Biogenic carbon dioxide captured during biomethane upgrading
Measurement answer
What this metric measures

Disclosure form
No single formulaReport the source-defined result with its stated fields and method disclosures. AF.A2.1 defines a directly reportable capture outcome with quantity and percentage fields and an explicit feedstock disaggregation. The shortlisted biogenic-emissions and carbon-removals metrics concern emissions or removals constructs, not carbon dioxide captured during biomethane upgrading.

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

- Disclose the feedstock classification used, including source-separated organic waste, mixed waste streams and landfill gas where applicable.
- Disclose the amount and share of biogenic carbon dioxide captured for each reported feedstock.
- Disclose how the reported feedstock classification references the waste hierarchy.
- Disclose the boundary used for biogenic carbon dioxide captured from the biogas stream during upgrading.
Record-specific limitations
- The extracted specification does not define capture technology, carbon dioxide disposition, storage status, or life-cycle greenhouse-gas accounting treatment.
- The extracted specification identifies feedstock examples but does not establish a complete closed feedstock taxonomy.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
