P.T. Kiani Kertas - Pulp Mill Mangkajang — Indonesia

Pulp & Paper Mill in Indonesia. Approximate location 2.0078, 117.74396.

Pulp & Paper MillIndonesiaCO₂ estimate (modelled)

P.T. Kiani Kertas - Pulp Mill Mangkajang is a pulp & paper mill in Indonesia. Its listed capacity is 525,000 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 #2 among 4 pulp & paper mills in Indonesia. It emits about 283,723 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.39% of the CO₂e from the 53 facilities in Indonesia that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

At 525,000 t of pulp & paper, P.T. Kiani Kertas - Pulp Mill Mangkajang is around the median pulp & paper mill in Indonesia (525,000 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.
