11. Fugitive emissions from industrial gases

This methodology quantifies the GHG emission reductions from activities that recover and destroy Ozone-Depleting Substances (ODS) from products where a partial or total atmospheric release of ODS occurs in the baseline scenario. Project activities can be implemented in Montreal Protocol Article 5 and Non-Article 5 countries.

This methodology quantifies the GHG emission reductions generated by reducing leaks of hydroflourocarbon (HFC) refrigerants from commercial refrigeration systems in the United States.  HFC leaks can be reduced by monitoring refrigeration systems using infrared real time leak detection systems.  By detecting leaks quickly, refrigeration systems can be maintained and thereby reducing the rate of HFC emissions.
