Industrial Ventilation (AIHce EXP 2023 OnDemand)



Course Description:
Recorded at AIHce EXP 2023

Specific principles need to be used for the removal of harmful air contaminants in workplaces. The design, installation, and operation of these ventilation systems is simply different than general building ventilation. This includes dilution ventilation, displacement ventilation, and (local) exhaust ventilation. The session will review the purpose, methods, and tools of industrial ventilation and provide resources to guide professionals based on the most recent ACGIH Industrial Ventilation manuals and ASHRAE guidance.

Learning Outcomes:
Upon completion of the session, the participant will be able to:

• Compare the differences in HVAC and industrial ventilation systems.
• Describe the limitations, benefits, and differences between dilution, displacement, and local exhaust ventilation systems.
• List the elements and their characteristics that make up an industrial ventilation system.
