Cement PlantGermanyCO₂ reported

Uxheim Cement Plant is a cement plant in Germany with a reported capacity of 150,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Wotan Zement GmbH & Co KG. By capacity it ranks #32 of 32 cement plants tracked in Germany. It emits about 44,994 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 10,488 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 17% below the median cement plant.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 150,000 t of cement، يكون Uxheim Cement Plant أقل من متوسط cement plant في Germany (1,000,000 t of cement). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 5% أقل 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.
