Dow Chemical Co., Freeport (LHC 7),Tex is a petrochemical in United States with a reported capacity of 2,090,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by The Dow Chemical Company . By capacity it ranks #4 of 34 petrochemical plants tracked in United States. It emits about 2,653,261 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 618,476 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 6% below the median petrochemical.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-18648311.
عند 2,090,000 t of ethylene، يكون Dow Chemical Co., Freeport (LHC 7),Tex أعلى بكثير من متوسط petrochemical في United States (1,000,000 t of ethylene). القطاع الفرعي: petrochemical-steam-cracking. كـ petrochemical، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 300–800°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 مصافي البتروكيماويات بتكسير الهيدروكربونات عند درجات حرارة عالية جداً لإنتاج الإثيلين والبروبيلين والمواد الكيميائية الأساسية الأخرى — أحد أكثر العمليات الصناعية كثافة في الحرارة.
مقارنة السعة وكثافة CO₂ محسوبة من بيانات منشآت Climate TRACE الصناعية؛ دور القطاع بناءً على مرجع الهندسة.
