Thai Nguyen Iron and Steel plant

Thai Nguyen Iron and Steel plant is a steel plant in Vietnam with a reported capacity of 300,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Thai Nguyen Iron And Steel JSC. By capacity it ranks #20 of 20 steel plants tracked in Vietnam. It emits about 61,107 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 14,244 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 62% below the median steel plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 300,000 t of steel، يكون Thai Nguyen Iron and Steel plant أقل من متوسط steel plant في Vietnam (1,000,000 t of steel). 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.
