Steel Plant in China. Approximate location 24.95685, 102.37842.

Steel PlantChinaCO₂ reported

WISCO Group Kunming Steel Co Ltd New District Branch is a steel plant in China with a reported capacity of 2,800,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). It is operated by WISCO Group Kunming Steel Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #130 of 363 steel plants tracked in China. It emits about 4,410,513 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 1,028,092 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 192% above the median steel plant.

У контексті: як порівнюється це підприємство

При потужності 2,800,000 t of steel WISCO Group Kunming Steel Co Ltd New District Branch — це приблизно медіана steel plant у China (2,300,000 t of steel). Його викидання CO₂ на одиницю потужності приблизно на 23% 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.
