bonsai_ipcc.waste.biological.elementary module

bonsai_ipcc.waste.biological.elementary.ch4_emissions(m, ef_ch4_biotr, r_bt)[source]

Equation 4.1 (tier 1)

Calculates the CH4 emissions from biological treatment for MSW. Contrary to equations 4.1 in guidelines, no summation over treatment types.

Argument

m (Gg/year)float

Amount of organic waste that is treated. (wet weight)

ef_ch4_biotr (g/kg)float

CH4 emissions factor

r (Gg/year)float

total amount of CH4 that is recovered

returns:

VALUE – CH4 emissions for biological treated MSW(Gg/year)

rtype:

float

bonsai_ipcc.waste.biological.elementary.n2o_emissions(m, ef_n2o_biotr)[source]

Equation 4.2 (tier 1)

Calculates the N2O emissions from biological treatment for MSW. Contrary to equations 4.2 in guidelines, no summation over treatment types.

Argument

m (Gg/year)float

Amount of organic waste that is treated. (wet weight)

ef_n2o_biotr (g/kg)float

N2O emissions factor

returns:

VALUE – N2O emissions for biological treated MSW(Gg/year)

rtype:

float

bonsai_ipcc.waste.biological.sequence module

Sequences to determine GHG emissions from biogenic treatment.

Decision tree for CH4 and N2O:
  • tier 1: estimate total amount of wastes biogenic treated and use default emission factors

    (requirement: incineration or open burning is not a key category)

  • tier 2: country-specific emission factors

  • tier 3: plant- or site-specific emission factors
