Civil Aviation Act, 2009 (Act No. 13 of 2009)RegulationsCivil Aviation Regulations, 2011Part 91 : General Aviation and Operating Flight RulesSubpart 10 : CORSIA91.10.8 Calculation of CO2 emissions from aeroplane fuel use |
(1) An aeroplane operator shall—
| (a) | apply a fuel density value to calculate fuel mass where an amount of fuel uplift is determined in units of volume; |
| (b) | record fuel density which may be an actual or a standard value of 0.8 kg per litre that is used for operational and safety reasons such as in an operational, flight or technical log; and |
| (c) | detail a procedure for informing the use of actual or standard density in an EMP along with a reference to a relevant aeroplane operator documentation. |
| (2) | An aeroplane operator using a fuel use monitoring method shall determine CO2 emissions from international flights, using the following equation: |
Where:
| CO2 = | CO2 emissions (in tonnes); |
| Mf = | Mass of fuel f used (in tonnes); and |
| FCFf = | Fuel conversion factor of given fuel f, equal to 3.16 (in kg CO2/kg fuel) for Jet-A fuel and 3.10 (in kg CO2/kg fuel) for AvGas or Jet-B fuel. |
