У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 192,058 t of lime South Lime Ltd — це приблизно медіана lime plant у Italy (192,058 t of lime). Підсектор: lime. Як lime plant, воно вимагає високотемпературного технологічного тепла (зазвичай 600–900°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. Вапняні заводи прокалюють вапняк у гарячих печах при 800–900°C, і гарячий вапненець необхідно обробляти в ізольованих судинах, щоб запобігти реакції з вологою.

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