Stora Enso Biomaterials - Enocell Pulp Mill — Finland

Pulp & Paper Mill in Finland. Approximate location 62.92124, 30.22925.

Pulp & Paper MillFinlandCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Stora Enso Biomaterials - Enocell Pulp Mill is a pulp & paper mill in Finland. Its listed capacity is 268,915 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. It is operated by Stora Enso Oyj. By capacity it ranks #12 among 13 pulp & paper mills in Finland. It emits about 119,152 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.98% of the CO₂e from the 28 facilities in Finland that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 18% below the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares

At 268,915 t of pulp & paper, Stora Enso Biomaterials - Enocell Pulp Mill is below the median pulp & paper mill in Finland (642,628 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.
