Cement PlantUruguayCO₂ reported
ANCAP Minas Cement Plant is a cement plant in Uruguay with a reported capacity of 240,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Cementos del Plata SA. By capacity it ranks #2 of 3 cement plants tracked in Uruguay. It emits about 60,075 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 14,003 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 30% below the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32439250.
Przy 240,000 t of cement, ANCAP Minas Cement Plant jest około medianę cement plant w Uruguay (240,000 t of cement). Podsektor: cement. Jako cement plant, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 800–1400°C) do swoich głównych operacji przemysłowych — ciepła, które musi być dostarczane przez kotły, piece lub spalanie bezpośrednie, a straty przez nieisolowane zbiorniki i rury stanowią zmarnowane paliwo. Modułowa izolacja demontowalna może zmniejszyć te straty o 80–96%, chłodząc powierzchnie do ≤45°C, z zwrotem inwestycji często poniżej 2 lat. Cementownie ogrzewają wapień do 1.400°C w piecach obracających się — jeden z najgorętszych procesów przemysłowych — i muszą precyzyjnie kontrolować temperaturę na całej długości pieca.
