Chevron El Segundo Refinery

Chevron El Segundo Refinery is a refinery in United States with a reported capacity of 285,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Chevron Corp. By capacity it ranks #17 of 134 oil refineries tracked in United States. It emits about 3,564,083 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 830,789 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 48% above the median refinery.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

285,000 BBL per day'de, Chevron El Segundo Refinery United States'daki refinery'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 93,500 BBL per day'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si refinery'nin medyanı üstünde kabaca 29%'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.

Kapasite ve CO₂ yoğunluğu karşılaştırması Climate TRACE endüstriyel tesis verilerinden hesaplanmıştır; sektör rolü mühendislik referansına dayanmaktadır.
