Hot air is used in many thermal production processes—for heating, drying, evaporation, curing, cooling (through evaporation), etc.
It is often particularly efficient to reuse process exhaust air—as so-called recirculated air.
But how should one decide how to divide the exhaust air between recirculation and bypass (or discharge)?
Founded in 2016, the start-up company Luftmeister GmbH has developed into a nationwide “efficiency partner” operating throughout Germany.
Semiconductor manufacturers such as Bosch Semiconductor or Globalfoundries have to discharge acidic and alkaline exhaust air in a controlled manner.
The success story continues... Austrian brickworks benefit directly from the Luftmeister measurement solution by reducing their CO2 emission certificate costs!
An extraordinary property in an exquisite location is currently being built in Düsseldorf: the "Le Coeur" project on the famous Königsallee, better known as the "Kö."
Luftmeister GmbH is a double award recipient this fall:
Luftmeister GmbH wins this year's Freiburg Innovation Award for its innovation "Air Energy Meter", which is also the "Special Award of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce".
Luftmeister GmbH celebrated its fifth anniversary in February and can look back on over 200 successfully completed customer projects.
Intersolar and EM-Power - in the field of renewable energies and sustainable technologies these are internationally known trade fairs. This year, Luftmeister GmbH would also have been a trade fair exhibitor - but unfortunately, due to Corona, the trade fair could not take place.
Luftmeister GmbH from Kirchzarten is this year's winner of the Baden-Württemberg Environmental Technology Award in the MSR/Industry 4.0 category.
The PTB grants type approval for the air energy meter
The world has a new calibration size - and the right product. Our EZ 55 air energy meter has now been received from PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) the type approval!
The first of these, at the beginning of September, is the
Frankfurt Energy Efficiency Fair, the professional forum for industrial
energy management. Energy advisers, planning consultants, and energy
officers will be able to see how Luftmeister has extended energy
management to cover the important subjects of ambient air and process
air, including the measurement of heat flows; analysis and optimisation
of heat recovery systems; showing evidence of savings; and much else
besides.
The prize will be awarded at the “Interclima” trade fair in Paris, 6-10 November 2017.
At Biotest, Europe's biggest producer of blood plasma, a lot of large air-conditioning units serve a large number of cleanrooms. Luftmeister GmbH has installed nine measuring stations for continual monitoring of the flow of air from outside, so that it is now possible to make sure that there is always enough air flowing into the cleanrooms. At the same time it is also possible to maximise the recycling of air – with considerable savings on heating.
Now available after years of preparation: Since January, the VDI 2077 Guideline 4 has been available as a “green paper”, which means that the use of the important medium, ambient air, can now be metered. In many situations it is now obligatory to calculate the costs of air conditioning on the basis of the volume of air used.
