Žerotín, A.S.

Food & Beverage in Czechia. Approximate location 48.88931, 17.30486.

Food & BeverageCzechiaCO₂ not individually reported

Žerotín, A.S. is a food & beverage plant in Czechia. Food & beverage plants use boilers, cookers, pasteurisers and dryers that run continuously; heat loss from uninsulated piping and vessels directly reduces throughput and efficiency. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: food-beverage-tobacco. As food & beverage plant, it requires high process heat (typically 80–200°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. Food & beverage plants use boilers, cookers, pasteurisers and dryers that run continuously; heat loss from uninsulated piping and vessels directly reduces throughput and efficiency.

Carbon & decarbonization context

No facility-measured CO₂ is published for Žerotín, A.S.; Climate TRACE provides only a food & beverage 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.

Local climate

Žerotín, A.S. sits in a temperate oceanic climate zone (Köppen Cfb), at 48.9°N in the northern hemisphere.

Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).

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 mild atmospheric environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C2 — Low), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1411 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.08× the loss at a 20 °C reference; removable insulation recovers about 1340 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 food & beverage plant, the main modular-insulation targets are cookers & kettles, pasteurisers, CIP hot-water sets, dryers, steam lines, tanks, valves. Typical hot-surface ranges used for screening: 70–200 °C °C.

very wide by site size; many bare low-temp surfaces (CIP, steam, pasteurisation) - often toward upper end.

Indicative recoverable energy

A first-pass insulation screen suggests about 3,800 MWh/year of recoverable heat-loss reduction and about 760 t CO₂e/year of avoided emissions. Screening estimate scaled from installed process-heat projects and surface-temperature reduction data.

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.
