Heating, Ventilation & Air Conditioning

Ventilation and air conditioning systems play a key role in the effective operation of any plant. Ventilation and air conditioning systems will not only improve air quality, but also ensure that any remaining air systems (such as dust, fume and pneumatic conveying) operate efficiently and at their correct design duties.

Improving the state and quality of the air within a facility will result in potential savings due to reduced employee absenteeism, improved production efficiencies, and improved product quality, resulting from the comfortable environment.

HVAC techniques widely used by MECHON include:

• Centralised air conditioning and evaporative cooling systems to improve air quality for employees and processes (including spot cooling)
• Heating systems utilising gas and oil burners, or electric heater batteries
• Make-up air systems to provide filtered or purified air to areas and ensure efficient operation of exhaust systems
• Heat extraction systems from processes and equipment, including compressors
• Destratification systems to improve heating efficiencies by recycling high-level warm air within facilities
• Air Curtains to separate climate zones and prevent migration of fumes and odours
• Air knifes for product cooling, cleaning, and drying
• Clean rooms and differential pressure zones
• Humidification systems to improve air quality and reduce static charge
