methods
 (1) Subject to section 1.18, one of the following methods must be used for estimating emissions of carbon dioxide released during a year from the operation of a facility that is constituted by the production of cement clinker:
 (a) method 1 under section 4.4;
 (b) method 2 under section 4.5;
 (c) method 3 under section 4.8;
 (d) method 4 under Part 1.3.
 (2) However, for incidental emissions, another method may be used that is consistent with the principles in section 1.13.

4.4  Method 1—cement clinker production
  Method 1 is:

where:
Eij is the emissions of carbon dioxide (j) released from the production of cement clinker (i) during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
EFij is 0.534, which is the carbon dioxide (j) emission factor for cement clinker (i), measured in tonnes of emissions of carbon dioxide per tonne of cement clinker produced.
EFtoc,j is 0.010, which is the carbon dioxide (j) emission factor for carbon‑bearing non‑fuel raw material, measured in tonnes of emissions of carbon dioxide per tonne of cement clinker produced.
Ai is the quantity of cement clinker (i) produced during the year measured in tonnes and estimated under Division 4.2.5.
Ackd is the quantity of cement kiln dust produced as a result of the production of cement clinker during the year, measured in tonnes and estimated under Division 4.2.5.
Fckd is:
 (a) the degree of calcination of cement kiln dust produced as a result of the production of cement clinker during the year, expressed as a decimal fraction; or
 (b) if the information mentioned in paragraph (a) is not available—the value 1.

4.5  Method 2—cement clinker production
 (1) Method 2 is:

where:
Eij is the emissions of carbon dioxide (j) released from the production of cement clinker (i) during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
EFij is as set out in subsection (2).
EFtoc,j is 0.010, which is the carbon dioxide (j) emission factor for carbon‑bearing non‑fuel raw material, measured in tonnes of emissions of carbon dioxide per tonne of cement clinker produced.
Ai is the quantity of cement clinker (i) produced during the year measured in tonnes and estimated under Division 4.2.5.
Ackd is the quantity of cement kiln dust produced as a result of the production of cement clinker during the year, measured in tonnes and estimated under Division 4.2.5.
Fckd is:
 (a) the degree of calcination of cement kiln dust produced as a result of the production of cement clinker during the year, expressed as a decimal fraction; or
 (b) if the information mentioned in paragraph (a) is not available—the value 1.
γ is the factor 1.861 × 10‑3 for converting a quantity of carbon dioxide from cubic metres at standard conditions of pressure
