Motunui Methanol Complex is a chemical plant in New Zealand with a reported capacity of 1,500,000 t of chemical. It manufactures industrial and specialty chemicals. It is operated by Methanex Corp. It emits about 500,625 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 116,696 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-45257144.
На мощности 1,500,000 t of chemical Motunui Methanol Complex — это примерно медианная chemical plant в New Zealand (1,500,000 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.
