Lime PlantUnited StatesCO₂ reported
Oldcastle Stone Products is a lime plant in United States with a reported capacity of 3,262 t of lime. It calcines limestone into quicklime in high-temperature kilns. By capacity it ranks #120 of 122 lime plants tracked in United States. It emits about 4,022 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 938 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 87% above the median lime plant.

На мощности 3,262 t of lime Oldcastle Stone Products — это ниже медианная lime plant в United States (178,599 t of lime). Подсектор: lime. Как lime plant, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 600–900°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. Известковые заводы прокаливают известняк в горячих печах при 800–900°C, и горячую негашёную известь необходимо обрабатывать в изолированных сосудах, чтобы предотвратить реакцию с влагой.
Сравнение производительности и интенсивности CO₂ рассчитано на основе данных промышленных объектов Climate TRACE; роль сектора основана на инженерных справочниках.
