21. When the flow meter used for quantification purposes does not correct for the temperature and pressure of the landfill gas at standard conditions, the promoter must measure the landfill gas pressure and temperature separately and correct the uncorrected flow values using Equation 8. The promoter must then use the corrected flow values for quantification purposes.

Equation 8

VLGi,t	=	VLGuncorrected	×	293.15	×	P
				T		101.325

Where:

VLGi,t = Corrected volume of landfill gas sent to reclamation or destruction device i during time interval t, in cubic metres at standard conditions;

i = Reclamation or destruction device;

t = Time interval shown in the table of monitoring parameters in Appendix D for which CH4 flow and content measurements from the landfill gas are aggregated;

VLGuncorrected = Uncorrected volume of the landfill gas captured for the given time interval, measured using a flow meter, in cubic metres;

T = Measured temperature of the landfill gas for the given time interval, in Kelvin (°C + 273.15);

P = Measured pressure of the landfill gas for the given time interval, in kilopascals.
