Carbon has a price.
Waste heat has a cost.
Track carbon rules, price industrial exposure and connect every compliance number to the equipment that can actually reduce it.

How is this calculated?
Emissions = production × typical sector intensity (cement 0.70, steel BF-BOF 1.90, EAF 0.40, aluminium 1.60 direct, ammonia 2.00 t CO2/t; gas power 0.37, coal 0.95 t/MWh — IEA/EC benchmark ranges). Cost = emissions × price × payable share. Inside the EU ETS the payable share follows the official free-allocation phase-out; for exporters without a domestic price it follows the CBAM phase-in. Your verified (MRV) emissions give the exact figure.
Why does my bill explode by 2030?
Not a forecast — a law. Regulation (EU) 2023/956 phases out free allocation for CBAM sectors from 97.5% (2026) to 51.5% (2030) to 0% (2034) — so the share you must pay for rises from 2.5% to 48.5% to 100%. A plant paying for 2.5% of its benchmark emissions today pays for 48.5% in 2030 — ~19× more certificates at the same price.
What is CBAM and does it apply to me?
The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism prices the embedded CO2 of cement, iron & steel, aluminium, fertilizers, hydrogen and electricity imported into the EU. If you export these to the EU and have no domestic carbon price, your importer buys CBAM certificates at the EU ETS-linked price (€75.28 for Q2 2026) on a rising share of embedded emissions — 2.5% in 2026 to 100% in 2034.
Where do the prices and data come from?
EU ETS: Trading Economics (September 10, 2026). CBAM certificate: European Commission Q2 2026 official price (published 6 July 2026). UK ETS: ICE/Statista (2025). China: Argus (Mar 2025). California: CARB auction (Feb 2025). National taxes: World Bank State & Trends of Carbon Pricing 2025 / ICAP 2025. Facility emissions: Climate TRACE satellite estimates (2023) — indicative, not verified declarations.
Equipment heat loss
Measure exposed hot surfaces
Use measured surface area, temperature and operating hours to calculate heat loss from boilers, kilns, heat exchangers, valves and pipework. Inzonex supplies removable modular insulation for equipment that requires maintenance access.
- Design target: surface temperature at or below 45 °C, subject to the application and design review
- Claimed heat-loss reduction: up to 96%, subject to the measured boundary and insulation specification
- Removable construction for inspection and maintenance access
- Calculation record available for the selected equipment and operating conditions
Do not add a calculated reduction to an emissions report until the reporting boundary, factor, implementation date and verification method have been approved.

03 · From rule to equipment
Measure the physical loss.
Carbon reporting identifies the liability. Inzonex tools identify the hot surface, quantify the loss and show the before/after intervention.
04 · Reference layer
Markets, sectors and evidence.
Go deeper without crowding the primary workflow. Country prices, sector pathways, datasets and methods remain accessible as structured reference pages.
