Scope
The BOLD Recycling MvF defines verification procedures for organic waste diversion from landfills to composting facilities:
- Waste types: Food waste, green waste (garden, yard, and park trimmings), sludge from waste treatment plants, tobacco industry residues, and other organic subtypes classified under CDM waste codes
- Treatment: Aerobic composting at professional facilities
- Geography: Currently operational in Brazil, with the framework designed to be expandable to other regions with compatible waste classification systems
Eligibility criteria
Participants must meet accreditation requirements:
- Waste generators — Must be identified with valid documentation. Accreditation dates are optional.
- Haulers — Required for truck and boat transport; optional for sludge pipe and cart collection.
- Processors — Exactly one processor must be identified per MassID.
- Recyclers — Exactly one recycler (composting facility) must be identified with valid accreditation dates.
- Network Integrators — Must have valid accreditation dates.
Verification requirements
The framework specifies verification checks across the full supply chain:
- Document validation — MassID structure, type, unit, and value
- Actor identification — Presence and identity of all required participants
- Event validation — Weighing, sorting, drop-off, and composting cycle data
- Geolocation — Address matching between events and accredited locations
- Manifests — Required transport and recycling documentation
- Compliance — Regional waste classification and project period validity
- Integrity — Uniqueness checks to prevent double counting
Key parameters
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Composting cycle timeframe | Validated between Drop Off and Recycled events |
| Geolocation tolerance | Participant addresses validated against accredited addresses |
| Document unit | Kilograms (kg) |
