The Best Practices 2024 EXPO & Conference is bringing the largest American event for on-site utilities to the Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta, Georgia, Oct. 29-31. Equipment sales engineers, engineering firms and manufacturing personnel will have the opportunity to meet the leading global manufacturers of compressed air, vacuum and cooling/chilled water technologies on the EXPO floor and learn about the latest innovations in air compressors, compressed air purification, aluminum piping, pneumatics, leak detection, compressed air measurement instruments, blowers, vacuum systems, nitrogen generators, chillers, cooling towers and more.
The Best Practices 2024 EXPO will feature the latest innovations in compressed air, vacuum and cooling/chilled water technologies.
Here is a roundup of the technologies that will be on display at the Best Practices 2024 EXPO.

In addition to nearly 100 exhibitors, the EXPO will also feature the New Technology EXPO Classroom, which provides insights on new technologies from around the world. The classroom is reserved for exhibitors to present their latest technologies for compressed air, pneumatics, vacuum, chiller and cooling tower systems. This year’s presentations will include information on cutting-edge compressed air and gas instrumentation technology, advancements in centrifugal controls, system auditing, hydrogen filtration technology, sizing compressed air piping, gas compressor applications and much more.
Attendees can learn about exhibitors’ latest technologies in The New Technology EXPO Classroom.
