Cement PlantNigerCO₂ reported

Malbaza Cement Plant is a cement plant in Niger with a reported capacity of 650,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Malbaza Cement Company SA. By capacity it ranks #2 of 2 cement plants tracked in Niger. It emits about 238,828 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 55,671 cars.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 650,000 t of cement, Malbaza Cement Plant est en dessous de la médiane des cement plant en Niger (1,000,000 t of cement). 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.
