Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emissions from Coal-fired Generation of Electricity Regulations — 21
0 if the sorbent material is CaCO 3 . Default F-factor (3) The default value for the fuel-specific carbon-based F-factor for certain types of fossil fuel is set out in column 3 of the following table: TABLE Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Item Fossil fuel Type F-factor (standard m 3 /GJ) 1 Coal Anthracite 54.2 Bituminous 49.2 Sub-bituminous 49.2 Lignite 53.0 2 Oil Crude, residual or distillate 39.3 3 Gas Natural 28.4 Propane 32.5 Common stack — disaggregation (4) Despite subsection (1), if there is one or more other units at a power plant where a unit is located and a CEMS measures emissions from that unit and from one or more of those other units at a common stack rather than at the exhaust duct of that unit and of each of those other units that brings those emissions to the common stack, then the quantity of emissions attributable to that unit for the purpose of subsection (1) is determined based on the ratio of the heat input of that unit to the total of the heat input of that unit and of all of those other units sharing the common stack in accordance with the following formula: The formula for determining the quantity of emissions attributable to a unit that shares a common emissions stack is the product of the multiplication of E and the quotient of the following two sums: the sum of the product resulting from the multiplication of Quj and HHVuj for each fuel type “j” combusted in that unit “u” during the calendar year and the sum, for each unit “i” that shares a common stack, of the sum of the product resulting from the multiplication of Qij and HHVij for each fuel type “j” combusted during the calendar year. where Q uj is the quantity of fuel type “j” combusted in that unit “u” during the calendar year, determined (a) for a solid fuel, in the same manner as the one used in the determination of M f in the formula set out in paragraph 23 (1)(a) and expressed in tonnes, (b) for a liquid fuel, in the same manner as the one used in the determination of V f in the formula set out in paragraph 23 (1)(b) and expressed in kL, and (c) for a gaseous fuel, in the same manner as the one used in the determination of V f in the formula set out in paragraph 23 (1)(c) and expressed in standard m 3 ; HHV uj is the higher heating value, determined in accordance with section 24 and expressed in the applicable unit of measure referred to in that section of fuel type “j” combusted during the calendar year in that unit “u”; i is the i th unit located at the power plant with “i” going from the number 1 to n, where n is the number of units that share a common stack; j is the j th fuel type, including types of biomass, combusted during the calendar year in a unit located at the power plant with “j” going from the number 1 to m, where m is the number of those fuel types; Q ij is the quantity of fuel type “j” combusted in each unit “i” during the calendar year, determined for a solid fuel, a liquid fuel and a gaseous fuel, respectively, in the manner set out in the description of Q uj ; HHV ij is the higher heating value, determined in accordance with section 24 and expressed in the applicable unit of measure referred to in that section, of fuel type “j” combusted during the calendar year in unit “i”; and E is the quantity of CO 2 emissions, expressed in tonnes, from the combustion of fuels in all the units during the calendar year, measured by a CEMS at the common stack in accordance with subsection 21 (1).
