KRATON POLYMERS U S LLC

KRATON POLYMERS U S LLC is an other manufacturing in United States with a reported capacity of 1 unitless. It runs heavy manufacturing processes (rubber, plastics and allied products). By capacity it ranks #7 of 338 manufacturing plants tracked in United States. It emits about 209,315 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 48,791 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 564% above the median other manufacturing.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3193508.

Em contexto: como esta instalação se compara

Com 1 unitless, KRATON POLYMERS U S LLC é em torno de a mediana de other manufacturing em United States (1 unitless). Seu CO₂ por unidade de capacidade é aproximadamente 502% acima de a mediana de other manufacturing. Subsetor: other-manufacturing. Como other manufacturing, requer calor de processo intenso (tipicamente 100–600°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 instalações de manufatura pesada executam uma gama de processos intensivos em calor (borracha, plásticos, vasos de pressão); manter o calor de processo eficientemente é crítico para o controle de custos.
