У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 1 unitless Marathon El Paso Refinery — це приблизно медіана chemical plant у United States (1 unitless). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 35% нижче медіани chemical plant. Підсектор: other-chemicals. Як chemical plant, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 100–500°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. Хімічні заводи виробляють широкий спектр промислових та спеціальних хімікатів, багато з яких вимагають точного контролю температури та постійного теплопостачання для реакцій та розділень.

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