Cleveland-Cliffs Weirton LLC

Cleveland-Cliffs Weirton LLC is a non-ferrous metals plant in United States with a reported capacity of 1 unitless. It smelts or refines non-ferrous metals. By capacity it ranks #30 of 330 non-ferrous metals plants tracked in United States. It emits about 152,269 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 35,494 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 231% above the median non-ferrous metals plant.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3673250.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

1 unitless'de, Cleveland-Cliffs Weirton LLC United States'daki non-ferrous metals plant'lerin medyanı yaklaşık 1 unitless'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si non-ferrous metals plant'nin medyanı üstünde kabaca 308%'dir. Alt sektör: other-metals. non-ferrous metals plant olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 400–1200°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. Demir dışı metaller fabrikaları, erime noktalarının üzerindeki ocaklar ve potalar içinde metalleri eritir, rafine eder ve dönerler; izolasyon yapılmamış transferlerden ve tutma kaplarından kayıplar önemlidir.

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