RefineryTurkmenistanCO₂ reported

Turkmenbashy Oil Processing Complex (TOPC) Refinery is a refinery in Turkmenistan with a reported capacity of 116,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Turkmennebit . By capacity it ranks #2 of 2 oil refineries tracked in Turkmenistan. It emits about 538,362 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 125,492 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 45% below the median refinery.

在上下文中:该设施如何比较

在116,000 BBL per day时,Turkmenbashy Oil Processing Complex (TOPC) Refinery是Turkmenistan中refinery的中位数约 120,000 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。
