| Summaries |
GHG emission reduction measures : Introduction of semi-aerobic landfill technology in SWDS reduces methane emissions from SWDS. Calculation of reference emissions : Reference emissions are calculated as the CH4 emissions from anaerobic managed SWDS: Calculated from the amount of MSW and fraction of each waste type disposed at the anaerobic managed SWDS using the first order decay (FOD) model. Calculation of project emissions : Project emissions are calculated as a sum of the following emissions: CH4 emissions from the project SWDS: Calculated from the amount of MSW and fraction of each waste type disposed at the project semi-aerobic SWDS using the first order decay (FOD) model.; CO2 emissions from on-site consumption of electricity by project: Amount of the electricity consumed by project multiplied by CO2 emission factor for electricity.; CO2 emissions from on-site consumption of fossil fuel by project: Amount of the fossil fuel consumed by project multiplied by net calorific value the fossil fuel and CO2 emission factor for the fossil fuel. Monitoring parameters : Total amount of MSW disposed at the project SWDS; Weight fraction of the waste type; Amount of the electricity consumed by project; Amount of the fossil fuel consumed by project; Year in the time period in which waste is disposed at the SWDS |
