Egyptian Steel Ain Sokhna plant

Egyptian Steel Ain Sokhna plant is a steel plant in Egypt with a reported capacity of 600,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Egyptian Steel Group. By capacity it ranks #8 of 11 steel plants tracked in Egypt. It emits about 102,396 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 23,869 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 68% below the median steel plant.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

600,000 t of steel'de, Egyptian Steel Ain Sokhna plant Egypt'daki steel plant'lerin medyanı altında 1,200,000 t of steel'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si steel plant'nin medyanı altında kabaca 68%'dir. Alt sektör: iron-and-steel. steel plant olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 800–1500°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. Çelik fabrikaları yüksek ocaklarda kömür yakar veya hurda ergitmek için elektrik ark kullanır; her iki durumda da eritilmiş metal 1.500°C'nin üstünde tutulmalı ve geniş sıcak borular ve kaplar aracılığıyla aktarılmalıdır.

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