From temperature differential’s effect on pumps over to an airside
design that covers all the bases for comfort and efficient
ventilation, the authors are combining preparation and innovation to
give Tuscaloosa’s new federal building a suitably exemplary
feel.
Software monitoring saved a San Diego pharmaceutical lab 45% in energy costs.The U.S. pharmaceutical industry consumes nearly $1 billion in energy annually. Lab facilities often have environmental and cleanroom requirements
This Rhode Island center of higher learning challenged an initial
benchmark and forged a vision of better energy management through an
upgraded campus-wide BAS. A design-bid approach, a five-point
scorecard for grading bids, and a full-time monitor for the new setup
were just three example of how process can drive performance in
educational and commercial settings alike.
Defending against even a simple airborne attack may require a complex
ventilation safety plan - or at the least, a well thought-out
strategy. Sensor capabilities, sensor placement, response speed, and
the general ventilation system are some of the factors that play into
protecting occupants (and even property) in the case of something
worse than an accident.
