✨ Data Preparation Rules for Carbon Steel Manufacturing



31 MARCH 2010 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 38 1031

considered in isolation when making a decision about eligibility. All methods used must be disclosed in the bases of preparation.

  1. All emissions associated with the activity must be counted, regardless of whether the output is of saleable quality.

Data Preparation Rules

  1. The methods, assumptions and calculations used to produce the data must be disclosed in the bases of preparation along with the data in the specified template.

  2. Where uncertainties arise when determining emission and revenue data, these uncertainties must be declared in the bases of preparation.

Schedule 2

Included emissions

Emissions that must be included in any information provided in response to this notice are emissions resulting from:

(a) direct emissions from, and electricity use of, machinery, equipment and processes which are integral to, and essential for, the physical, chemical and/or biological transformation involved in the activity as described, including, for example:

  • machinery used to move materials within and as part of the activity
  • control rooms, laboratories, maintenance workshops
  • machinery used to create non-electrical energy for use in the activity as defined
  • the processing of by-products where they involve the recovery of materials for re-use within the activity or are necessary for the activity to proceed as defined
  • onsite processing of waste materials from the activity to comply with regulatory obligations;

(b) the direct use of any coal, natural gas, geothermal fluid, used oil, or waste oil, or the use of electricity, to generate steam that is used as part of the activity as defined;

(c) waste heat recovery that is part of the activity as defined;

(d) warehousing or storage of activity outputs, raw materials and consumables used by the activity where this is at the same location as the activity;

(e) the preparation of cold ferrous feed prior to any heating and melting into liquid steel;

(f) the conduct of secondary metallurgical treatment;

(g) the production of cryogenic gases e.g. oxygen, nitrogen and argon that are consumed in the activity;

(h) casting via processes such as continuous casting or ingot casting into intermediate steel products;

(i) water and waste treatment (including gases, etc) necessary for the activity to be conducted; and

(j) the hot rolling of the crude carbon steel which is produced in the activity.
