文脈内で:この施設がどのように比較されるか

410,000 t of ethyleneで、Repsol SA , Sines はPortugalのpetrochemicalの中央値約 410,000 t of ethyleneです。 サブセクター:petrochemical-steam-cracking。 petrochemicalとして、その中核的な産業操業に対して激しいプロセス熱(通常300–800°C)が必要です。この熱はボイラー、炉、または直接燃焼によって供給される必要があり、未断熱容器および配管からの損失は無駄な燃料を表します。モジュール式脱着可能な断熱は、これらの損失を80~96%削減でき、表面を≤45°Cに冷却でき、回収期間は通常2年未満です。 石油化学プラントは、エチレン、プロピレンおよび他の基本化学物質を製造するために、非常に高い温度で炭化水素をクラッキングします。最も熱集約的な産業プロセスの1つです。
