Steel Plant in Russian Federation. Approximate location 52.55382, 39.63844.

Steel PlantRussian FederationCO₂ reported

NLMK Lipetsk steel plant is a steel plant in Russian Federation with a reported capacity of 14,400,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Novolipetsk Steel PJSC. By capacity it ranks #2 of 26 steel plants tracked in Russian Federation. It emits about 20,558,330 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 4,792,152 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 164% above the median steel plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 14,400,000 t of steel، يكون NLMK Lipetsk steel plant أعلى بكثير من متوسط steel plant في Russian Federation (1,500,000 t of steel). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 919% أعلى من متوسط steel plant. القطاع الفرعي: iron-and-steel. كـ steel plant، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 800–1500°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. تحرق مصانع الصلب الفحم في الأفران العالية أو تستخدم الأقواس الكهربائية لصهر الخردة؛ في كلا الحالتين يجب الاحتفاظ بالمعدن المذاب فوق 1,500°C ونقله عبر الأنابيب والحاويات الساخنة الواسعة.

مقارنة السعة وكثافة CO₂ محسوبة من بيانات منشآت Climate TRACE الصناعية؛ دور القطاع بناءً على مرجع الهندسة.
