CEPSA La Rabida Refinery is a refinery in Spain with a reported capacity of 190,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Cepsa . By capacity it ranks #4 of 9 oil refineries tracked in Spain. It emits about 2,216,744 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 516,724 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 38% above the median refinery.

À 190,000 BBL per day, CEPSA La Rabida Refinery est autour de la médiane des refinery en Spain (186,000 BBL per day). Sous-secteur: oil-and-gas-refining. Comme refinery, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 200–600°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 raffineries chauffent, fractionnent et transforment chimiquement le pétrole brut en combustibles et matières premières pétrochimiques par distillation et craquage gourmands en énergie — extrêmement exigeants pour la génération de vapeur et la récupération de chaleur.
