Shangdu County Xianghao Limestone Processing Co., Ltd. — China

Lime Plant in China. Approximate location 41.42499, 113.53182.

Lime PlantChinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Shangdu County Xianghao Limestone Processing Co., Ltd. is a lime plant in China. Its listed capacity is 2,400 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 #91 among 94 lime plants in China. It emits about 1,580 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE.

In context: how this facility compares

At 2,400 t of lime, Shangdu County Xianghao Limestone Processing Co., Ltd. is below the median lime plant in China (220,000 t of lime). 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.
