Tudela Veguin - Fábrica De Cales Y Cementos De Tudela Veguín

Tudela Veguin - Fábrica De Cales Y Cementos De Tudela Veguín is a lime plant in Spain with a reported capacity of 1,400,625 t of lime. It calcines limestone into quicklime in high-temperature kilns. By capacity it ranks #2 of 3 lime plants tracked in Spain. It emits about 582,560 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 135,795 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 37% below the median lime plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38467725.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 1,400,625 t of lime ist Tudela Veguin - Fábrica De Cales Y Cementos De Tudela Veguín etwa um dem Medianwert von lime plant in Spain (1,400,625 t of lime). Untersektor: lime. Als lime plant benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 600–900°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. Kalkwerke kalzinieren Kalkstein in heißen Öfen bei 800–900°C, und der heiße Branntkalk muss in gedämmten Behältern gehandhabt werden, um Reaktion mit Feuchte zu verhindern.
