Steel PlantSouth KoreaCO₂ reported

DaehanSteel Noksan Steel Plant is a steel plant in South Korea with a reported capacity of 1,000,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by Daehan Steel Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #14 of 16 steel plants tracked in South Korea. It emits about 58,839 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 13,715 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 89% below the median steel plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 1,000,000 t of steel DaehanSteel Noksan Steel Plant — це нижче медіана steel plant у South Korea (2,101,000 t of steel). 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.
