Refinery in Senegal. Approximate location 14.74097, -17.34802.
RefinerySenegalCO₂ reported
Societe Africaine de Raffinage (SAR) Refinery is a refinery in Senegal with a reported capacity of 30,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Petrosen . It emits about 116,021 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 27,045 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 54% below the median refinery.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-40040656.
Bei 30,000 BBL per day ist Societe Africaine de Raffinage (SAR) Refinery etwa um dem Medianwert von refinery in Senegal (30,000 BBL per day). 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.
