Cement PlantBrazilCO₂ reported

Campo Formoso Cement Plant is a cement plant in Brazil with a reported capacity of 1,720,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by InterCement Brasil SA. By capacity it ranks #20 of 57 cement plants tracked in Brazil. It emits about 665,889 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 155,219 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 8% above the median cement plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 1,720,000 t of cement Campo Formoso Cement Plant — це приблизно медіана cement plant у Brazil (1,461,000 t of cement). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 19% вище медіани cement plant. Підсектор: cement. Як cement plant, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 800–1400°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. Цементні заводи нагрівають вапняк до 1400°C у обертових печах — один із найгарячіших промислових процесів — і повинні точно контролювати температуру по всій довжині печі.

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