Aluminium Smelter in China. Approximate location 29.49117, 115.45659.
Aluminium SmelterChinaCO₂ reported
Emei aluminium plant is an aluminium smelter in China with a reported capacity of 350,000 t of alumina/aluminum. It smelts alumina into primary aluminium by high-current electrolysis. It is operated by Leshan Hongjia Metal Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #75 of 141 aluminium smelters tracked in China. It emits about 743,798 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 173,379 cars.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3672985.
À 350,000 t of alumina/aluminum, Emei aluminium plant est autour de la médiane des aluminium smelter en China (372,000 t of alumina/aluminum). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 16% au-dessus de la médiane des aluminium smelter. Sous-secteur: aluminum. Comme aluminium smelter, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 600–900°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 fonderies d'aluminium utilisent de grands courants électriques pour raffiner l'alumine en aluminium fondu au-dessus de 900°C, et le métal chaud doit s'écouler à travers des creusets et des équipements de coulée.
