Energy management at a light industrial facility
|
||
Fundy Linen Services (FLS) is a large industrialized laundry facility servicing the hospitals in southern New Brunswick. When the FLS plant was designed nearly twenty-five years ago, the philosophies of “reduce, reuse, and recycle” were
incorporated into every aspect of its construction and ultimate use. From the use of water ecient equipment such as tunnel washers and other automated systems, to a heat reclaiming system, the location of water pipes in hot waste water ducts and the recycling of nal rinse water into the next wash, FLS’s plant operations and practices represent both resource and financial economies. SHIFT was contacted by FLS to see if further optimization in energy eciency for this modern facility can be achieved, what measures needed to be taken and how much energy can be save out of the measures.
