RefineryTürkiyeCO₂ reported

STAR Aliaga Oil Refinery is a refinery in Türkiye with a reported capacity of 240,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic . By capacity it ranks #1 of 5 oil refineries tracked in Türkiye. It emits about 2,720,977 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 634,260 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 34% above the median refinery.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 240,000 BBL per day STAR Aliaga Oil Refinery — це приблизно медіана refinery у Türkiye (226,000 BBL per day). 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.
