En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 47,556,000 t of pulp & paper, Georgia Pacific - Brewton - AL est autour de la médiane des pulp & paper mill en United States (47,556,000 t of pulp & paper). Sous-secteur: pulp-and-paper. Comme pulp & paper mill, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 150–250°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 papeteries génèrent leur propre vapeur pour le procédé de cuisson et les sécheurs de papier, exploitant de grands systèmes de chaudières où la perte de chaleur réduit directement l'efficacité.
