En contexto: cómo se compara esta instalación

Con 1,851,000 t of steel, Wuzhou Yongda Iron and Steel Co Ltd está alrededor de la mediana de steel plant en China (2,300,000 t of steel). Su CO₂ por unidad de capacidad es aproximadamente 88% por debajo de la mediana de steel plant. Subsector: iron-and-steel. Como steel plant, requiere calor de proceso intenso (típicamente 800–1500°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 acero queman carbón en altos hornos o utilizan arcos eléctricos para fundir chatarra; en ambos casos el metal fundido debe mantenerse por encima de 1.500°C y transferirse a través de tuberías y recipientes calientes extensos.
