INDUSTRIAL NOISE continued - Retrofit
and Treatment
Retrofit Noise Abatement Evaluations and Treatment Recommendations –
Oftentimes, a facility starts operations or modifies their processes
only to find that the new noise environment is unacceptable. In these
after-the-fact situations where noise levels are too high, AAC has been
able to survey the facility, evaluate the conditions, and make
recommendations for retrofit noise abatement treatments. These
evaluations and treatments can return a facility to noise compliance,
remedy offspec operating configurations (for improved equipment
functioning and longevity), and/or improve the working conditions for
plant personnel.
Representative retrofit abatement evaluations and noise control
