Steel PlantJapanCO₂ reported
JFE Bars & Shapes Kashima Works steel plant is a steel plant in Japan with a reported capacity of 720,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by JFE Bars & Shapes Corp. By capacity it ranks #26 of 40 steel plants tracked in Japan. It emits about 41,639 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 9,706 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 89% below the median steel plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1566920.
Przy 720,000 t of steel, JFE Bars & Shapes Kashima Works steel plant jest poniżej medianę steel plant w Japan (973,658 t of steel). Podsektor: iron-and-steel. Jako steel plant, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 800–1500°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. Huty stali spalają węgiel w piecach wielkich lub używają łuków elektrycznych do topienia złomu; w obu przypadkach metal w stanie płynnym musi być utrzymywany powyżej 1.500°C i przenoszony przez rozległy system gorących rur i zbiorników.
Porównanie pojemności i intensywności CO₂ obliczane na podstawie danych instalacji przemysłowych Climate TRACE; rola sektora oparta na odniesieniau inżynierskim.
