Cement PlantKenyaCO₂ reported
EPAC Athi River Cement Plant is a cement plant in Kenya with a reported capacity of 1,000,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by East African Portland Cement PLC. By capacity it ranks #3 of 5 cement plants tracked in Kenya. It emits about 454,451 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 105,933 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 26% above the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32438837.
À 1,000,000 t of cement, EPAC Athi River Cement Plant est autour de la médiane des cement plant en Kenya (1,000,000 t of cement). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 12% en dessous de la médiane des cement plant. Sous-secteur: cement. Comme cement plant, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 800–1400°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 cimenteries chauffent le calcaire à 1.400°C dans des fours rotatifs — l'un des processus industriels les plus chauds — et doivent contrôler la température avec précision sur toute la longueur du four.
