Domsjö Fabriker AB is a pulp & paper mill in Sweden. Its listed capacity is 370,000 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 #8 among 11 pulp & paper mills in Sweden. It emits about 188,397 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 1.3% of the CO₂e from the 29 facilities in Sweden that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 6% below the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares

At 370,000 t of pulp & paper, Domsjö Fabriker AB is below the median pulp & paper mill in Sweden (650,000 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.
