Kamensk-Ural'sk District

Kamensk-Ural'sk District is an aluminium smelter in Russian Federation with a reported capacity of 46,555 t of alumina/aluminum. It smelts alumina into primary aluminium by high-current electrolysis. By capacity it ranks #17 of 17 aluminium smelters tracked in Russian Federation. It emits about 65,923 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 15,367 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 32% below the median aluminium smelter.

Nel contesto: come si confronta questo impianto

Con 46,555 t of alumina/aluminum, Kamensk-Ural'sk District è al di sotto di la mediana di aluminium smelter in Russian Federation (300,000 t of alumina/aluminum). Il suo CO₂ per unità di capacità è approssimativamente 38% al di sotto di la mediana di aluminium smelter. Sottosettore: aluminum. Come aluminium smelter, richiede calore di processo intenso (tipicamente 600–900°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 fonderie di alluminio utilizzano grandi correnti elettriche per raffinare l'allumina in alluminio fuso sopra i 900°C, e il metallo caldo deve fluire attraverso crogioli e attrezzature di fonderia.
