Albus Cement Plant — Uzbekistan
Cement Plant in Uzbekistan. Approximate location 40.28431, 70.79179.
Cement PlantUzbekistanCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Albus Cement Plant is a cement plant in Uzbekistan. Its listed capacity is 1,410,114 t of cement. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length. By capacity it ranks #7 among 10 cement plants in Uzbekistan. It emits about 565,079 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 4.5% of the CO₂e from the 27 facilities in Uzbekistan that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 11% above the national median for this sector.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-32439344.

In context: how this facility compares
At 1,410,114 t of cement, Albus Cement Plant is below the median cement plant in Uzbekistan (2,496,557 t of cement). Subsector: cement. As cement plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1400°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions
At its reported 565k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Albus Cement Plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 565k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €42.6M/yr of exposure on EU-bound exports. CBAM share rises from 2.5% (2026) to 100% by 2034. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).

Local climate
Albus Cement Plant sits in a cold desert climate zone (Köppen BWk), at 40.3°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a benign, low-corrosion environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C1 — Very low), with dust abrasion the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1356 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.04× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment.

Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
