PetrochemicalNetherlandsCO₂ reported
Shell Nederland Chemie BV , Moerdijk is a petrochemical in Netherlands with a reported capacity of 910,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Shell PLC. By capacity it ranks #3 of 3 petrochemical plants tracked in Netherlands. It emits about 1,336,848 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 311,620 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 9% above the median petrochemical.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-18648367.
На мощности 910,000 t of ethylene Shell Nederland Chemie BV , Moerdijk — это ниже медианная petrochemical в Netherlands (1,310,000 t of ethylene). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 13% 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.
