Cement PlantUnited KingdomCO₂ reported
Ribblesdale Cement Plant is a cement plant in United Kingdom with a reported capacity of 1,300,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Heidelberg Materials UK Ltd. By capacity it ranks #3 of 10 cement plants tracked in United Kingdom. It emits about 577,802 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 134,686 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 23% above the median cement plant.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32438463.
На мощности 1,300,000 t of cement Ribblesdale Cement Plant — это значительно выше медианная cement plant в United Kingdom (1,000,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 10% выше 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.
