| LOOS steam boilers for Dubai's mega-projects  No other country in the world has seen the creation of so many stupendous structures in recent years as Dubai. Oil deposits have formed the basis for this building boom and have made possible the huge investments in infrastructure over the last few decades. The sheiks love superlatives. At the moment, Dubai is building the largest airport, the largest leisure park and the largest man-made islands. The property company "Emaar Properties PJSC" is the developer behind the mega-project "Downtown Dubai", a part of the city that is currently under construction, the centre of which will be the world's tallest building – the skyscraper known as the "Burj Dubai". Other parts of the project are the "Dubai Mall" shopping centre, a newly built, Arab-style "Old City" and the "Burj Dubai Lake Hotel" (306 m high).For the laundry, hot water supply and humidification in the "Burj Dubai Lake Hotel", LOOS INTERNATIONAL was able to supply two UL-S steam boilers through its alliance partner Wellman Robey in the UK. Speed-controlled burners with oxygen monitoring minimise the consumption of energy and fuel and protect the environment. These are connected via the latest bus technology with LOOS's modern LBC boiler control. Teleservice can be used to access the system's data and control settings and to analyse and rectify any discrepancies. The Wellman contractor "Technical Parts Company LLC" was able to use its many years of experience most profitably in the planning of the boiler system and monitoring of its installation. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
