Cement PlantUnited StatesCO₂ reported
Louisville Cement Plant is a cement plant in United States with a reported capacity of 1,100,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Ash Grove Cement Co. By capacity it ranks #46 of 86 cement plants tracked in United States. It emits about 301,887 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 70,370 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 24% below the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1897963.
عند 1,100,000 t of cement، يكون Louisville Cement Plant حوالي متوسط cement plant في United States (1,100,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 8% 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.
