RefineryIndiaCO₂ reported

IOCL Panipat Refinery is a refinery in India with a reported capacity of 301,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. By capacity it ranks #7 of 22 oil refineries tracked in India. It emits about 3,253,089 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 758,296 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 28% above the median refinery.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 301,000 BBL per day IOCL Panipat Refinery — це значно вище медіана refinery у India (210,000 BBL per day). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 23% нижче медіани refinery. Підсектор: oil-and-gas-refining. Як refinery, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 200–600°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. Нафтопереробні заводи нагрівають, фракціонують і хімічно трансформують сиру нафту у паливо та нафтохімічну сировину шляхом енергомісткої дистиляції та крекінгу — надзвичайно вимогливі до генерування пари та рекуперації тепла.

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