RefineryMalaysiaCO₂ reported

Vitol ATB Tanjung Bin Refinery is a refinery in Malaysia with a reported capacity of 32,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Vitol . By capacity it ranks #7 of 7 oil refineries tracked in Malaysia. It emits about 130,650 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 30,455 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 52% below the median refinery.

W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 32,000 BBL per day, Vitol ATB Tanjung Bin Refinery jest poniżej medianę refinery w Malaysia (124,000 BBL per day). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 40% 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.
