We serve clients in the following sectors:

Food and Beverage

Consumers are increasingly seeking products that respect the environment. The food and beverage industry is the fifth largest energy user in United States and is also one of the major water users. Moreover this sector needs to prepare for compliance with future carbon and water regulations. Supply chain, production, packaging, and logistics are essential functions for which Altanova identifies efficiency and cost savings opportunities. By researching, assessing and evaluating technical and operational solutions that minimize energy and water consumption, Altanova helps reduce operating costs and carbon liability, making facilities and companies both greener and more profitable.

Pharmaceutical

The pharmaceutical industry demands highly reliable HVAC utility systems due to the nature of scientific research or production. Absolute consistency in temperature and humidity is vital to develop and manufacture products safely, and meet stringent US FDA and EU regulations, global standards, and public expectations. Altanova develops innovative approaches to serve the industry by reducing energy consumption associated with the high fresh air and filtration requirements in research and production facilities.

Manufacturing

For the manufacturing sector, the function of mechanical and utility systems goes beyond building and occupant needs. Systems are a vital part of the production process itself and frequently operate at pressures, temperatures and flow rates and use physics or chemical reactions requiring high level of expertise. Altanova combines this expertise with significant experience using virtual prototyping modeling software with large central plants, to develop unique solutions. We also deliver services such as steam system surveys and steam trap testing, compressed air surveys, chiller plant re-design and optimization, and pump testing to manufacture energy efficiency opportunities for the building and the various processes within it.

Mineral and Paper Processing

The minerals processing industry uses large quantities of energy and water to process raw materials, which produces a significant waste stream, all of which have important environmental consequences and associated costs. Companies must also comply with increasingly stringent regulations and global standards, and meet growing public expectations for responsibilty and transparency. Altanova develops innovative approaches to serve the industry by reducing energy and water consumption, while reducing waste, associated with production facilities.

Data Processing and Communications

Data Centers are highly complex and often serve a mission critical role for more than one customer. System downtime can mean millions of dollars of losses for multiple parties. A high concentration of servers and other IT equipment not only requires a large amount of energy to run, these depend heavily on HVAC systems to continue functioning properly. Altanova developed in one team a unique blend of expertises from IT, Infrastructure and mechanical, electrical systems engineering that can analyze system performance to identify measures and opportunities that reduce energy costs, without sacrificing the reliability of the systems.
