BP40 - Improve compressed air system
| Address: Tan Thuan Export Processing Zone, Ho Chi Minh City | |
| Name of the Manager: Hsu I Yang | |
| Project Summary: In response to the energy efficiency program of Adidas brand, a garment enterprise in HCMC has made significant improvements to the lighting system to enhance energy efficiency. The goal of the project is to reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. | |
| Year of implementation: 2018 | |
|
Status before implementation A lot of compressed air was leaked from the valves and joints
Air compressor pressure was high, using manual discharge valve.
The temperature in the compressor room was very high
|
Result The improvements have been made to the compressed air system to reduce power consumption such as fixing compressed air leaks; reducing the pressure to 6-7 bar; installing automatic water drain kit; installing the hot air exhaust pipeline.
New pressure indicator and automatic water drain kit
Installed hot air exhaust from 2 machines outside |
