Cement Plant in Colombia. Approximate location 6.21866, -74.57342.

Cement PlantColombiaCO₂ reported

Nare Cement Plant is a cement plant in Colombia with a reported capacity of 270,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Cementos Argos SA. By capacity it ranks #13 of 14 cement plants tracked in Colombia. It emits about 89,009 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 20,748 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 8% below the median cement plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 270,000 t of cement، يكون Nare Cement Plant أقل من متوسط cement plant في Colombia (1,095,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 6% 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.
