Xinjiang Tianshan Iron and Steel Bazhou Co Ltd — China

Steel Plant in China. Approximate location 42.33142, 86.30243.

Steel PlantChinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Xinjiang Tianshan Iron and Steel Bazhou Co Ltd is a steel plant in China. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels. It is operated by Xinxing Ductile Iron Pipes Xinjiang Co Ltd. It emits about 2,696,060 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.10% of the CO₂e from the 1,485 facilities in China that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: iron-and-steel. As steel plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1500°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels.

805wind turbines running for a year

Equivalencies: US EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies. Emissions: Climate TRACE.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 2.7M t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Xinjiang Tianshan Iron and Steel Bazhou Co Ltd carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 2.7M t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €203M/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).

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1400 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.08× 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.
