RefineryAlbania

Armo Ballsh Refinery is a refinery in Albania. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3143715.

Nel contesto: come si confronta questo impianto

Sottosettore: oil-and-gas-refining. Come refinery, richiede calore di processo intenso (tipicamente 200–600°C) per le sue operazioni industriali essenziali — calore che deve essere fornito da caldaie, forni o combustione diretta, e le perdite attraverso recipienti e tubazioni non isolati rappresentano carburante sprecato. L'isolamento modulare removibile può ridurre queste perdite dell'80–96%, raffreddando superfici a ≤45°C, con payback spesso inferiore a 2 anni. Le raffinerie riscaldano, frazionano e trasformano chimicamente il petrolio greggio in carburanti e materie prime petrolchimiche attraverso distillazione e cracking ad alta intensità energetica — estremamente esigenti per la generazione di vapore e il recupero di calore.
