Tiense Suikerraffinaderij

Tiense Suikerraffinaderij is a food & beverage plant in Belgium with a reported capacity of 2,478,633,341 USD. It processes food, beverages or tobacco — typically with boilers, cookers and dryers. By capacity it ranks #2 of 38 food & beverage plants tracked in Belgium. It emits about 118,904 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 27,717 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 41% below the median food & beverage plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38480880.

Em contexto: como esta instalação se compara

Com 2,478,633,341 USD, Tiense Suikerraffinaderij é bem acima de a mediana de food & beverage plant em Belgium (1,192,879,215 USD). Subsetor: food-beverage-tobacco. Como food & beverage plant, requer calor de processo intenso (tipicamente 80–200°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 alimentos e bebidas usam caldeiras, cozinhadores, pasteurizadores e secadores que funcionam continuamente; a perda de calor de tubulações e vasos não isolados reduz diretamente a vazão e eficiência.
