Jamuna Fertilizer Company Limited — Bangladesh
Chemical Plant in Bangladesh. Approximate location 24.68073, 89.82522.
Chemical PlantBangladeshCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Jamuna Fertilizer Company Limited is a chemical plant in Bangladesh. Its listed capacity is 480,000 t of chemical. Chemical plants produce a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals, many requiring precise temperature control and sustained heat input for reactions and separations. It is operated by Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corp. By capacity it ranks #3 among 3 chemical plants in Bangladesh. It emits about 552,042 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 5.6% of the CO₂e from the 11 facilities in Bangladesh that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 20% below the national median for this sector.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-45257108.

Local climate
Jamuna Fertilizer Company Limited sits in a tropical savanna climate zone (Köppen Aw), at 24.7°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 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 1249 W/m² to ambient — roughly 0.96× 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.
