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.

En contexto: cómo se compara esta instalación

Con 1,400,625 t of lime, Tudela Veguin - Fábrica De Cales Y Cementos De Tudela Veguín está alrededor de la mediana de lime plant en Spain (1,400,625 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.
