Faulkner Plant — Canada
Lime Plant in Canada. Approximate location 51.4135, -98.765.
Lime PlantCanadaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Faulkner Plant is a lime plant in Canada. Its listed capacity is 195,325 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 #7 among 11 lime plants in Canada. It emits about 109,753 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.16% of the CO₂e from the 127 facilities in Canada that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 15% below the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares
At 195,325 t of lime, Faulkner Plant is around the median lime plant in Canada (231,971 t of lime). Subsector: lime. As lime plant, it requires high process heat (typically 600–900°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Lime plants calcine limestone in kilns at 800–900°C; the quicklime they produce reacts with moisture and has to be kept dry.
