Pulp & Paper MillRussian FederationCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Voloshka Pulp Mill JSC Pulp Mill is a pulp & paper mill in Russian Federation. Its listed capacity is 480,800 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 #1 among 3 pulp & paper mills in Russian Federation. It emits about 259,836 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.11% of the CO₂e from the 186 facilities in Russian Federation that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

At 480,800 t of pulp & paper, Voloshka Pulp Mill JSC Pulp Mill is well above the median pulp & paper mill in Russian Federation (155,000 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.
