В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 163,636 t of pulp & paper La Tuque Pulp & Paper Mill — это примерно медианная pulp & paper mill в Canada (163,636 t of pulp & paper). Подсектор: pulp-and-paper. Как pulp & paper mill, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 150–250°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. Целлюлозно-бумажные комбинаты генерируют собственный пар для процесса варки целлюлозы и сушки бумаги, работая с крупномасштабными котельными установками, где потери тепла непосредственно снижают эффективность.

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