RefineryIndiaCO₂ reported

IOCL Mathura Refinery is a refinery in India with a reported capacity of 161,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. By capacity it ranks #13 of 22 oil refineries tracked in India. It emits about 2,318,366 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 540,412 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 71% above the median refinery.

En contexto: cómo se compara esta instalación

Con 161,000 BBL per day, IOCL Mathura Refinery está por debajo de la mediana de refinery en India (210,000 BBL per day). Subsector: oil-and-gas-refining. Como refinery, requiere calor de proceso intenso (típicamente 200–600°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 refinerías calientan, fraccionan y transforman químicamente el petróleo crudo en combustibles y materias primas petroquímicas mediante destilación y craqueo que consumen mucha energía — extremadamente exigentes en generación de vapor y recuperación de calor.
