Hyundai Chemical, Daesan

Hyundai Chemical, Daesan is a petrochemical in South Korea with a reported capacity of 850,000 t of ethylene. It cracks hydrocarbon feedstocks into building-block chemicals such as ethylene and propylene. It is operated by Lotte Chemical Corp. By capacity it ranks #9 of 11 petrochemical plants tracked in South Korea. It emits about 1,152,780 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 268,713 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731978.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

850,000 t of ethylene'de, Hyundai Chemical, Daesan South Korea'daki petrochemical'lerin medyanı altında 1,230,000 t of ethylene'dir. Alt sektör: petrochemical-steam-cracking. petrochemical olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 300–800°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. Petrokimya tesisleri, etilen, propilen ve diğer temel kimyasalları üretmek için hidrokarbonları çok yüksek sıcaklıklarda kraker — en ısı yoğun endüstriyel işlemlerden biridir.

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