IOCL Guwahati Refinery

IOCL Guwahati Refinery is a refinery in India with a reported capacity of 24,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. By capacity it ranks #19 of 22 oil refineries tracked in India. It emits about 353,801 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 82,471 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 75% above the median refinery.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 24,000 BBL per day IOCL Guwahati Refinery — это ниже медианная refinery в India (210,000 BBL per day). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 5% выше медианной refinery. 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.
