En contexto: cómo se compara esta instalación

Con 35,796 t of lime, Carmeuse Lime Inc Millersville Operations está por debajo de la mediana de lime plant en United States (178,599 t of lime). Subsector: lime. Como lime plant, requiere calor de proceso intenso (típicamente 600–900°C) para sus operaciones industriales centrales — calor que debe ser suministrado por calderas, hornos o combustión directa, y las pérdidas a través de recipientes y tuberías sin aislar representan combustible desperdiciado. El aislamiento modular desmontable puede reducir esas pérdidas en un 80–96%, enfriando superficies a ≤45°C, con amortización a menudo inferior a 2 años. Las plantas de cal calcinan piedra caliza en hornos calientes a 800–900°C, y la cal viva caliente debe manejarse en recipientes aislados para prevenir reacción con la humedad.
