1.1 This is a guide for determining the appropriate method or combination of methods for the estimation of natural attenuation or depletion rates at sites with non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) contamination in the subsurface. This guide builds on a number of existing guidance documents worldwide and...
4.1 Uses-This practice is intended for use on a voluntary basis by parties who wish to conduct a BEPA on a building. The process defined in this practice involves the collection of building energy consumption information, some of which may be collected as part of E2018 PCA or E1527 ESA. The...
4.1 Ebullition is ubiquitous in sediment and is primarily a significant concern when there is associated NAPL/contaminant transport, resulting in exposure risk to humans, ecological receptors, or both. Ebullition may also be a concern when capping has been chosen as part of a site remedy. 4.2...
1.1 Overview-This guide presents a generalized systematic approach to voluntary assessment and management of the causes and impacts of GHGs. It includes actions, both institutional (legal) and engineering (physical) controls for GHG reductions, impacts, and adaptations. Options for a tiered...
This practice covers the method to determine the calculated methane number (MNC) of a gaseous fuel used in internal combustion engines. The basis for the method is a dynamic link library (DLL) suitable for running on computers with Microsoft Windows operating systems. This practice pertains to...
This Standard applies to oil and gas industry pipeline systems that convey a) liquid hydrocarbons, including crude oil, multiphase fluids, condensate, liquid petroleum products; b) natural gas liquids and liquefied petroleum gas; c) oilfield water; d) oilfield steam; e) liquid or dense phase...
This Standard provides pathways toward sustainability by establishing measurable criteria for multiple levels of achievement. It allows manufacturers flexibility in methods for conformance and certification. This Standard assesses product characteristics in the areas of material and component...
This European Standard provides a harmonized methodology for calculating GHG emissions from the lime industry. It includes the manufacture of lime, and any downstream lime products manufactured at the plant, such as ground or hydrated lime. This standard allows for reporting of GHG emissions for...

Regulatory and voluntary actions are beginning to limit the direct global warming potential (GWP) of refrigerants used in many applications. A new class of fluids called unsaturated hydrofluoro-carbons or hydrofluoroolefins (olefin HFCs) has been developed to address this concern....
This white paper addresses the need for and development of the low-frequency audible signal used in fire alarms, carbon monoxide (CO) alarms, and fire or CO alarm systems. It documents the signal's waking effectiveness for hearing-impaired people, school-age children, and the elderly. It...
4.1 Uses-This practice is intended for use on a voluntary basis by parties who wish to conduct a BEPA on a building. The process defined in this practice involves the collection of building energy use information, some of which may be collected as part of Guide E2018 PCA or Practice E1527...
INTRODUCTION Recognizing the impact of ICT on the environment and the increasing attention being placed on sourcing ICT with a low environmental footprint, CANARIE funded a project to initiate a consortium of industrial and commercial enterprises, universities, and government agencies with the...
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY THE UNDERSTANDING OF OFFSETTING In general terms an offset is a "compensating equivalent". As an activity, offsetting is the "cancelling out" or "neutralizing" of emissions from a sector like aviation with emissions reductions achieved in a different activity or location that have...
INTRODUCTION Global discussions have escalated regarding concerns about carbon and other pollutant emissions due to the use of fossil fuels, as well as issues relating to access to energy and water resources. In conjunction with these global concerns, there continues to be a growing...
1.1 Overview-This guide presents a generalized systematic approach to voluntary assessment and management of the causes and impacts of GHGs. It includes actions, both institutional (legal) and engineering (physical) controls for GHG reductions, impacts, and adaptations. Options for a tiered...
SCOPE AND STRUCTURE This study is limited to considering and assessing emissions trading systems for GHGs.14 For aviation, only the CO2 emissions are considered.15 It would be more technically challenging to include the non-CO2 effects of aviation, such as NOx, contrails and water vapour, in a...
