Cement Plant in France. Approximate location 50.69917, 2.11383.

Cement PlantFranceCO₂ reported

Lumbres Cement Plant is a cement plant in France with a reported capacity of 800,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Eqiom SAS. By capacity it ranks #11 of 22 cement plants tracked in France. It emits about 483,691 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 112,748 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 68% above the median cement plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 800,000 t of cement، يكون Lumbres Cement Plant حوالي متوسط cement plant في France (800,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 57% أعلى 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.
