Kern Oil & Refining Bakersfield Refinery is a refinery in United States with a reported capacity of 26,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Kern Oil & Refining Co. By capacity it ranks #105 of 134 oil refineries tracked in United States. It emits about 180,369 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 42,044 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 18% below the median refinery.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1753368.
Przy 26,000 BBL per day, Kern Oil & Refining Bakersfield Refinery jest poniżej medianę refinery w United States (93,500 BBL per day). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 28% poniżej medianę refinery. Podsektor: oil-and-gas-refining. Jako refinery, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 200–600°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. Rafinerie ogrzewają, frakcjonują i chemicznie transformują ropę naftową w paliwa i surowce petrochemiczne poprzez destylację i krekowanie o wysokim natężeniu energii — niezwykle wymagające w stosunku do generowania pary i odzysku ciepła.
