Shanxi Meijin Iron and Steel Co Ltd Dongyu Town is a steel plant in China with a reported capacity of 1,700,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Shanxi Meijin Iron and Steel Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #204 of 363 steel plants tracked in China. It emits about 2,486,496 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 579,603 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 171% above the median steel plant.

À 1,700,000 t of steel, Shanxi Meijin Iron and Steel Co Ltd Dongyu Town est en dessous de la médiane des steel plant en China (2,300,000 t of steel). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 14% au-dessus de la médiane des steel plant. 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.
