Jiangxian Lu Tai High Calcium Lime Factory. — China
Lime Plant in China. Approximate location 35.41896, 111.42905.
Lime PlantChinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Jiangxian Lu Tai High Calcium Lime Factory. is a lime plant in China. Its listed capacity is 330,000 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 #35 among 94 lime plants in China. It emits about 217,294 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-38467635.

Local climate
Jiangxian Lu Tai High Calcium Lime Factory. sits in a humid subtropical (dry winter) climate zone (Köppen Cwa), at 35.4°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 thermal cycling the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1373 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.06× 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.
