Cement PlantEthiopiaCO₂ reported
Ethio Chancho Cement Plant is a cement plant in Ethiopia with a reported capacity of 770,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Ethio Cement PLC. By capacity it ranks #8 of 8 cement plants tracked in Ethiopia. It emits about 353,243 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 82,341 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 27% above the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32438425.
À 770,000 t of cement, Ethio Chancho Cement Plant est en dessous de la médiane des cement plant en Ethiopia (2,300,000 t of cement). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 7% au-dessus 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.
