Bellesbumprom Pulp Mill — Belarus

Pulp & Paper Mill in Belarus. Approximate location 53.89777, 27.55753.

Pulp & Paper MillBelarusCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Bellesbumprom Pulp Mill is a pulp & paper mill in Belarus. Its listed capacity is 156,424 t of pulp & paper. Pulp and paper mills generate their own steam for the pulping process and paper dryers, running large-scale boiler systems where heat loss directly reduces efficiency. By capacity it ranks #2 among 2 pulp & paper mills in Belarus. It emits about 84,536 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 1.1% of the CO₂e from the 12 facilities in Belarus that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

At 156,424 t of pulp & paper, Bellesbumprom Pulp Mill is around the median pulp & paper mill in Belarus (156,424 t of pulp & paper). Subsector: pulp-and-paper. As pulp & paper mill, it requires high process heat (typically 150–250°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Pulp and paper mills generate their own steam for the pulping process and paper dryers, running large-scale boiler systems where heat loss directly reduces efficiency.
