### Division 40—Production of polymer grade propene (polymer grade propylene)
340 (1) The production of polymer grade propene (C3H6, polymer grade propylene) is the physical transformation of hydrocarbons that have a concentration of propene (C3H6, propylene) between 45% and 85% with respect to mass (inclusive) to polymer grade propene (polymer grade propylene) that has a concentration of propene (propylene) of at least 98% with respect to mass.
(2) The production of polymer grade propene (polymer grade propylene) is specified as an emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity.
(3) The production of polymer grade propene (polymer grade propylene) is a highly emissions‑intensive activity.
(4) The basis for the issue of free carbon units for the production of polymer grade propene (polymer grade propylene) is by a tonne of 100% equivalent propene contained within polymer grade propene (propylene) that:
(a) has a concentration of propene that is at least 98% with respect to mass; and
(b) is produced by carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity.
