[0171] 2. Project emissions

[0172] The baseline emission scenario for the methodology of low-value recyclable waste sorting in residential communities is as follows: after implementing low-value recyclable waste sorting, the low-value recyclable waste will be utilized as a resource, and the carbon emissions generated during the sorting and recycling process will be considered. The project emission calculation formula is as follows (26):

[0173]

[0174] in: Let tCO2 be the carbon emissions under the project scenario in year y; E sorting,y Let tCO2 be the carbon emissions from the sorting and recovery of low-value recyclables under the project scenario in year y. recycled,y tCO2 represents the carbon emissions generated from the utilization of low-value recyclable resources under the project scenario in year y.

[0175] 2.1 Carbon emissions E from sorting and recycling low-value recyclables sorting,y

[0176] Low-value recyclables possess some recycling value, but their added value is low, making them difficult to process through market mechanisms. Large-scale, automated recycling and sorting processes are needed to increase their value and achieve sustainable recycling. After recycling, sorting, and screening, low-value recyclables are considered to have direct recyclable properties. The sorting process involves energy and material consumption; therefore, the carbon emissions from sorting and recycling are calculated as follows:

[0177] E sorting,y =LVR E,y ×EF EC +LVR M,y ×EF M (27)

[0178] Among them: LVR E,y LVR represents the energy consumption for sorting low-value recyclables in year y, in MWh, with data sourced from project participants. M,y Let t be the amount of material consumed in the sorting of low-value recyclables in year y; EF M tCO2 / t represents the carbon emission factor due to energy and material consumption during the sorting process.

[0179] 2.2 Carbon emission reduction E from the resource utilization of low-value recyclables i,recycled,y

[0180] According to the "Xiamen Special Economic Zone Domestic Waste Classification Management Measures" and the "Xiamen Municipal Domestic Waste Low Value Recyclable Material Guidance Catalog", the objects for calculating the carbon emission reduction of low value recyclable materials can be divided into five categories: waste glass, ceramics, waste plastics, waste paper and waste textiles and clothing. Therefore, the low value recyclable materials included in this standard are five categories.

[0181] Therefore, the carbon emission reduction from the recycling of low-value recyclables is calculated based on the carbon emission factor of the recycled products after sorting and screening. This factor represents the carbon emissions generated throughout the entire production and processing process, including extraction, refining, processing, transportation, and manufacturing, revealing the product's carbon emission lifecycle. The specific calculation process is shown below:

[0182] E i,recycled,y =W i,.collected,y ×EF i,recycled (28)

[0183] Among them: W i,.collected,y Let t represent the mass of low-value recyclables i in year y, with data sourced from project participants. EF i,recycled The carbon emission reduction factor of i in low-value recyclables is tCO2 / t. The data sources are IPCC and literature review, and the data values ​​are shown in Table 8.
