Baseline Emissions = Tonnes of peel dried in year y * emissions factor peel driers + kL of citrus concentrate produced year y * emissions factor citrus concentrate + kL of
single strength fruit juice produced in year y * emissions factor single strength fruit juice + Annual hours of operation cooling facility* Published grid
emissions factor *electrical load removed by VAC
= Tonnes of peel dried in year y * 1.324364 + kL of citrus concentrate produced year y * 2.988218 + kL of single strength fruit juice produced in year y *
0.129268 + Annual hours of operation cooling facility* Published grid emissions factor *electrical load removed by VAC
Project emissions = tonnes of auxiliary coal burnt * carbon content coal * atomic weight carbon dioxide/atomic weight carbon
= tonnes of auxiliary coal burnt * carbon content coal * 44/12
Leakage = 0 (see D.2.3.2)
Therefore,
Emission reductions = Tonnes of peel dried in year y * 1.324364 + kL of citrus concentrate produced year y * 2.988218 + kL of single strength fruit juice produced in year y *
0.129268 + Annual hours of operation cooling facility* Published grid emissions factor *electrical load removed by VAC – (tonnes of auxiliary coal burnt
* carbon content coal * 44/12)
D.3. Quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) procedures are being undertaken for data monitored
It has been contractually agreed that quality control and quality assurance will be carried out by African Realty Trust as the functions below would merely be an add-on to the
similar work already carried out at the plant laboratory. The weight bridge, laboratory equipment is calibrated as per the suppliers’ specifications and the local governing
industry standard requirements.
Data
(Indicate table and ID
number e.g. 3.-1.; 3.2.)
Uncertainty level of data
(High/Medium/Low)
Explain QA/QC procedures planned for these data, or why such procedures are not necessary.
3-1 Low The origin of all feedstock will be recorded. It is likely that most of it will come from one site.
3-2 Low The amount of coal burnt is recorded by Letaba. In year 1 it will be necessary to distinguish between coal burnt in
the peel drier and coal burnt in the boilers as only Phase 1 will be operative. The Quality Assurance Manager at
Letaba Estates will ensure that separate record is kept of auxiliary coal being burnt in the peel drier.
