PetrochemicalSaudi ArabiaCO₂ reported
Petro Rabigh, Rabigh, is a petrochemical in Saudi Arabia with a reported capacity of 1,600,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Saudi Arabian Oil Co. By capacity it ranks #3 of 13 petrochemical plants tracked in Saudi Arabia. It emits about 2,316,872 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 540,063 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 8% above the median petrochemical.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731937.
Przy 1,600,000 t of ethylene, Petro Rabigh, Rabigh, jest około medianę petrochemical w Saudi Arabia (1,450,000 t of ethylene). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 6% powyżej medianę petrochemical. 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.
