51 Lime emissions
(1) For equation 12, View image in the official source is worked out using the following equation:
| View image in the official source | equation 20 |
View image in the official sourceis the emissions from lime during year B of the baseline period BP for the project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e,, worked out using equation 21.
(2) For equation 20, View image in the official sourceis worked out using the following equation:
| View image in the official source | equation 21 |
View image in the official sourceis the quantity of lime type l applied in year B of the baseline period BP for the project area PA, in tonnes.
View image in the official source is the proportion of pure carbonate content of lime type l, as provided by the manufacturer, or, if unavailable, the default value as set out in the Supplement, in tonnes of pure carbonate/tonne of lime type l.
Note: The proportion of pure carbonate content of lime is described as its neutralising value and includes both calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate
View image in the official source is the default emissions factor for pure carbonates in lime type l as set out in the Supplement, in tonnes CO2-e per tonne of pure carbonate.
n is the number of types of lime applied in year B of the baseline period BP.
