Cement PlantItalyCO₂ reported

Matera Cement Plant is a cement plant in Italy with a reported capacity of 1,320,000 t of cement. It burns limestone in high-temperature rotary kilns to make clinker and cement. It is operated by Heidelberg Materials Italia Cementi SpA. By capacity it ranks #9 of 29 cement plants tracked in Italy. It emits about 618,449 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 144,161 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 30% above the median cement plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 1,320,000 t of cement Matera Cement Plant — це приблизно медіана cement plant у Italy (1,180,592 t of cement). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 35% вище медіани cement plant. Підсектор: cement. Як cement plant, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 800–1400°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. Цементні заводи нагрівають вапняк до 1400°C у обертових печах — один із найгарячіших промислових процесів — і повинні точно контролювати температуру по всій довжині печі.

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