Cement PlantGermanyCO₂ reported

Beckum-Kollenbach Cement Plant is a cement plant in Germany with a reported capacity of 1,250,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Holcim (Deutschland) GmbH. By capacity it ranks #7 of 32 cement plants tracked in Germany. It emits about 162,847 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 37,960 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 64% below the median cement plant.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 1,250,000 t of cement Beckum-Kollenbach Cement Plant — это примерно медианная cement plant в Germany (1,000,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 59% ниже медианной cement plant. Подсектор: cement. Как cement plant, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 800–1400°C) для основных промышленных операций — тепла, которое должно подаваться котлами, печами или прямым сжиганием, и потери через неизолированные сосуды и трубопроводы представляют потраченное впустую топливо. Съёмная модульная теплоизоляция может снизить эти потери на 80–96%, охладив поверхность оборудования до ≤45°C, с окупаемостью часто менее 2 лет. Цементные заводы нагревают известняк до 1400°C во вращающихся печах — один из самых горячих промышленных процессов — и должны точно контролировать температуру по всей длине печи.

Сравнение производительности и интенсивности CO₂ рассчитано на основе данных промышленных объектов Climate TRACE; роль сектора основана на инженерных справочниках.
