Mexicana de Papel Periódico S.A. de C.V. Pulp Mill

Mexicana de Papel Periódico S.A. de C.V. Pulp Mill is a pulp & paper mill in Mexico with a reported capacity of 94,200 t of pulp & paper. It turns wood or recovered fibre into pulp and paper, with large steam and drying loads. By capacity it ranks #2 of 5 pulp & paper mills tracked in Mexico. It emits about 11,852 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 2,763 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 77% below the median pulp & paper mill.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-44375607.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 94,200 t of pulp & paper ist Mexicana de Papel Periódico S.A. de C.V. Pulp Mill etwa um dem Medianwert von pulp & paper mill in Mexico (94,200 t of pulp & paper). Untersektor: pulp-and-paper. Als pulp & paper mill benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 150–250°C) für seinen Kernbetrieb — Wärme, die durch Dampfkessel, Öfen oder direkte Verbrennung geliefert werden muss, und Verluste durch ungedämmte Behälter und Rohrleitungen stellen verschwendeten Brennstoff dar. Modulare abnehmbare Dämmung kann diese Verluste um 80–96% senken, Oberflächen auf ≤45°C kühlen, mit Amortisationszeiten oft unter 2 Jahren. Zellstoff- und Papierfabriken erzeugen ihren eigenen Dampf für Zellstoff-Prozess und Papiertrockner, betreiben große Dampfkesselanlagen, wo Wärmeverlust die Effizienz direkt reduziert.
