35  Emissions from anaerobic digesters
  The emissions from an anaerobic digester used during a reporting period, in tonnes CO2‑e, are worked out using the formula (equation 16):
where:
EAD means the emissions from an anaerobic digester used during the reporting period, in tonnes CO2‑e.
γ means the factor, mentioned in subsection 5.4(1) of the NGER (Measurement) Determination, that converts cubic metres of methane to tonnes CO2‑e at standard conditions.
CE means 0.98, being the biogas collection efficiency of an anaerobic digester.
MSent,h means the volume of methane sent to combustion device h, in cubic metres, worked out in accordance with section 36.
MVent,q means the volume of methane vented due to major venting event q, in cubic metres, worked out using equation 19.
h means a combustion device used during the reporting period.
q means a major venting event associated with the anaerobic digester.
