Cement Plant in Mexico. Approximate location 31.65725, -106.47917.

Cement PlantMexicoCO₂ reported

Juarez Cement Plant is a cement plant in Mexico with a reported capacity of 200,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by GCC SAB de CV. By capacity it ranks #35 of 35 cement plants tracked in Mexico. It emits about 57,617 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 13,431 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 20% below the median cement plant.

En contexto: cómo se compara esta instalación

Con 200,000 t of cement, Juarez Cement Plant está por debajo de la mediana de cement plant en Mexico (1,300,000 t of cement). Su CO₂ por unidad de capacidad es aproximadamente 7% por encima de la mediana de cement plant. Subsector: cement. Como cement plant, requiere calor de proceso intenso (típicamente 800–1400°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 cemento calientan piedra caliza a 1.400°C en hornos rotativos — uno de los procesos industriales más calientes — y deben controlar la temperatura con precisión en toda la longitud del horno.
