Tabriz Petrochemical Co. , Tabriz,East Azerbaijan

Tabriz Petrochemical Co. , Tabriz,East Azerbaijan is a petrochemical in Iran with a reported capacity of 136,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Omid Shares Management and Investment Co. By capacity it ranks #11 of 11 petrochemical plants tracked in Iran. It emits about 190,966 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 44,514 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731913.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 136,000 t of ethylene ist Tabriz Petrochemical Co. , Tabriz,East Azerbaijan unter dem Medianwert von petrochemical in Iran (565,000 t of ethylene). Sein CO₂ pro Kapazitätseinheit liegt ungefähr 8% über dem Medianwert von petrochemical. 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.
