during the year measured in tonnes of COD.
MCFsl is the methane correction factor for sludge treated at the plant during the year.
Note: IPCC default methane correction factors for various types of treatment are:
 managed aerobic treatment: 0
 unmanaged aerobic treatment: 0.3
 anaerobic digester/reactor: 0.8
 shallow anaerobic lagoon (<2 metres): 0.2
 deep anaerobic lagoon (>2 metres): 0.8.
EFslij is the methane emission factor for the treatment of sludge by the plant.
 (6) For EFwij in subsection (5), an emission factor of 7.0 CO2‑e tonnes per tonne of COD may be used.
 (7) For EFslij in subsection (5), a methane emission factor of 7.0 CO2‑e tonnes per tonne of COD may be used.
 (8) For subsection (5), COD must be estimated for a commodity set out in column 1 of an item in the following table that is produced by the industry referred to by the ANZSIC code set out in column 1 for that item:
 (a) by using the default values for Wgen,i and CODcon,i set out in columns 2 and 3 for that item; or
 (b) in accordance with industry practice relevant to the measurement of the quantity of wastewater.
