dc.description.abstract | Industrial plants are designed for a specific purpose of manufacturing products or a group of products in the most cost effective way. One factor which is often very poorly addressed is the environmental requirements for the workplace. Environmental conditions to be maintained include proper control of temperature, humidity, pressure and filtration requirements. Airborne contaminants generated in the process must be collected, cleaned, and treated before discharged from the building or return to the area. It is interesting that industry will spend whatever it takes to provide a proper environment for machines, at the same time it ignores the most valuable machine, the worker. Without trying to dehumanize workers by saying they are machines, we must admit there are many similarities. In addition to the above environmental conditions for the process/machines and workers, cost effective design of manufacturing facilities must also address maintainability, sanitation, durability, energy conservation and budgetary constraints. | en |
