What Is Compressed Air?

Compressed air is air compressed by external forces. Air is compressible. The compressed air is called compressed air when the air compressor does mechanical work to reduce its volume. Compressed air is an important source of power. Compared with other energy sources, it has the following obvious characteristics: clear and transparent, convenient transportation, no special harmful properties, no danger of fire, no fear of overload, can work in many unfavorable environments, and air is everywhere on the ground. Endless.

Air occupies a certain space, but it has no fixed shape and

Compressed air is the second largest power source after electric power, and it is also a process gas source with multiple uses. Its application ranges from petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, electric power, machinery, light industry, textile, automobile manufacturing, electronics, and food. , Pharmaceutical, biochemical, national defense, scientific research and other industries and departments.

What is not ideal is that the compressed air contains a considerable amount of impurities, mainly including: solid particles-in a typical metropolitan environment, there are about 140 million particles per cubic meter of the atmosphere, about 80% of which are in size Less than 2m,

Compressed air is generally used as a power source and is widely used.

In order for wind power plants to work normally in the absence of wind, power companies need to store energy on a practical scale, but using large batteries is clearly impractical. One solution is to use wind energy to compress the air and store it in a container or underground cave, and then use this stored air to drive the generator. This is also the goal of the Iowa Energy Storage Park in the Dallas Center in Iowa. The energy storage park conducts field testing of drilled wells, and testing will end in 2009. It is reported that this technology is also a design component of the world's largest wind power plant, which will be built in Brisco, Texas, with a generating capacity of 3,000 MW.
