Bandar Imam Petrochemical Co. , Bandar Imam Khommeini,Khuzekstan

Bandar Imam Petrochemical Co. , Bandar Imam Khommeini,Khuzekstan is a petrochemical in Iran with a reported capacity of 565,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Co. By capacity it ranks #6 of 11 petrochemical plants tracked in Iran. It emits about 761,008 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 177,391 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731910.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 565,000 t of ethylene ist Bandar Imam Petrochemical Co. , Bandar Imam Khommeini,Khuzekstan etwa um dem Medianwert von petrochemical in Iran (565,000 t of ethylene). Untersektor: petrochemical-steam-cracking. Als petrochemical benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 300–800°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. Petrochemische Anlagen spalten Kohlenwasserstoffe bei sehr hohen Temperaturen auf, um Ethylen, Propylen und andere Basischemikalien zu erzeugen — einer der wärmeintensivsien Industrieprozesse.
