Steel PlantSaudi ArabiaCO₂ reported

Al Ittefaq Arab Steel Dammam plant is a steel plant in Saudi Arabia with a reported capacity of 2,600,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Arab Steel Co. By capacity it ranks #2 of 6 steel plants tracked in Saudi Arabia. It emits about 1,306,009 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 304,431 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 7% below the median steel plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 2,600,000 t of steel Al Ittefaq Arab Steel Dammam plant — це значно вище медіана steel plant у Saudi Arabia (1,200,000 t of steel). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 8% нижче медіани steel plant. Підсектор: iron-and-steel. Як steel plant, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 800–1500°C) для основних промислових операцій — тепла, яке повинне подаватися котлами, печами або прямим спаленням, і втрати через неізольовані судини та трубопроводи представляють витрачене напразно паливо. Знімна модульна теплоізоляція може зменшити ці втрати на 80–96%, охолодивши поверхню обладнання до ≤45°C, з окупністю часто менше 2 років. Сталеливарні заводи спалюють вугілля у доменних печах або використовують електричні дуги для плавлення брухту; в обох випадках розплавлений метал повинен перебувати вище 1500°C і транспортуватися через розширені гарячі трубопроводи та судини.

Порівняння продуктивності та інтенсивності CO₂ розраховано на основі даних промислових об'єктів Climate TRACE; роль сектору заснована на інженерних довідниках.
