Refinery in India. Approximate location 13.15994, 80.27766.

RefineryIndiaCO₂ reported

CPCL Manali Refinery is a refinery in India with a reported capacity of 210,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. By capacity it ranks #11 of 22 oil refineries tracked in India. It emits about 2,333,055 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 543,836 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 32% above the median refinery.

Nel contesto: come si confronta questo impianto

Con 210,000 BBL per day, CPCL Manali Refinery è attorno a la mediana di refinery in India (210,000 BBL per day). Il suo CO₂ per unità di capacità è approssimativamente 21% al di sotto di la mediana di refinery. 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.
