В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 203,160 t of chemical CHN-Wuhai_methanol — это ниже медианная chemical plant в China (483,735 t of chemical). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 6% выше медианной chemical plant. Подсектор: chemicals. Как chemical plant, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 100–500°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. Химические заводы производят широкий спектр промышленных и специальных химикатов, многие из которых требуют точного контроля температуры и постоянного теплоснабжения для реакций и разделений.

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