Capitan Bermudez Pulp and Paper — Argentina
Pulp & Paper Mill in Argentina. Approximate location -32.8263, -60.70209.
Pulp & Paper MillArgentinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Capitan Bermudez Pulp and Paper is a pulp & paper mill in Argentina. Its listed capacity is 253,000 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 3 pulp & paper mills in Argentina. It emits about 136,727 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.65% of the CO₂e from the 33 facilities in Argentina that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-44375323.

In context: how this facility compares
At 253,000 t of pulp & paper, Capitan Bermudez Pulp and Paper is around the median pulp & paper mill in Argentina (253,000 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.

Local climate
Capitan Bermudez Pulp and Paper sits in a humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), at 32.8°S in the southern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a moderately corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C3 — Medium), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1325 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.02× 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.
