W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 158,673 t of alumina/aluminum, Kayong Utara Regency jest poniżej medianę aluminium smelter w Indonesia (300,000 t of alumina/aluminum). Podsektor: aluminum. Jako aluminium smelter, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 600–900°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 aluminium używają dużych prądów elektrycznych do rafinacji tlenku glinu w stopiony aluminium powyżej 900°C, a metal w stanie gorącym musi płynąć przez tygle i urządzenia do odlewania.
