San Pedro Industrial Park — Argentina
Pulp & Paper Mill in Argentina. Approximate location -33.72333, -59.62306.
Pulp & Paper MillArgentinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
San Pedro Industrial Park is a pulp & paper mill in Argentina. Its listed capacity is 156,000 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 #3 among 3 pulp & paper mills in Argentina. It emits about 84,306 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.40% of the CO₂e from the 33 facilities in Argentina that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-44375324.

In context: how this facility compares
At 156,000 t of pulp & paper, San Pedro Industrial Park is below the median pulp & paper mill in Argentina (253,000 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.

Capacity vs largest pulp & paper mills in Argentina
Listed capacity (t of pulp & paper), Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0).
Local climate
San Pedro Industrial Park sits in a humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), at 33.7°S in the southern 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 1328 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.02× 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.

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.
