Chemical PlantRussian FederationCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Achinsk Soda Plant is a chemical plant in Russian Federation. Chemical plants produce a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals, many requiring precise temperature control and sustained heat input for reactions and separations. It is operated by United Company RUSAL PJSC. It emits about 229,499 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.10% of the CO₂e from the 186 facilities in Russian Federation that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-45257232.
