У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 515,000 t of pulp & paper Grupo Empresarial ENCE S.A. Divisíon de Celulosa - Pulp Mill Pontevedra — це приблизно медіана pulp & paper mill у Spain (515,000 t of pulp & paper). Підсектор: pulp-and-paper. Як pulp & paper mill, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 150–250°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. Целюлозно-паперові комбінати генерують власну пару для процесу варіння целюлози та сушки паперу, працюючи з великомасштабними котельними установками, де втрати тепла безпосередньо зменшують ефективність.

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