Steel Plant in India. Approximate location 15.18182, 76.67983.

Steel PlantIndiaCO₂ reported

JSW Vijayanagar Metallics steel plant is a steel plant in India with a reported capacity of 1,659,016 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). By capacity it ranks #20 of 61 steel plants tracked in India. It emits about 2,522,811 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 588,068 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 181% above the median steel plant.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 1,659,016 t of steel, JSW Vijayanagar Metallics steel plant est bien au-dessus de la médiane des steel plant en India (950,000 t of steel). Sous-secteur: iron-and-steel. Comme steel plant, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 800–1500°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 aciéries brûlent du charbon dans des hauts fourneaux ou utilisent des arcs électriques pour fondre des ferrailles; dans les deux cas, le métal en fusion doit être maintenu au-dessus de 1.500°C et transféré à travers des tuyauteries et récipients chauds étendus.
