Cement Plant in Paraguay. Approximate location -22.17334, -57.95551.

Cement PlantParaguayCO₂ reported

Vallemi Cement Plant is a cement plant in Paraguay with a reported capacity of 1,060,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Industria Nacional del Cemento SA. By capacity it ranks #1 of 3 cement plants tracked in Paraguay. It emits about 472,041 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 110,033 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 24% above the median cement plant.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 1,060,000 t of cement Vallemi Cement Plant — это примерно медианная cement plant в Paraguay (1,000,000 t of cement). Его выброс CO₂ на единицу мощности примерно на 8% 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.
