Submission incomplete:
The DOE is requested to describe how the data/parameters used in the equations were verified as per VVM v1.2 paragraph 93.
In particular, please clarify:
(i) How the DOE has validated that the COD removal efficiency in baseline system (nCOD,BL,i) corresponds to: (1) 98.81% from the analysis by a consultant in July 2010 and (2) 98.6% from the analysis by a consultant in June 2009. It is since the PDD table 9, pg. 32, which shows the results of BE ww,treatment,y using the CDM Baseline Test dated July 2010, includes that the nCODBL,i is equal to 98.60%. In doing so, please clarify the same inconsistency in the PDD pg. 25.

(ii) The PDD (pg 34) states that the EGGenset,y is equal to 949MWh. Please clarify how this value was verified. It is since the VR simply states that the project emission due to electricity consumption has been estimated ex-ante to be on average of 1 234 tCO2e per year (VR pg. 28).

(iii) Please clarify why the nPJ,k is different from the nCOD,BL,i. It is since the PDD pg 28 explains that the existing lagoons system in the baseline scenario, or system k as per the PEww,treatment,y formula, is the waste water treatment system in the project scenario that is not equipped by biogas recovery and is included in the project emission calculation.
