THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA® College of Engineering
Presents the
33rd Annual Birmingham Industrial Ventilation Conference
October 3-5, 2011

TheWynfrey Hotel at Riverchase Galleria
Birmingham, Alabama

The purpose of this conference is to teach effective and economical ventilation practices and design techniques through the application of established principals. Ventilation systems provide the desired control over the in-plant environment and when they are properly planned, designed and maintained, will operate within the constraints of air pollution emission control and energy limits. This conference will present the principals of airflow, how to control airborne contaminates and how to properly design and test systems. There will be both lectures and hands on problem sessions that will take you step by step through the design of various types of systems.You will learn to select appropriate exhaust devices and hoods, determine air volume and minimum duct velocity, how to size duct, the calculation of system pressure losses, the selection of fans, air cleaning devices and other ventilation topics. This course will help you understand, design and maintain efficient, effective and economical industrial exhaust ventilation systems. Each attendee will receive a copy of the latest edition of Industrial Ventilation – A Manual of Recommended Practice published by American Conference of Governmental & Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH).

This course is intended for plant engineers, industrial hygienists, sheet metal contractors, plant and operations managers, consulting engineers, safety engineers, mine engineers, regulators, inspectors, insurance investigators, risk managers and anyone involved in ventilation system design, maintenance and performance.
