Morvarid Petrochemical Company (5th Olefin complex), Assaluyeh,Bushehr

Morvarid Petrochemical Company (5th Olefin complex), Assaluyeh,Bushehr is a petrochemical in Iran with a reported capacity of 500,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Taban Farda Petrochemical Group Co. By capacity it ranks #8 of 11 petrochemical plants tracked in Iran. It emits about 651,742 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 151,921 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731915.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 500,000 t of ethylene ist Morvarid Petrochemical Company (5th Olefin complex), Assaluyeh,Bushehr 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.
