在上下文中:该设施如何比较

在50,000 BBL per day时,ANCAP La Teja Montevideo Refinery是Uruguay中refinery的中位数约 50,000 BBL per day。 子部门:oil-and-gas-refining。 作为refinery,它需要强烈的工艺热量(通常200–600°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。 炼油厂通过能源密集型蒸馏和裂化加热、分馏和化学转化原油为燃料和石化原料——对蒸汽发生和热回收要求极高。
