790,926 t of pulp & paper'de, Pietarsaari Pulp Mill Finland'daki pulp & paper mill'lerin medyanı yaklaşık 637,000 t of pulp & paper'dir. Alt sektör: pulp-and-paper. pulp & paper mill olarak, temel endüstriyel işlemleri için yoğun proses ısısı (tipik olarak 150–250°C) gerektirir — kazanlar, fırınlar veya doğrudan yanma ile sağlanması gereken ısı, ve izolasyon yapılmamış kaplar ve boruların kayıpları harcanan yakıtı temsil eder. Modüler çıkarılabilir yalıtım bu kayıpları %80–96 oranında azaltabilir, yüzeyleri ≤45°C'ye soğutabilir, geri ödeme süresi genellikle 2 yıldan azdır. Kağıt hissesi ve kağıt fabrikaları, hamur işleme süreci ve kağıt kurutucuları için kendi buharını üretirler; büyük ölçekli kazan sistemlerini çalıştırırlar, burada ısı kaybı verimliliği doğrudan azaltır.

Kapasite ve CO₂ yoğunluğu karşılaştırması Climate TRACE endüstriyel tesis verilerinden hesaplanmıştır; sektör rolü mühendislik referansına dayanmaktadır.
