RefineryIsraelCO₂ reported

Paz Oil Ashdod Refinery is a refinery in Israel with a reported capacity of 100,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. By capacity it ranks #2 of 2 oil refineries tracked in Israel. It emits about 1,043,737 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 243,295 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 24% above the median refinery.

Nel contesto: come si confronta questo impianto

Con 100,000 BBL per day, Paz Oil Ashdod Refinery è al di sotto di la mediana di refinery in Israel (197,000 BBL per day). 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.
