Shengshi Non-Metallic Materials Co., Ltd. In Qingyang County.

Lime Plant in China. Approximate location 30.51542, 117.7428.

Lime PlantChinaCO₂ not individually reported

Shengshi Non-Metallic Materials Co., Ltd. In Qingyang County. is a lime plant in China. Lime plants calcine limestone in hot kilns at 800–900°C, and the hot quicklime must be handled in insulated vessels to prevent reaction with moisture. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: lime. As lime plant, it requires high process heat (typically 600–900°C) for its core industrial operations — heat that must be supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion, and losses through uninsulated vessels and piping represent wasted fuel. Removable modular insulation can cut those losses by 80–96%, surface-cooling equipment to ≤45°C, with payback often under 2 years. Lime plants calcine limestone in hot kilns at 800–900°C, and the hot quicklime must be handled in insulated vessels to prevent reaction with moisture.

Carbon & decarbonization context

No facility-measured CO₂ is published for Shengshi Non-Metallic Materials Co., Ltd. In Qingyang County.; Climate TRACE provides only a lime plant sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown. The decarbonization lever is the same regardless: eliminating heat loss on hot equipment (removable insulation, steam & waste-heat recovery) typically cuts 2–5% of fuel-related CO₂, with payback up to 2 years. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).

Local climate

Shengshi Non-Metallic Materials Co., Ltd. In Qingyang County. sits in a humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), at 30.5°N in the northern hemisphere.

Site climate & environmental severity

The local climate sets how fast unprotected steel, protective coatings and the insulation on hot process equipment degrade at this site. It sits in a moderately corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C3 — Medium), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1340 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.03× the loss at a 20 °C reference; removable insulation recovers about 1273 W/m² of that. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment. Open method dataset: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20787408 (CC BY 4.0).

Higher environmental severity is exactly where protective removable insulation pays back most: a sheltered micro-climate slows corrosion, UV and thermal-cycling damage and extends outdoor hardware service life. This is an indicative site-climate context — not a condition assessment of any specific plant or operator.

Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.

Heat loss & insulation profile

For a lime plant, the main modular-insulation targets are kiln, preheater, hot-gas ducting, valves & dampers. Typical hot-surface ranges used for screening: 200–900 °C.

calcination-heavy like cement; fuel side only.

Indicative recoverable energy

A first-pass insulation screen suggests about 6,500 MWh/year of recoverable heat-loss reduction and about 2,200 t CO₂e/year of avoided emissions. Screening estimate scaled from installed process-heat projects and surface-temperature reduction data.

Screening calculation from facility class, capacity and open emissions/energy context. Engineering survey required before procurement.

Safety & the no-regret first step

Start with a thermal survey of valves, flanges, doors and bends. Removable modular insulation keeps maintenance access open while lowering exposed-surface temperature and wasted heat.

External climate finance your country can access

For energy-efficiency projects around process heat, likely external funding channels include:

CBAM. Exporters of cement, steel, aluminium, fertiliser, hydrogen and electricity to the EU face the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism — cutting embedded emissions (efficiency + insulation) lowers the levy.
