Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where natural gas is used to provide pneumatic power for automated process control and operational devices. Devices that may be powered by natural gas include pressure controllers, temperature controllers, transducers, liquid level controllers, flow rate regulators and chemical pumps. The opportunity for generating carbon offsets arises from the direct and indirect reduction in greenhouse gases resulting from the conversion of instrument gas to instrument air in process control systems.

Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where CO2 is injected into an enhanced oil recovery scheme and emissions offset project. The opportunity for generating emission offsets arises from the direct and indirect reduction in greenhouse gases resulting from the capture, transportation and injection and ultimate sequestration of CO2.

Quantification protocol for landfill gas capture and combustion. Version 3.0

Description

The scope of this protocol enables generation of emission offsets for landfill gas capture and combustion and/or combustion of landfill gas in an energy recovery system that displaces electricity.... More ≫

Description

The scope of this protocol enables generation of emission offsets for landfill gas capture and combustion and/or combustion of landfill gas in an energy recovery system that displaces electricity. The installation of landfill gas capture and combustion technology can convert methane to carbon dioxide resulting in a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Combustion with energy recovery can further reduce emissions by displacing fossil fuel sourced energy used to generate electricity and heat.

Description

Reductions in greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved through optimally-operated aerobic composting. This quantification protocol sets the parameters for offset projects involving aerobic composting. For the purposes of this protocol, the baseline condition for eligible waste streams is set as anaerobic decomposition in a managed landfill in Alberta. The project condition is a demonstrated diversion of waste from the baseline case of landfilling to an eligible aerobic composting project.

Description

This protocol quantifies greenhouse gas reductions that result from two related activities: the improvement in the fuel efficiency of natural gas combustion engines, and the capture of gases (primarily methane) normally vented to the atmosphere. The quantification approaches for measuring GHG reductions for both components are based on measurement and monitoring and thus provide a high level of accuracy. The protocol is written for those familiar with the operation of natural gas combustion engines and control systems that manage the fuel consumption for these engines.
