In context: how this facility compares
Subsector: food-beverage-tobacco. As food & beverage plant, it requires high process heat (typically 80–200°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Food & beverage plants use boilers, cookers, pasteurisers and dryers that run continuously.
Capacity & CO₂-intensity comparison computed from Climate TRACE industrial facilities data; sector role based on engineering reference.
Carbon emissions
No facility-measured CO₂ is published for Cargill; Climate TRACE provides only a food & beverage sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown.
CO₂: Climate TRACE sector-level estimate (not facility-measured).
Local climate
Cargill sits in a temperate oceanic climate zone (Köppen Cfb), at 51.1°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 corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C4 — High), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1395 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.07× 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. Open method dataset: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20787408 (CC BY 4.0).
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.
