RefineryChinaCO₂ reported

Sinopec Qilu Refinery is a refinery in China with a reported capacity of 260,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by China Petrochemical Corp. By capacity it ranks #13 of 148 oil refineries tracked in China. It emits about 3,231,065 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 753,162 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 47% above the median refinery.

Em contexto: como esta instalação se compara

Com 260,000 BBL per day, Sinopec Qilu Refinery é bem acima de a mediana de refinery em China (95,000 BBL per day). Seu CO₂ por unidade de capacidade é aproximadamente 51% acima de a mediana de refinery. Subsetor: oil-and-gas-refining. Como refinery, requer calor de processo intenso (tipicamente 200–600°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 refinarias aquecem, fracionam e transformam quimicamente o petróleo bruto em combustíveis e matérias-primas petroquímicas através de destilação e craqueamento que consomem muita energia — extremamente exigentes em geração de vapor e recuperação de calor.
