Steel PlantUnited StatesCO₂ reported

Charter Steel Cleveland plant is a steel plant in United States with a reported capacity of 635,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Charter Manufacturing Co Inc. By capacity it ranks #61 of 75 steel plants tracked in United States. It emits about 75,775 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 17,663 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 78% below the median steel plant.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 635,000 t of steel, Charter Steel Cleveland plant est en dessous de la médiane des steel plant en United States (1,000,000 t of steel). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 7% 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.
