General Ventilation
General Ventilation
Ventilation helps maintain a natural humidity level in the premises and promotes comfort and air quality. Drawing on its experience, STI offers efficient and cost-effective solutions.
General ventilation systems are designed to dilute and evacuate pollutants present in the work area. They are also used when the source of pollution depends on the number of people in the work area.
Principle of Operation of General Ventilation
General ventilation, also known as dilution ventilation, aims to renew the air inside industrial sites by introducing a large quantity of fresh air in a dispersed manner while diluting the existing polluted air with well-designed fans. This method helps eliminate particles and odors generated by by the presence of workers and waste from production lines, which can be harmful to the health of employees and disrupt the smooth flow of activities.
In summary, industrial ventilation has some limitations:
- It does not completely eliminate pollutants.
- It is not recommended for highly toxic chemicals.
- It is not effective against dust, large quantities of smoke, or steam.
Benefits of General Ventilation
- An economical and effective solution
- Improvement of workers’ well-being
- Maintenance of products in acceptable conditions
- Creation of positive pressure in your premises
Principles to Follow in the Design of this Type of Installation
- Capturing pollutants at the source can be complex.
- Compensate air exits with air intakes.
- Promote the maximum passage of air in contaminated areas.
