在上下文中:该设施如何比较

在800,000 t of ethylene时,Sinopec Yangzi Petrochemical, Jiangsu, Nanjing是China中petrochemical的中位数约 1,000,000 t of ethylene。 子部门:petrochemical-steam-cracking。 作为petrochemical,它需要强烈的工艺热量(通常300–800°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。 石化厂在非常高的温度下裂化烃,生产乙烯、丙烯和其他基础化学品——是最热强度密集的工业过程之一。
