Uzbekneftegaz Bukhara Refinery

Uzbekneftegaz Bukhara Refinery is a refinery in Uzbekistan with a reported capacity of 50,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Uzbekneftegaz JSC. By capacity it ranks #3 of 3 oil refineries tracked in Uzbekistan. It emits about 80,022 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 18,653 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 81% below the median refinery.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 50,000 BBL per day ist Uzbekneftegaz Bukhara Refinery unter dem Medianwert von refinery in Uzbekistan (66,000 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.
