Taweelah Shaheen Alumina Refinery

Taweelah Shaheen Alumina Refinery is an aluminium smelter in United Arab Emirates with a reported capacity of 2,267,960 t of alumina/aluminum. It smelts alumina into primary aluminium by high-current electrolysis. It is operated by Emirates Global Aluminium PJSC. By capacity it ranks #1 of 4 aluminium smelters tracked in United Arab Emirates. It emits about 4,739,433 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 1,104,763 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-43765087.

Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

2,267,960 t of alumina/aluminum'de, Taweelah Shaheen Alumina Refinery United Arab Emirates'daki aluminium smelter'lerin medyanı çok üstünde 1,628,000 t of alumina/aluminum'dir. Alt sektör: aluminum. aluminium smelter olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 600–900°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. Alüminyum eritmeleri, alüminayı 900°C'nin üstündeki eritilmiş alüminyuma rafine etmek için büyük elektrik akımları kullanır ve sıcak metal pota ve dökme ekipmanı aracılığıyla akmalıdır.

Kapasite ve CO₂ yoğunluğu karşılaştırması Climate TRACE endüstriyel tesis verilerinden hesaplanmıştır; sektör rolü mühendislik referansına dayanmaktadır.
