Cement Plant in Iraq. Approximate location 34.25878, 41.21533.
Cement PlantIraqCO₂ reported
Qaim Cement Plant is a cement plant in Iraq with a reported capacity of 1,000,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Al Maysarah Group. By capacity it ranks #16 of 21 cement plants tracked in Iraq. It emits about 461,451 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 107,564 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 28% above the median cement plant.

À 1,000,000 t of cement, Qaim Cement Plant est en dessous de la médiane des cement plant en Iraq (1,934,000 t of cement). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 38% 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.
