Khouzestan Steel plant

Khouzestan Steel plant is a steel plant in Iran with a reported capacity of 3,600,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Khouzestan Steel Co. By capacity it ranks #3 of 23 steel plants tracked in Iran. It emits about 2,380,692 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 554,940 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 22% above the median steel plant.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

3,600,000 t of steel'de, Khouzestan Steel plant Iran'daki steel plant'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 1,400,000 t of steel'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si steel plant'nin medyanı altında kabaca 9%'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.
