文脈内で:この施設がどのように比較されるか

3,293,000 t of steelで、Yunnan Yuxi Iron and Steel Group Yukun Iron and Steel Co LtdはChinaのsteel plantの中央値はるかに上 2,300,000 t of steelです。 容量あたりのCO₂は、steel plantの中央値上約36%です。 サブセクター:iron-and-steel。 steel plant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800–1500°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。 製鉄所は高炉で石炭を燃焼させるか、電気アークを使用してスクラップを溶融します。どちらの場合でも溶融金属は1,500°C以上に保つ必要があり、広範な高温配管および容器を通じて転送されます。
