INEOS, Lavera is a petrochemical in France with a reported capacity of 740,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by INEOS AG. By capacity it ranks #1 of 6 petrochemical plants tracked in France. It emits about 927,870 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 216,287 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 7% below the median petrochemical.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731832.
Przy 740,000 t of ethylene, INEOS, Lavera jest znacznie powyżej medianę petrochemical w France (470,000 t of ethylene). Podsektor: petrochemical-steam-cracking. Jako petrochemical, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 300–800°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. Zakłady petrochemiczne krają węglowodory w bardzo wysokich temperaturach, aby produkować etylen, propylen i inne chemikalia podstawowe — jeden z najbardziej termochłonnych procesów przemysłowych.
