Rohri Cement RCW Rohri Cement Plant — Pakistan

Cement Plant in Pakistan. Approximate location 27.67052, 68.89195.

Cement PlantPakistanCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Rohri Cement RCW Rohri Cement Plant is a cement plant in Pakistan. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length. It is operated by Rohri Cement Pvt Ltd. It emits about 440,694 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.81% of the CO₂e from the 55 facilities in Pakistan that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: cement. As cement plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1400°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 441k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Rohri Cement RCW Rohri Cement Plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 441k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €33.2M/yr of exposure on EU-bound exports. CBAM share rises from 2.5% (2026) to 100% by 2034. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).
