Refinery in Vietnam. Approximate location 15.35153, 108.82858.

RefineryVietnamCO₂ reported

Petrovietnam Dung Quat Refinery is a refinery in Vietnam with a reported capacity of 148,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Vietnam Oil and Gas Group Co. By capacity it ranks #2 of 2 oil refineries tracked in Vietnam. It emits about 1,320,182 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 307,735 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 6% above the median refinery.

Nel contesto: come si confronta questo impianto

Con 148,000 BBL per day, Petrovietnam Dung Quat Refinery è al di sotto di la mediana di refinery in Vietnam (200,000 BBL per day). Il suo CO₂ per unità di capacità è approssimativamente 22% 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.
