Lime PlantUnited StatesCO₂ reported
The Western Sugar Cooperative is a lime plant in United States with a reported capacity of 38,389 t of lime. It calcines limestone into quicklime in high-temperature kilns. By capacity it ranks #111 of 122 lime plants tracked in United States. It emits about 47,349 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 11,037 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 87% above the median lime plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38467337.
عند 38,389 t of lime، يكون The Western Sugar Cooperative أقل من متوسط lime plant في United States (178,599 t of lime). القطاع الفرعي: lime. كـ lime plant، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 600–900°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 الحجر الجيري بحرق الحجر الجيري في أفران ساخنة عند 800-900°C، ويجب التعامل مع الحجر الجيري الحي الساخن في حاويات معزولة لمنع التفاعل مع الرطوبة.
مقارنة السعة وكثافة CO₂ محسوبة من بيانات منشآت Climate TRACE الصناعية؛ دور القطاع بناءً على مرجع الهندسة.
