Bağlamda: bu tesis nasıl karşılaştırılır

1 unitless'de, UMICORE - HOBOKEN Belgium'daki non-ferrous metals plant'lerin medyanı yaklaşık 1 unitless'dir. Alt sektör: other-metals. non-ferrous metals plant olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 400–1200°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. Demir dışı metaller fabrikaları, erime noktalarının üzerindeki ocaklar ve potalar içinde metalleri eritir, rafine eder ve dönerler; izolasyon yapılmamış transferlerden ve tutma kaplarından kayıplar önemlidir.

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