Cement PlantFranceCO₂ reported

Heming Cement Plant is a cement plant in France with a reported capacity of 900,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Eqiom SAS. By capacity it ranks #10 of 22 cement plants tracked in France. It emits about 481,729 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 112,291 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 49% above the median cement plant.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 900,000 t of cement, Heming Cement Plant est autour de la médiane des cement plant en France (800,000 t of cement). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 39% 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.
