinars effectively teach how to optimize their compressed air systems. The Webinars average 300 Registrants with 50% attending. Expert speakers educate end users and sales channel personnel on Best Practices. Webinar sponsors also present and receive the full contact information of all Webinar registrants.

Join Keynote Speaker, Tim Dugan, President and Principal Engineer of Compression Engineering Corporation to examine when it is appropriate to install a variable speed drive air compressor. Manufacturing scenarios and environments with differing demand profiles will be analyzed to determine the energy-savings potential of a VSD air compressor in a compressed air system.
Our first Sponsor Speaker is Steve Bruno, Product Marketing Manager for Atlas Copco. His presentation is titled, “Proper Sizing of VSD Compressors”. Techniques and knowledge will be shared on how to properly size a VSD air compressor to supply the fluctuating load. The presentation will also discuss how to monitor energy usage and specific power.
Our second Sponsor Speaker is Pascal van Putten, CEO of VPInstruments. His presentation is titled, “Air Flow Consumption Fingerprint.” The “consumption fingerprint” is a different approach to selecting the right air compressor configuration, based on flow measurements and statistical histogram data. He will show the value of histograms in optimization projects.

Mr. Rhoten served as the
President of Hope Air
Systems for 40 years and
remains active as a Senior
Project Engineer designing
compressed air systems for
the plastics industry.
Join Presenter Pete Rhoten as he describes a
PET blow-molding case study with lessons
applicable to all types of production equipment.
Demons, hiding inside production equipment,
often cause significantly disruptive and
expensive compressed air pressure drops and
leaks. In this case they were found in poorly
maintained bypass maintained bypass regulators and inlet filters. A
long-term, six-step action plan was created,
introducing compressed air flow measurement,
to lower over-all plant pressure requirements.

When to Install a VSD Air
CompressorDesigning for 8 to 1 Aeration
Blower Turndown
Join Keynote Speaker, Tom Jenkins, President of JenTech Inc., to review aeration blower systems, designed around the goal of achieving 8 to 1 turndown, using four blowers at 50%, 50%, 25% and 25% of design load.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), wastewater treatment plants consume 56 billion kWh totaling nearly $3 billion per year -equal to almost 3 percent of total power usage in the United States. Aeration blowers, in a typical biological wastewater treatment plant, can account for 50 to 70 percent of the facility’s energy use. This webinar will explain the rationale behind the 8 to 1 turndown design target and provide aeration blower system design calculation examples.
Our Sponsor Speaker is Stephen Horne, Blower Product Manager from Kaeser Compressors, whose presentation is titled, Evaluating Blower Flow and Specific Power Performance. This presentation will cover how total package data is needed to understand a blower’s true efficiency and review testing standards for evaluating blower performance.
