RefineryAfghanistanCO₂ reported
Ghazanfar Oil Refinery is a refinery in Afghanistan with a reported capacity of 30,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Ghazanfar Group LLC. It emits about 137,387 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 32,025 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 46% below the median refinery.

À 30,000 BBL per day, Ghazanfar Oil Refinery est autour de la médiane des refinery en Afghanistan (30,000 BBL per day). Sous-secteur: oil-and-gas-refining. Comme refinery, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 200–600°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 raffineries chauffent, fractionnent et transforment chimiquement le pétrole brut en combustibles et matières premières pétrochimiques par distillation et craquage gourmands en énergie — extrêmement exigeants pour la génération de vapeur et la récupération de chaleur.
