Carmeuse Lime Inc/Millard Lime Plt — United States
Lime Plant in United States. Approximate location 40.3283, -76.55732.
Lime PlantUnited StatesCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Carmeuse Lime Inc/Millard Lime Plt is a lime plant in United States. Its listed capacity is 25,861 t of lime. Lime plants calcine limestone in kilns at 800–900°C; the quicklime they produce reacts with moisture and has to be kept dry. By capacity it ranks #72 among 75 lime plants in United States. It emits about 31,993 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 88% above the national median for this sector.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38467359.

Local climate
Carmeuse Lime Inc/Millard Lime Plt sits in a humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), 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 mild atmospheric environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C2 — Low), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1393 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.
