Reliance Industries Vadodara, Baroda, Gujarat

Reliance Industries Vadodara, Baroda, Gujarat is a petrochemical in India with a reported capacity of 180,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Reliance Industries Ltd. By capacity it ranks #11 of 11 petrochemical plants tracked in India. It emits about 388,468 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 90,552 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 61% above the median petrochemical.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731942.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 180,000 t of ethylene Reliance Industries Vadodara, Baroda, Gujarat — это ниже медианная petrochemical в India (800,000 t of ethylene). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 63% выше медианной petrochemical. Подсектор: petrochemical-steam-cracking. Как petrochemical, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 300–800°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. Нефтехимические заводы крекируют углеводороды при очень высоких температурах для производства этилена, пропилена и других базовых химикатов — один из самых теплоёмких промышленных процессов.

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