Steel PlantIndonesiaCO₂ reported

KS Posco Cilegon steel plant is a steel plant in Indonesia with a reported capacity of 3,000,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by PT Krakatau Posco. By capacity it ranks #3 of 8 steel plants tracked in Indonesia. It emits about 4,575,957 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 1,066,657 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 182% above the median steel plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 3,000,000 t of steel KS Posco Cilegon steel plant — це приблизно медіана steel plant у Indonesia (2,800,000 t of steel). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 144% вище 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.
