North West Redwater Partnership Sturgeon Refinery

North West Redwater Partnership Sturgeon Refinery is a refinery in Canada with a reported capacity of 80,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. By capacity it ranks #12 of 18 oil refineries tracked in Canada. It emits about 525,573 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 122,511 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 22% below the median refinery.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

80,000 BBL per day'de, North West Redwater Partnership Sturgeon Refinery Canada'daki refinery'lerin medyanı altında 112,000 BBL per day'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si refinery'nin medyanı altında kabaca 34%'dir. Alt sektör: oil-and-gas-refining. refinery olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 200–600°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. Rafineriler, enerji yoğun destilasyon ve kraking yoluyla ham petrolü yakıtlara ve petrokimya hammaddelerine ısıtır, fraksiyonlar ve kimyasal olarak dönüştürür — buhar üretimi ve ısı geri kazanımı için son derece taleplidir.
