Yichang (Zhijiang) Chemical Complex

Yichang (Zhijiang) Chemical Complex is a chemical plant in China with a reported capacity of 498,950 t of chemical. It manufactures industrial and specialty chemicals. It is operated by XinYi Chemical . By capacity it ranks #78 of 157 chemical plants tracked in China. It emits about 1,346,348 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 313,834 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 100% below the median chemical plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-45257219.

Em contexto: como esta instalação se compara

Com 498,950 t of chemical, Yichang (Zhijiang) Chemical Complex é em torno de a mediana de chemical plant em China (483,735 t of chemical). Subsetor: chemicals. Como chemical plant, requer calor de processo intenso (tipicamente 100–500°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 químicas produzem uma ampla gama de produtos químicos industriais e especializados, muitos requerendo controle preciso de temperatura e entrada de calor sustentada para reações e separações.
