En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 298,361 t of steel, Yichang Fulong Iron and Steel Co Ltd 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 84% en dessous 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.
