Valero Pembroke Refinery is a refinery in United Kingdom with a reported capacity of 270,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Valero Energy Corp. By capacity it ranks #1 of 6 oil refineries tracked in United Kingdom. It emits about 2,477,577 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 577,524 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 9% above the median refinery.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3144163.
عند 270,000 BBL per day، يكون Valero Pembroke Refinery حوالي متوسط refinery في United Kingdom (221,000 BBL per day). القطاع الفرعي: oil-and-gas-refining. كـ refinery، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 200–600°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 المصافي بتسخين وتجزئة وتحويل النفط الخام كيميائياً إلى الوقود والمواد الخام البتروكيميائية من خلال التقطير والتكسير اللذين يتطلبان طاقة كثيفة — متطلبة بشكل استثنائي لتوليد البخار وتعافي الحرارة.
