RefineryUruguayCO₂ reported
ANCAP La Teja Montevideo Refinery is a refinery in Uruguay with a reported capacity of 50,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Administracion Nacional de Combustibles Alcohol y Portland . It emits about 352,625 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 82,197 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 16% below the median refinery.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3144165.
Bei 50,000 BBL per day ist ANCAP La Teja Montevideo Refinery etwa um dem Medianwert von refinery in Uruguay (50,000 BBL per day). Untersektor: oil-and-gas-refining. Als refinery benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 200–600°C) für seinen Kernbetrieb — Wärme, die durch Dampfkessel, Öfen oder direkte Verbrennung geliefert werden muss, und Verluste durch ungedämmte Behälter und Rohrleitungen stellen verschwendeten Brennstoff dar. Modulare abnehmbare Dämmung kann diese Verluste um 80–96% senken, Oberflächen auf ≤45°C kühlen, mit Amortisationszeiten oft unter 2 Jahren. Raffinerien wärmen auf, fraktionieren und chemisch transformieren Rohöl durch energieintensive Destillation und Cracken in Brennstoffe und petrochemische Rohstoffe — extrem anspruchsvoll für Dampfzeugung und Wärmenutzung.
