Resumen
El aumento del consumo energético, el calentamiento global, el agotamiento de los recursos y el aumento de las políticas centradas en el cambio climático y la reducción de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, han promovido a los países y a las industrias la aplicación de estrategias centradas en el aumento de la eficiencia energética y la reducción de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI). Los sistemas de aire comprimido (SAC) son uno de los sistemas más utilizados en la industria; en países como China, Estados Unidos, Australia, Francia, Italia, representan alrededor del 10% de los costes totales de electricidad y en ellos existe un gran potencial de ahorro en el consumo de electricidad. En el trabajo se realiza una investigación encaminada a determinar el potencial de ahorro para los sistemas de aire comprimido en las 2 regiones más industrializas del país estimando que existe un potencial de ahorro en el consumo de electricidad alrededor de 100 GWH y la posibilidad de reducir en 22 ton las emisiones de CO2.
Increasing energy consumption, global warming, resource depletion, and increasing policies focused on climate change and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, have promoted countries and industries to implement strategies focused on increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Compressed air systems (SAC) are one of the most widely used systems in the industry; in countries such as China, USA, Australia, France, Italy, they represent about 10% of total electricity costs and there is a great potential for savings in electricity consumption. In this work, research is carried out to determine the saving potential for compressed air systems in the 2 most industrialized regions of the country, estimating that there is a saving potential in electricity consumption of about 100 GWH and the possibility of reducing CO2 emissions by 22 tons.
