W kontekście: jak ta instalacja się porównuje

Przy 471,410 t of steel, WISCO Group Kunming Steel Co Ltd Honghe Iron and Steel Company jest poniżej medianę steel plant w China (2,300,000 t of steel). Jego CO₂ na jednostkę pojemności wynosi w przybliżeniu 33% powyżej medianę steel plant. Podsektor: iron-and-steel. Jako steel plant, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 800–1500°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. Huty stali spalają węgiel w piecach wielkich lub używają łuków elektrycznych do topienia złomu; w obu przypadkach metal w stanie płynnym musi być utrzymywany powyżej 1.500°C i przenoszony przez rozległy system gorących rur i zbiorników.

Porównanie pojemności i intensywności CO₂ obliczane na podstawie danych instalacji przemysłowych Climate TRACE; rola sektora oparta na odniesieniau inżynierskim.
