The high-pressure system, withits necessary compression plant, storagetanks and operating charges, is an expen-sive remedy. The proper choice of solu-tion should be with the management asto whether the operating charges of thehigh-pressure system are less than the in-terest charges on the cost of large low-pressure trunk lines less installation costsof the high-pressure system. As a cure for the above condition, or,rather, relief, it is possible to install arotary fan or booster at the works out-let and thus increase the pressure, to anydesired extent, for any period of is a cheap remedy, but meets the re-quirements inasmuch as it overcomes theloss in pressur
