Graymont Western Us Inc

Graymont Western Us Inc is a lime plant in United States with a reported capacity of 34,628 t of lime. It calcines limestone into quicklime in high-temperature kilns. By capacity it ranks #115 of 122 lime plants tracked in United States. It emits about 42,729 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 9,960 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 87% above the median lime plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38467356.

Em contexto: como esta instalação se compara

Com 34,628 t of lime, Graymont Western Us Inc é abaixo de a mediana de lime plant em United States (178,599 t of lime). Subsetor: lime. Como lime plant, requer calor de processo intenso (tipicamente 600–900°C) para suas operações industriais centrais — calor que deve ser fornecido por caldeiras, fornos ou combustão direta, e as perdas através de vasos e tubulações não isolados representam combustível desperdiçado. O isolamento modular removível pode reduzir essas perdas em 80–96%, esfriando superfícies a ≤45°C, com payback geralmente inferior a 2 anos. As plantas de cal calcinam calcário em fornos quentes a 800–900°C, e a cal viva quente deve ser manuseada em vasos isolados para evitar reação com a umidade.
