RefineryIranCO₂ reported

Persian Gulf Star Refinery is a refinery in Iran with a reported capacity of 400,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Oil Industry Retirement Fund Investment Co. By capacity it ranks #1 of 10 oil refineries tracked in Iran. It emits about 2,595,318 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 604,969 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 23% below the median refinery.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

400,000 BBL per day'de, Persian Gulf Star Refinery Iran'daki refinery'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 250,000 BBL per day'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si refinery'nin medyanı altında kabaca 55%'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.
