Emission factor from MOENV coefficients

Recycled material – waste refrigerators – waste R11 refrigerant (liquid nitrogen method)

Taiwan · Cradle to gate · Any year

Each kilogram of this waste sent for recycling counts as 16 kg CO₂e up to the factory gate. MOENV coefficients gives one figure, for use in any year.

Value for 2015, recycling route

16kgCO₂e/kg

Net total: fossil, biogenic and land use · GWP100 · GWP vintage not stated

One value, for any year

MOENV coefficients sets no date window, so there is no year to pick.

What this number covers

The path of one kilogram of waste from your bin to the treatment site. Every step on it is counted; MOENV coefficients publishes the route as one number, not step by step.

  1. Collection and transport

    Picking the waste up and hauling it to the treatment site

    Included, not split out

  2. Treatment

    Treating the waste on the route it is sent down

    Included, not split out

  3. A credit for recovery

    Energy or material won back from the waste would belong to its next use

    Outside, none published

  4. Your waste

    1 kg sent for treatment, weighed as you hand it over.

    = 16

Outside this boundary

  • End of life
  • Capital goods

MOENV coefficients's waste rule: the haul in, no credit.
