Cement PlantChinaCO₂ reported
Ningxia Saima Cement Co Ltd Cement Plant is a cement plant in China with a reported capacity of 6,800,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Ningxia Saima Cement Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #17 of 739 cement plants tracked in China. It emits about 3,086,132 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 719,378 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 26% above the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1895894.
Przy 6,800,000 t of cement, Ningxia Saima Cement Co Ltd Cement Plant jest znacznie powyżej medianę cement plant w China (2,000,000 t of cement). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 26% powyżej medianę cement plant. 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.

A cement plant like this runs hot equipment that sheds heat continuously: rotary kiln shell, preheater tower, tertiary air duct & kiln hood, clinker-cooler ducts, valves (surface/process temperatures around 200–1,000 °C). These surfaces lose energy to the air year-round; removable modular insulation cuts that loss, brings outer surfaces to ≤45 °C, and unclips for inspection.
60% of cement CO2 is process calcination - NOT insulation-addressable; energy here is the fuel side only.
On an already-insulated site (pipes & valves in cladding / jackets), closing the remaining gaps, flanges and damaged sections and switching to removable covers indicatively recovers about 19,000 MWh/yr (≈ 6,500 t CO₂/yr) — scaled to this site's reported CO₂ within its sector. Bare or damaged surfaces recover several times more.
See Inzonex insulation → Estimate your site →
Indicative, not a measurement. Conservative floor for an already-insulated plant; a TIPCHECK on-site audit gives a measured figure. Industry context: EiiF TIPCHECK — industrial insulation can save ~14 Mtoe/yr in EU, payback typically <2 years.
Bare hot surfaces here exceed the touch-safe limit (EN ISO 13732-1); insulation to ≤45 °C is a worker-safety and compliance win. And before electrification, fuel-switching or CCS, eliminating surface heat loss is the cheapest, fastest, lowest-risk step — audit the bare spots first, rip-and-replace later.
Domestic energy-efficiency grants are limited here; industrial decarbonisation is mainly funded externally:
CBAM. Exporters of cement, steel, aluminium, fertiliser, hydrogen and electricity to the EU face the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism — cutting embedded emissions (efficiency + insulation) lowers the levy.
Routed via national development banks / accredited entities — not a direct factory grant. Verified 2026.
