Cement PlantEgyptCO₂ reported

Suez Cement Attaka Plant is a cement plant in Egypt with a reported capacity of 3,200,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Suez Cement Company SAE. By capacity it ranks #10 of 26 cement plants tracked in Egypt. It emits about 877,461 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 204,536 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 24% below the median cement plant.

W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 3,200,000 t of cement, Suez Cement Attaka Plant jest około medianę cement plant w Egypt (2,690,000 t of cement). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 24% poniżej 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.
