GFG Liberty Steel Rotherham plant is a steel plant in United Kingdom with a reported capacity of 1,220,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Liberty Steel Group. By capacity it ranks #4 of 6 steel plants tracked in United Kingdom. It emits about 60,877 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 14,190 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 91% below the median steel plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1566828.
عند 1,220,000 t of steel، يكون GFG Liberty Steel Rotherham plant أقل من متوسط steel plant في United Kingdom (2,000,000 t of steel). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 53% أقل من متوسط steel plant. القطاع الفرعي: iron-and-steel. كـ steel plant، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 800–1500°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. تحرق مصانع الصلب الفحم في الأفران العالية أو تستخدم الأقواس الكهربائية لصهر الخردة؛ في كلا الحالتين يجب الاحتفاظ بالمعدن المذاب فوق 1,500°C ونقله عبر الأنابيب والحاويات الساخنة الواسعة.
مقارنة السعة وكثافة CO₂ محسوبة من بيانات منشآت Climate TRACE الصناعية؛ دور القطاع بناءً على مرجع الهندسة.
