After more than 80 years, why is generating compressed air still so inefficient?
Simply stated, compressing air is inefficient due to a combination of the physics of compressing air as a gas, the design of the air compressors themselves, a general lack of adequate control and management systems, and the many problems within the compressed air delivery and storage infrastructure. This results in only nine percent (9%) of consumed energy being delivered to end users in a typical industrial facility. At Pneu-Logic, we think this overall (in)efficiency rate for compressed air systems is unacceptable, and we’re out to change that, one business at a time.
