В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 4,284 t of lime Cemex De Puerto Rico, Inc. — это примерно медианная lime plant в Puerto Rico (4,284 t of lime). Подсектор: lime. Как lime plant, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 600–900°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. Известковые заводы прокаливают известняк в горячих печах при 800–900°C, и горячую негашёную известь необходимо обрабатывать в изолированных сосудах, чтобы предотвратить реакцию с влагой.

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