Steel Plant in Romania. Approximate location 45.29359, 21.90141.

Steel PlantRomaniaCO₂ reported

GLGH Resita steel plant is a steel plant in Romania with a reported capacity of 500,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Artrom Steel Tubes SA. By capacity it ranks #4 of 5 steel plants tracked in Romania. It emits about 17,662 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 4,117 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 93% below the median steel plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 500,000 t of steel، يكون GLGH Resita steel plant حوالي متوسط steel plant في Romania (535,000 t of steel). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 32% 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.
