'Fluid machinery - meeting the environmental challenge', London, UK
Fluid machines are, collectively, the largest consumers of energy in most industrial plants. For the manufacturing sector, they can be considered as having a high impact vis-a-vis the environment.
There is a significant amount of environmental legislation and fiscal controls (e.g. directives concerning energy using products, noise regulation laws, carbon dioxide emissions tariffs) which impact the design and operation of fluid machinery. More stringent requirements are inevitable as stricter global, European and national targets are imposed.
Fortunately, reducing environmental impact need not always mean increased cost. There is significant scope for financial savings, such as through reduced energy usages, improved design for remanufacturing and reuse of components.
This event aims to raise awareness of legislative requirements and showcase best practices being adopted by manufacturers and users, highlighting where opportunities exist to reduce the wider impact of fluid machinery and work in harmony with environmental requirements.For further information, please visit:
