Petro-Canada Mississauga Lubricants Refinery

Petro-Canada Mississauga Lubricants Refinery is a refinery in Canada with a reported capacity of 16,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by HF Sinclair Corp. By capacity it ranks #17 of 18 oil refineries tracked in Canada. It emits about 105,301 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 24,546 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 22% below the median refinery.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 16,000 BBL per day ist Petro-Canada Mississauga Lubricants Refinery unter dem Medianwert von refinery in Canada (112,000 BBL per day). Sein CO₂ pro Kapazitätseinheit liegt ungefähr 34% unter dem Medianwert von refinery. 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.
