• Understanding relevant ISO standards
• Estimating demand for Compressed Air volume and pressure
• Controls, instrumentation & cost accounting
• The value of periodical 3rd party audits
• Heat recovery from compressed air.

The main objective of this CPD course was to help engineers to add value in engineering process with better understating of utilization of compressed air. In the end certificates were distributed to the participants by Worthy Rector, Dr. Tanveer Hussain. Department of Weaving would like to thank Mr. Imtiaz Rastgar (Manufacturing Specialist) and his team for his efforts in delivering the course.
