Saddat Al-Hindiyah Cement Plant

Saddat Al-Hindiyah Cement Plant is a cement plant in Iraq with a reported capacity of 198,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Southern Cement State Co. By capacity it ranks #20 of 21 cement plants tracked in Iraq. It emits about 124,766 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 29,083 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 75% above the median cement plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32438741.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 198,000 t of cement Saddat Al-Hindiyah Cement Plant — это ниже медианная cement plant в Iraq (1,934,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 89% 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.
