Yibin Changyi Pulp Mill — China
Pulp & Paper Mill in China. Approximate location 28.7112, 104.69704.
Pulp & Paper MillChinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Yibin Changyi Pulp Mill is a pulp & paper mill in China. Its listed capacity is 120,000 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 #10 among 10 pulp & paper mills in China. It emits about 64,851 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-44375476.

In context: how this facility compares
At 120,000 t of pulp & paper, Yibin Changyi Pulp Mill is below the median pulp & paper mill in China (536,100 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.

Local climate
Yibin Changyi Pulp Mill sits in a humid subtropical (dry winter) climate zone (Köppen Cwa), at 28.7°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a mild atmospheric environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C2 — Low), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1325 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.
