Laterlite S.P.A. | Gras Calce Division — Italy

Lime Plant in Italy. Approximate location 45.59462, 9.51427.

Lime PlantItalyCO₂ not individually reported

Laterlite S.P.A. | Gras Calce Division is a lime plant in Italy. Lime plants calcine limestone in kilns at 800–900°C; the quicklime they produce reacts with moisture and has to be kept dry. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.

CO₂ not individually reported — Climate TRACE covers this sector only in aggregate

In context: how this facility compares

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.

Carbon emissions

No facility-measured CO₂ is published for Laterlite S.P.A. | Gras Calce Division; Climate TRACE provides only a lime plant sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown.

CO₂: Climate TRACE sector-level estimate (not facility-measured).

Local climate

Laterlite S.P.A. | Gras Calce Division sits in a temperate oceanic climate zone (Köppen Cfb), at 45.6°N in the northern hemisphere.

~11°Ctypical annual mean
~18°Ctypical warm-season
Temperate oceanic: four distinct seasons — cold winters and warm summers

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 1375 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.
