PROJECT IDEA NOTE A. Project description, type ,location and schedule Name of the project: The landfill treatment of living waste in luliang city Technical summary of the project Date submitted: 200512-31 The project will help the LuLiang city to treat the living wastes by Objective of the project flaring the landfill gas containing CH4 and to reduce GHG emissions. 。 Project description and proposed The project was approved by Luliang government in luliang ,shanxi province in 2004,and began to be designed in 2005 and is prepared activities(including a technical to be carried out after spring festival of 2006. It is planed to be description of the project ) finished in the end of 2006. The project was planned to deal with 230 tons city wastes/d or 80,000 t/a. By flaring of the gas, CH4 in the gas will be converted into CO2, which will reduce the GHG emission.

Expected environmental and social benefits Estimate of Greenhouse Gases Abated /CO2sequestered(in metric tons of CO2-equivalent) Baseline scenario Specific global& local envirommental benefits Which guidelines will be applied? Local benefits Annual: up to 2012(including 2012): 14,563.5 t CO2 Up to a period of 10 years: 145,635 t CO2 Up to a period of 7 years: 101,944.5 t CO2 Up to a period of 14years: 203,889 t CO2 Which GHG emissions was replaced by CDM and JI? The proposed project will convert the CH4 produced from the Landfill into CO2 by flaring, which greatly reduce the GHG. What would be in the future if without the CDM/JI? Now, the landfill sites in Shanxi province generally use natural filling technology without gas collection and flaring, thus, the gas including CH4 produced is emitted into the air, leading to high GHG emission. This would be the baseline scenario, which occurs if without the CDM project. Expected amount of the GHG reduction? The landfill site with 230 tons waste a day will produce 1.9 ton CH4, which equals to 39.9 ton CO2/d or totally 14563.5 t CO2-eq/a. The target of CDM project is consist with the development strategy and policy in China and the project activity is suggested in ten and eleven 5 year plan by national and provincial government. The project activity will reduce not only 14563.5tco2-eq/a of GHG but also a considerable amount of CH4, which will greatly improve the local environment. The project will bring the benefits 2 as follows: increase the income of the enterprise, strengthen the sustainable development, reduce environment pollution ,rise job opportunities ,promote the technology skills etc. Global benefits The performance of the project proposed can reduce GHG emission with lower cost because its low cost in Shanxi, being beneficial of the action to mitigate the global warming. During the performance, enterprise will accelerate its pace to be merged in the world. The project will reduce 14563.5tCO2-eq/a of GHG emission. Socio-ecomomic aspects What social and economic effects The project will bring the benefits as follows: to increase the income can be attributed to the project and of the enterprise, strengthen its ability of sustainable development, which would not have occurred in reduce environment pollution, create employment and promote the a comparable situation without that use of advanced technologies. project? Which guidelines will be applied? The major relevant environmental protection laws, regulation, standards as follows were applied: 1.Design Regulation of environmental protection of construction project (The State Environment Protection Bureau, Document 002, 1987) 2.Management Regulation of environmental protection of construction project (The State Council, Document 253, 1998) 3.Prevention and control regulation of air pollution (April 29, 2000) 4.Prevention and control regulation of water pollution (May 15,1996) 5.Standars for comprehensive air pollutant discharge (GB 16297-1996) What are the possible direct effects(e.g.,employment creation,capital required ,foreign exchange effects) What are the possible other effects? Environmental strategy/priotities of the Host Country The project is expected to provide about 30 job opportunities. Reduction of the financial risk in performing the treatment of the landfill gas with flaring for the Luliang municipal government during carrying out the project makes the performance of the project to be determined by the policy-making body of Luliang municipal leadership.. Other benefits from the project; 1.Due to the improvement of the environment, the living condition will be improved. 2. It is beneficial of the improvement of enterprise management and the severe training of the staff due to the scientific controlling and monitoring works in performing the CDM project. 3.The most common ways used in the treatment of landfill gas in Shanxi province are the natural landfill without gas collecting and flaring, leading to high GHG emission. The project will also set an example for other ones taking the same way to deal with the gas, which will promote the sustainable development in Shanxi province. The project is expected to provide about 200 job opportunities. Reduction of the financial risk in performing COG technology for the Jinyang Group Company during carrying out the project makes the performance of the project to be determined by the policy-making body of Jinyang Group. 3 C.
