Cement PlantBoliviaCO₂ reported
Caracollo Cement Plant is a cement plant in Bolivia with a reported capacity of 1,300,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Empresa Productiva Cementos de Bolivia. By capacity it ranks #2 of 7 cement plants tracked in Bolivia. It emits about 547,273 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 127,569 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 17% above the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1895240.
На мощности 1,300,000 t of cement Caracollo Cement Plant — это примерно медианная cement plant в Bolivia (1,100,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 23% выше 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.
