23  Methane combusted
 (1) The methane combusted during a reporting period, in cubic metres, is worked out using the formula (equation 5):
where:
MCom means the methane combusted during the reporting period, in cubic metres.
MCom,h means the methane combusted during the reporting period by combustion device h, in cubic metres, worked out using equation 6 or 7 as required.

Methane combusted by combustion device h—boiler or flare with monitoring and control system or internal combustion engine
 (2) If combustion device h is a boiler, a flare with monitoring and control system or an internal combustion engine, the methane combusted during the reporting period by the device, in cubic metres, is worked out using the formula (equation 6):
where:
MCom,h means the methane combusted during the reporting period by combustion device h, in cubic metres.
DE means the default methane destruction efficiency for a combustion device, which for an internal combustion engine is 1 and for any other combustion device is 0.98.
MSent,h means the methane sent to combustion device h during the reporting period, in cubic metres, worked out using equation 8, 9 or 10.

Methane combusted by combustion device h—other combustion devices
 (3) If combustion device h is not a boiler, a flare with monitoring and control system or an internal combustion engine, the methane combusted during the reporting period by the device, in cubic metres, is worked out using the formula (equation 7):
where:
MCom,h means the methane combusted during the reporting period by combustion device h, in cubic metres.
DE means the default methane destruction efficiency for a combustion device, which for an internal combustion engine is 1 and for any other combustion device is 0.98.
Oh,a means the operation of combustion device h in hour a, which is either 0 or 1, worked out in accordance with the monitoring requirements.
MSent,h,a means the methane sent to combustion device h in hour a, in cubic metres, worked out using equation 8 or 9.
