£250 000 cost saving on environmental noise control…
Everyone knows that massive noise barriers are the only solution for noise from scrap yards and recycling centres. Everyone knows wrong...
We saved a scrap recycling company over £250 000 on the proposed noise barriers by controlling the dominant scrap impact noise at source. This is new technology that can reduce the impact noise from crushers in quarries, dump trucks, shredders, trains, manual handling etc by up to 15dB(A). Compared with conventional noise control techniques, the cost is miniscule, it is incredibly rugged, can be fitted very quickly and has no effect on plant operation, maintenance or access.
