4.2. Appendix B: Waste Calculation Methodology <br />Emissions Calculation Methods <br />COze emissions from waste and t1llC disposal were calculated using the methane commitrnent <br />method in the CACP software, which uses a version oC the EPt~ WARM model. 'this model has <br />the following general formula: <br />COze ~ W~ * (1-R)A <br />W hero: <br />W~ is the quantify of waste type `t', <br />R is the methane recovery factor, <br />A is the COze emissions of methane per metric ton of waste at the disposal site (the methane <br />factor) <br />While the WARM model often calculates upstream emissions, as well as carbon sequestration in <br />the landfill, these dimensions of the model were omitted for this particular study for two reasons: <br />1) This inventory functions on a end-use analysis, rather than alife-cycle analysis, which <br />would calculate upstream emissions), and <br />2) This inventory solely identifies emissions sources, and no potential sequestration `sinks'. <br />4.3.
