Durability of thermal insulation properties in high temperatures – one of the topics which we will discuss during heat not lost conference.

Artur Miros, PhD, director of Building Materials Research Center „Izolacja” at the Institute of Mechanized Construction and Rock Mining in Katowice will present the topic. Find more information on: Graduated from the University of Silesia in Katowice, Faculty of Chemistry. Completed post doctoral internship at the Institute of Electron Structures and Lasers in Greece and […]

Increase energy efficiency improvements with the installation of industrial insulation

Energy efficiency of thermal insulation depends on many factors. One may define two groups of them. The first group comprises measures one should take on design and mounting stages. The second group represents maintenance factors, which occur after the insulation is installed. The first group is more significant as it refers to: selection of suitable […]

Technical insulation materials

Mineral wool remains the most widely used insulation material in Poland. However, it is worth to remember about alternative and less common materials. According to Turner and Malloy classification from 1981 there are 5 main categories of insulation materials: cellular, fibrous, flake, granular and reflective. For an instance, an insulation made of cellular material with […]

Energy efficiency class for industrial installation

In a never-ending pursuit of the European Union to minimize the CO2 emission into the environment sources of waste has been identified and classified with respect to their function and output. Power industry is being regarded as the area where measures of major efficiency improvement and control are required. For this purpose, German Engineering Society […]

Standards of Energy Management – ISO 50001

ISO 50001, which influences energy efficiency, was introduced to the Polish system of norms in 2012. That standard regulates energy management. The aim of it is to guide industrial facilities toward integrated energy efficiency in their own management practices. The norm can be applied to all types of organizations, no matter the business branch. A […]

II International Heat not lost Conference

Energy efficiency is one of the best ways to meet the challenges of a limited number of energy resources and the need to limit climate change. Among the projects aimed at improving energy efficiency at the top spot is the thermal insulation of industrial installations, in particular objects such as pipes, tanks, boilers, flue gas […]

Economical Insulation Thickness

The general assumption behind insulation design of industrial installation is to meet HSE rules, which is to keep the temperature of 50C-60C of insulation cladding. The aim of insulation is to limit heat loss and therefore to increase heat production efficiency. Choosing the right insulation means cost reduction of industrial installation maintenance afterwards. Economic insulation […]
