40  Digestate emissions—disposed to landfill

       (1) The emissions from digestate from project treatment facility t disposed to landfill EDig,t,LF (in tonnes CO2-e), is worked out using the formula (equation 19):

       where:

       t is a project treatment facility.

       EDig,t,LF means the emissions from digestate from project treatment facility t  disposed to landfill, in tonnes CO2-e.

       QDig,t,n means the wet weight of digestate from project treatment facility t treated using treatment type n, in tonnes, worked out in accordance with the monitoring requirements.

            Note: Treatment type n is the disposal of digestate to landfill.

       EFDig,n means the emissions factor for digestate disposed to landfill, in tonnes CO2-e per tonne of wet weight digestate, which is 0.015 × GWPCH4.

       WLFG means the average capture rate set out in the following table for methane emissions from landfills in the State or Territory in which the project is located.
