Compressed Air Systems: Integral Management and Artificial Intelligence
The Industrial Sustainability Best Practices Conference, taking place June 17-18 in Castelldefels, Barcelona, Spain, announced the presentation “Compressed Air Systems: Integral Management and Artificial Intelligence,” led by Mario Baena Simón, Energy and Control Engineer, Ingersoll Rand.
Compressed air generation means the energy consumption for more than 40% of a plants. Optimizing and adjusting this consumption to maximize the use of the compressor room is the greatest challenge for manufacturers and users. Traditional the actions related with the installation of a variable speed, such as reducing pressure drop, adjusting working pressure, monitoring leaks, or installing basic control systems, are giving way to much more complex control systems that analyze the actual compressed air demand every time to adjust the air compressed production accordingly, achieving extraordinary performance from every cubic meter of compressed air generated.
The Conference will be led by 24 industrial experts with presentations covering the event’s main focus topics including energy/water conservation and food-safe system design and quality verification.
Mario Baena Simón, is an Industrial Engineer, head of the Energy and Control Department within the Ingersoll Rand group in the Iberia region, with more than 10 years of experience in the compressed air sector, with a professional career closely linked to energy efficiency, data analysis, and optimization of compressor rooms to always achieve the best energy solution adapted to each user.
