Cement PlantSouth AfricaCO₂ reported
Lime Acres Cement Plant is a cement plant in South Africa with a reported capacity of 947,368 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Kgatelopele Lime Pty Ltd. By capacity it ranks #9 of 13 cement plants tracked in South Africa. It emits about 205,605 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 47,927 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 40% below the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1898165.
عند 947,368 t of cement، يكون Lime Acres Cement Plant أقل من متوسط cement plant في South Africa (1,200,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 35% أقل من متوسط cement plant. 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.
