Cement PlantBahrainCO₂ reported

Askar Cement Plant is a cement plant in Bahrain with a reported capacity of 800,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Falcon Cement Company BSC. It emits about 340,384 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 79,344 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 18% above the median cement plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 800,000 t of cement، يكون Askar Cement Plant حوالي متوسط cement plant في Bahrain (800,000 t of cement). القطاع الفرعي: cement. كـ cement plant، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 800–1400°C) لعملياته الصناعية الأساسية — حرارة يجب توفيرها بواسطة الغلايات أو الأفران أو الاحتراق المباشر، والخسائر من خلال الحاويات والأنابيب غير المعزولة تمثل وقود مهدر. يمكن للعزل المعياري القابل للإزالة أن يقلل هذه الخسائر بمقدار 80-96٪، وتبريد الأسطح إلى ≤45°C، مع فترة استرجاع غالباً أقل من سنتين. تقوم مصانع الإسمنت بتسخين الحجر الجيري إلى 1,400°C في الأفران الدوارة — أحد أكثر العمليات الصناعية سخونة — ويجب التحكم في درجة الحرارة بدقة عبر طول الفرن كله.
