Cement PlantAustraliaCO₂ reported
Birkenhead Cement Plant is a cement plant in Australia with a reported capacity of 1,600,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Adelaide Brighton Cement Ltd. By capacity it ranks #1 of 5 cement plants tracked in Australia. It emits about 552,941 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 128,891 cars.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1895133.
عند 1,600,000 t of cement، يكون Birkenhead Cement Plant حوالي متوسط cement plant في Australia (1,500,000 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.
مقارنة السعة وكثافة CO₂ محسوبة من بيانات منشآت Climate TRACE الصناعية؛ دور القطاع بناءً على مرجع الهندسة.
