Cement Plant in Iran. Approximate location 36.62595, 49.51585.

Cement PlantIranCO₂ reported

Loshan Cement Plant is a cement plant in Iran with a reported capacity of 200,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Loshan Cement Co. By capacity it ranks #67 of 69 cement plants tracked in Iran. It emits about 80,155 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 18,684 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 11% above the median cement plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 200,000 t of cement، يكون Loshan Cement Plant أقل من متوسط cement plant في Iran (1,200,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 5% 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.
