This is a Regulation originating from the EU
This is a legislation item that originated from the EU
After exit day there will be three versions of this legislation to consult for different purposes. The legislation.gov.uk version is the version that applies in the UK. The EU Version currently on EUR-lex is the version that currently applies in the EU i.e you may need this if you operate a business in the EU.
The web archive version is the official version of this legislation item as it stood on exit day before being published to legislation.gov.uk and any subsequent UK changes and effects applied. The web archive also captured associated case law and other language formats from EUR-Lex.
Status:
This is the original version (as it was originally adopted).
2. Emission factors related to process emissions
Table 2:
Stoichiometric emission factor for process emissions from carbonate decomposition (Method A)
| Carbonate | Emission factor [t CO2/t Carbonate] |
|---|---|
| CaCO3 | 0,44 |
| MgCO3 | 0,522 |
| Na2CO3 | 0,415 |
| BaCO3 | 0,223 |
| Li2CO3 | 0,596 |
| K2CO3 | 0,318 |
| SrCO3 | 0,298 |
| NaHCO3 | 0,524 |
| FeCO3 | 0,38 |
| General | Emission factor = [M(CO2)]/{Y * [M(x)] + Z *[M(CO3 2-)]} X = metal M(x) = molecular weight of X in [g/mol] M(CO2) = molecular weight of CO2 in [g/mol] M(CO3 2-) = molecular weight of CO3 2- in [g/mol] Y = stoichiometric number of X Z = stoichiometric number of CO3 2- |

Stoichiometric emission factor for process emissions from carbonate decomposition based on alkali earth oxides (Method B)
| Oxide | Emission factor [t CO2/t Oxide] |
|---|---|
| CaO | 0,785 |
| MgO | 1,092 |
| BaO | 0,287 |
| general: XYOZ | Emission factor = [M(CO2)]/{Y * [M(x)] + Z * [M(O)]} X = alkali earth or alkali metal M(x) = molecular weight of X in [g/mol] M(CO2) = molecular weight of CO2 [g/mol] M(O) = molecular weight of O [g/mol] Y = stoichiometric number of X = 1 (for alkali earth metals) = 2 (for alkali metals) Z = stoichiometric number of O = 1 |
