Ingenium staat reeds sedert de beginjaren in voor het ontwerp van de technische uitrusting in heel diverse projecten in het AZ Sint-Jan te Brugge.

During the construction of the new hospital in the early 1970s, Ingenium was already involved as an engineering firm for the study and supervision of all electrical systems in this building. During various renovation and expansion phases, Ingenium's services were called upon again and again.

For example, Ingenium was responsible for coordinating the redesign of the radiology department, including the realization of the very first NMR scanner, for which the logistic rooms had to be completely a-magnetic, as an absolute filter for a broad spectrum of radiation.

Ingenium also obtained the assignment, within the framework of the Master Plan, to optimize and renew the existing systems of the A.Z. Sint-Jan. Several projects have already been realized, including the central entrance, the VE 125 and VE 235 nursing units, the pharmacy, the OP department, the emergency room, the mortuary, sterilization, stomatology, the lab, etc... All these renovations were realized while the hospital remained fully operational.

Furthermore, Ingenium advises the technical department on energy management. The ever-growing demand for cooling power in the hospital and the consequent rising electricity bill required an economical and ecological alternative solution. After extensive research, Ingenium developed a cold production installation with a final capacity of 4.8 MW by converting the residual heat of the IVBO incinerator over absorption chillers into ice water with regime 6/12° Celsius. The absorbed heat is discharged into the Bruges-Ostend canal. The annual savings on the energy bill of the A.Z. Sint-Jan, is estimated at 50,000 EUR. Moreover, this alternative solution reduces CO2 emissions by 8.4% and thus meets the KYOTO standard.
