RefineryKazakhstanCO₂ reported

CAPSI Aktau Bitum Refinery is a refinery in Kazakhstan with a reported capacity of 20,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by National Company KazMunayGas JSC. By capacity it ranks #4 of 4 oil refineries tracked in Kazakhstan. It emits about 85,787 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 19,997 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 49% below the median refinery.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

20,000 BBL per day'de, CAPSI Aktau Bitum Refinery Kazakhstan'daki refinery'lerin medyanı altında 120,000 BBL per day'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si refinery'nin medyanı altında kabaca 69%'dir. Alt sektör: oil-and-gas-refining. refinery olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 200–600°C) gerektirir — kazanlar, fırınlar veya doğrudan yanma ile sağlanması gereken ısı, ve izolasyon yapılmamış kaplar ve boruların kayıpları harcanan yakıtı temsil eder. Modüler çıkarılabilir yalıtım bu kayıpları %80–96 oranında azaltabilir, yüzeyleri ≤45°C'ye soğutabilir, geri ödeme süresi genellikle 2 yıldan azdır. Rafineriler, enerji yoğun destilasyon ve kraking yoluyla ham petrolü yakıtlara ve petrokimya hammaddelerine ısıtır, fraksiyonlar ve kimyasal olarak dönüştürür — buhar üretimi ve ısı geri kazanımı için son derece taleplidir.
