and displacement project or a restarting biomethane displacement-only project, must include details of at least one project biomethane facility (see paragraphs 13B(2)(d)).

       biomethane production has the meaning given by subsection 8A(3).

       carbon tax waste, in relation to a landfill, means waste that was deposited in the landfill between 1 July 2012 and 30 June 2014.

       collection efficiency, of a landfill gas collection system at a landfill, means the proportion of landfill gas generated by the landfill that is collected and combusted by the landfill gas collection system, expressed as a percentage.

            combustion device means:
           (a) a flare, boiler or internal combustion engine that is operated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions; or
           (b) a device:
              (i) that combusts landfill gas with a destruction efficiency of at least 98%; and
              (ii) that is operated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions; and
              (iii) the combustion process of which is controlled using a monitoring and control system.

       complete, in relation to the combustion of landfill gas or biomethane, is combustion with a destruction efficiency of 98% or more of the methane.

       conversion abatement, in relation to a project, means the carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for a reporting period (worked out in accordance with Division 2 of Part 4) attributable to the conversion of methane (CH4) to carbon dioxide (CO2) by carrying out:
           (a) landfill gas capture for biomethane; or
           (b) emissions destruction.

            Note : Landfill gas capture for biomethane involves sending landfill gas to a biogas upgrading system to be turned into biomethane. This landfill gas is considered to have its methane component converted to carbon dioxide, as if it had been sent to a combustion device, because subsequent usage of the biomethane results in its combustion.

       daily/operational cover, in relation to a landfill, means the area of the landfill normally covered by material used to cover a day's deposition of waste in active landfill waste disposal areas of the landfill.

       displacement abatement, in relation to a project, means the carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for a reporting period (worked out in accordance with Division 3 of Part 4) attributable to biomethane production.

            eligible biogas means:
           (a) biogas produced from eligible biogas waste; or
           (b) landfill gas.

            eligible biogas waste means biogas waste that is:
           (a) eligible animal effluent biogas waste within the meaning of the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative—Animal Effluent Management) Methodology Determination 2019; or
           (b) mixed solid waste within the meaning of the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative—Alternative Waste Treatment) Methodology Determination 2015; or
           (c) eligible organic material within the meaning of the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative—Source Separated Organic Waste) Methodology Determination 2016; or
           (d) domestic or commercial wastewater, or industrial wastewater, within the meaning of
