Petrochemical in Uzbekistan. Approximate location 43.1765, 58.26875.

PetrochemicalUzbekistanCO₂ reported

Ustyurt Gas Chemical Complex, Ustyurt is a petrochemical in Uzbekistan with a reported capacity of 400,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Uzbekneftegaz JSC. By capacity it ranks #1 of 2 petrochemical plants tracked in Uzbekistan. It emits about 381,516 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 88,931 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 29% below the median petrochemical.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 400,000 t of ethylene, Ustyurt Gas Chemical Complex, Ustyurt est autour de la médiane des petrochemical en Uzbekistan (400,000 t of ethylene). Son CO₂ par unité de capacité est approximativement 24% en dessous de la médiane des petrochemical. Sous-secteur: petrochemical-steam-cracking. Comme petrochemical, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 300–800°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 usines pétrochimiques craquent les hydrocarbures à des températures très élevées pour produire l'éthylène, le propylène et d'autres produits chimiques de base — l'un des processus industriels les plus intensifs en chaleur.
