JPN-Toyama_ammonia

JPN-Toyama_ammonia is a chemical plant in Japan with a reported capacity of 128,124 t of chemical. It manufactures industrial and specialty chemicals. By capacity it ranks #5 of 8 chemical plants tracked in Japan. It emits about 189,269 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 44,119 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 100% below the median chemical plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-33999014.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 128,124 t of chemical ist JPN-Toyama_ammonia etwa um dem Medianwert von chemical plant in Japan (157,704 t of chemical). Untersektor: chemicals. Als chemical plant benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 100–500°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. Chemieanlagen erzeugen eine breite Palette von Industrie- und Spezialchemikalien, viele erfordern präzise Temperaturkontrolle und nachhaltigen Wärmeeintrag für Reaktionen und Trennungen.
