Cement PlantChileCO₂ reported
La Calera Cement Plant is a cement plant in Chile with a reported capacity of 1,100,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Melon SA. By capacity it ranks #1 of 5 cement plants tracked in Chile. It emits about 380,474 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 88,689 cars.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32437360.
1,100,000 t of cement'de, La Calera Cement Plant Chile'daki cement plant'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 750,000 t of cement'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si cement plant'nin medyanı üstünde kabaca 33%'dir. Alt sektör: cement. cement plant olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 800–1400°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. Çimento fabrikaları kireci döner ocaklarda 1.400°C'ye ısıtır — en sıcak endüstriyel işlemlerden biridir — ve sıcaklığı fırının tüm uzunluğunda hassasiyetle kontrol etmelidir.
Kapasite ve CO₂ yoğunluğu karşılaştırması Climate TRACE endüstriyel tesis verilerinden hesaplanmıştır; sektör rolü mühendislik referansına dayanmaktadır.
