Ferrara Fertilizers facility

Ferrara Fertilizers facility is a chemical plant in Italy with a reported capacity of 544,310 t of chemical. It manufactures industrial and specialty chemicals. It is operated by Yara International ASA. By capacity it ranks #2 of 2 chemical plants tracked in Italy. It emits about 514,800 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 120,000 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 100% below the median chemical plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-45257079.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 544,310 t of chemical Ferrara Fertilizers facility — это примерно медианная chemical plant в Italy (633,960 t of chemical). 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.
