Steel Plant in Ukraine. Approximate location 47.87091, 33.39101.

Steel PlantUkraineCO₂ reported

ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih steel plant is a steel plant in Ukraine with a reported capacity of 6,498,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih PJSC. By capacity it ranks #1 of 10 steel plants tracked in Ukraine. It emits about 4,527,346 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 1,055,325 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 29% above the median steel plant.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 6,498,000 t of steel, ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih steel plant est bien au-dessus de la médiane des steel plant en Ukraine (3,300,000 t of steel). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 14% au-dessus de la médiane des steel plant. Sous-secteur: iron-and-steel. Comme steel plant, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 800–1500°C) pour ses opérations industrielles essentielles — chaleur qui doit être fournie par des chaudières, fours ou combustion directe, et les pertes par les récipients et tuyauteries non isolés représentent du combustible gaspillé. L'isolation modulaire amovible peut réduire ces pertes de 80–96%, refroidissant les surfaces à ≤45°C, avec des délais d'amortissement souvent inférieurs à 2 ans. Les aciéries brûlent du charbon dans des hauts fourneaux ou utilisent des arcs électriques pour fondre des ferrailles; dans les deux cas, le métal en fusion doit être maintenu au-dessus de 1.500°C et transféré à travers des tuyauteries et récipients chauds étendus.
