Sagunto Catalina Project

Sagunto Catalina Project is a chemical plant in Spain with a reported capacity of 200,000 t of chemical. It manufactures industrial and specialty chemicals. It is operated by Fertiberia SA. By capacity it ranks #2 of 3 chemical plants tracked in Spain. It emits about 346,500 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 80,769 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-45257235.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 200,000 t of chemical ist Sagunto Catalina Project etwa um dem Medianwert von chemical plant in Spain (200,000 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.
