Refinery in Nigeria. Approximate location 6.12452, 6.02261.

RefineryNigeriaCO₂ reported

DMCL Modular Refinery is a refinery in Nigeria with a reported capacity of 2,500 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. By capacity it ranks #9 of 9 oil refineries tracked in Nigeria. It emits about 10,970 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 2,557 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 48% below the median refinery.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 2,500 BBL per day DMCL Modular Refinery — это ниже медианная refinery в Nigeria (18,000 BBL per day). Подсектор: oil-and-gas-refining. Как refinery, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 200–600°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. Нефтеперерабатывающие заводы нагревают, фракционируют и химически преобразуют сырую нефть в топливо и нефтехимическое сырьё путём энергоёмкой дистилляции и крекинга — чрезвычайно требовательны к генерации пара и рекуперации тепла.

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