Cement PlantDominican RepublicCO₂ reported

Santiago Cement Plant is a cement plant in Dominican Republic with a reported capacity of 2,000,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Cementos Cibao SA. By capacity it ranks #3 of 4 cement plants tracked in Dominican Republic. It emits about 599,872 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 139,830 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 17% below the median cement plant.

W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 2,000,000 t of cement, Santiago Cement Plant jest poniżej medianę cement plant w Dominican Republic (2,500,000 t of cement). 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.
