57 Lime emissions
(1) For equation 32, View image in the official source is worked out using the following equation:
| View image in the official source | equation 37 |
View image in the official source is the emissions from lime type l applied during the reporting period RP for the project area PA, in tonnes CO2-e, worked out using equation 38 .
n is the number of types of lime applied in the reporting period.
(2) For equation 37, View image in the official sourceis worked out using the following equation:
| View image in the official source | equation 38 |
View image in the official sourceis the quantity of lime type l applied in the reporting period in 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.
