Data Centres
In today’s digital landscape, data centers are crucial to global infrastructure. However, the persistent noise from backup power generation and cooling systems poses significant challenges. Wakefield Acoustics offers leading-edge noise pollution solutions, transforming challenges into opportunities.
Power Generation
The expansion of the Data Centre industry in many parts of the world has resulted in an increase in standby power requirements for these energy-thirsty sites. Standby power for such developments can take the form of large engines and generators housed in containers or acoustically treated buildings.Our bespoke industrial noise control services are used across a range of sectors and industries.
Peaking Plants
Peaking plants play a big role in balancing the power grid during times of high electricity demand. The fast-start gas turbines and generators operate in close proximity to urban or rural environments creating noise pollution.
Combined Heat and Power
Combined Heat and Power plants are utilised to simultaneously generate electricity and useful heat. Such systems are generally more energy efficient than the separate generation of power and heat, and as such are widely installed on both industrial and commercial sites.
Standby Power
Standby power systems are critical for ensuring uninterrupted power across power generation plants and facilities. However, the generators, switchgear, and other power equipment frequently produce significant levels of noise—posing challenges for industrial noise control solutions and being compliant with industrial and environment noise regulations.
Industrial
In the construction industry, noise pollution is more than loud and annoying, it’s a challenge to being compliant in health and safety, noise pollution and environmental issues. Construction machinery and equipment generates high decibel levels to workers and the local community, thus managing noise control will improve working conditions, reduce noise pollution, and meet regulatory requirements.
Manufacturing
Modern manufacturing environments and facilities that contribute to loud noise problems require a bespoke industrial noise control solution. Manufacturing machinery, conveyor systems and compressors to HVAC systems, all require an industrial noise control solution such as our collection of acoustic products to reduce harmful noise levels.
Energy from Waste
We know the demand for sustainable waste management keeps growing and the new technologies for this sector keep evolving because the role of generating renewable energy from waste is crucial. The process to create this energy from waste involves turbines, generators, combustion chambers and more which lead to high levels of noise being produced.
Water & Waste Water
Resolving noise issues in the waste water sector can cause a number of challenges given the size and complexity of sites and the types of equipment installed.
Oil & Gas
Oil and gas exploration, drilling, processing and distribution activities typically involve a vast array of equipment and processes, all of which combine to create high levels of noise emissions.
Petrochem
Petrochemical and chemical plants produce many important building blocks and products for industry processes.
Construction
In the construction industry, noise pollution is more than loud and annoying, it’s a challenge to being compliant in health and safety, noise pollution and environmental issues. Construction machinery and equipment generates high decibel levels to workers and the local community, thus managing noise control will improve working conditions, reduce noise pollution, and meet regulatory requirements.
