Cement PlantTanzaniaCO₂ reported
Mtwara Cement Plant is a cement plant in Tanzania with a reported capacity of 3,000,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Dangote Cement PLC. By capacity it ranks #1 of 6 cement plants tracked in Tanzania. It emits about 1,107,966 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 258,267 cars.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1897926.
На мощности 3,000,000 t of cement Mtwara Cement Plant — это значительно выше медианная cement plant в Tanzania (1,100,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 22% ниже медианной cement plant. Подсектор: cement. Как cement plant, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 800–1400°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. Цементные заводы нагревают известняк до 1400°C во вращающихся печах — один из самых горячих промышленных процессов — и должны точно контролировать температуру по всей длине печи.
Сравнение производительности и интенсивности CO₂ рассчитано на основе данных промышленных объектов Climate TRACE; роль сектора основана на инженерных справочниках.
