Cement PlantGermanyCO₂ reported
Otterbein Cement Plant is a cement plant in Germany with a reported capacity of 500,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Zement- und Kalkwerke Otterbein GmbH & Co KG. By capacity it ranks #28 of 32 cement plants tracked in Germany. It emits about 173,486 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 40,440 cars.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-42546193.
Bei 500,000 t of cement ist Otterbein Cement Plant unter dem Medianwert von cement plant in Germany (1,000,000 t of cement). Sein CO₂ pro Kapazitätseinheit liegt ungefähr 9% über dem Medianwert von cement plant. Untersektor: cement. Als cement plant benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 800–1400°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. Zementanlagen erhitzen Kalkstein auf 1.400°C in Drehrohröfen — einer der heißesten Industrieprozesse — und müssen die Temperatur über die gesamte Ofenlänge präzise kontrollieren.
