Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

6,999,000 t of steel'de, SAIL Bhilai steel plant India'daki steel plant'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 950,000 t of steel'dir. Kapasite başına CO₂'si steel plant'nin medyanı altında kabaca 10%'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.
