A27 -- Air Conditioning of Wood and Paper Product Facilities (SI)

This chapter covers some of the standard requirements for air conditioning of facilities that manufacture finished wood products as well as for pulp and paper product process operations. General Wood Product Operations Pulp and Paper Operations No. of Pages: 4 A28, Power Plants This chapter discusses HVAC systems for industrial facilities for the production of process heat and power and for electrical generating stations and transmission facilities. Not every type of power plant is specifically covered, but the process areas addressed normally correspond to similar process areas in any plant. For example, wood-fired boilers are not specifically discussed, but the requirements for coal-fired boilers generally apply. Aspects of HVAC system design unique to nuclear power plants are covered in Chapter 29. General Design Criteria Ventilation Approach Applications Steam Generator Buildings: Industrial and Power Facilities Turbine Generator Building Combustion Turbine Areas Main Control Center Substation and Switchyard Control Structures Turbine Lubricating Oil Storage Oil Storage and Pump Buildings Coal Crusher and Coal Transportation System Buildings Heating/Cooling Systems Energy Recovery Safety Considerations No. of Pages: 13 A29, Nuclear Facilities The HVAC requirements for facilities using radioactive materials are discussed in this chapter. Such facilities include nuclear power plants, fuel fabrication and processing plants, plutonium processing plants, hospitals, corporate and academic research facilities, and other facilities housing nuclear operations or materials. The information presented here should serve as a guide; however, careful and individual analysis of each facility is required for proper application.
