Steel PlantIraqCO₂ reported

Al Anmaa Basra steel plant is a steel plant in Iraq with a reported capacity of 735,000 t of steel. It produces crude steel from iron ore (blast furnace) or scrap (electric arc furnace). By capacity it ranks #3 of 4 steel plants tracked in Iraq. It emits about 147,726 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 34,435 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 63% below the median steel plant.

在上下文中:该设施如何比较

在735,000 t of steel时,Al Anmaa Basra steel plant是Iraq中steel plant的中位数约 750,000 t of steel。 子部门:iron-and-steel。 作为steel plant,它需要强烈的工艺热量(通常800–1500°C)来进行其核心工业操作——必须通过锅炉、炉或直接燃烧供应的热量,通过未隔热的容器和管道的损失代表浪费的燃料。可拆卸模块化绝缘可以将这些损失减少80-96%,将表面冷却至≤45°C,投资回收期通常不到2年。 钢铁厂在高炉中燃烧煤炭或使用电弧熔化废料;在两种情况下,熔融金属都必须保持在1,500°C以上并通过广泛的热管和容器转移。
