Credit Calculator
Estimate C-CARB.CH4 and C-BIOW credit potential and see how paired pricing changes the effective C-BIOW value.

Overview
Use the Credit Calculator to estimate C-CARB.CH4 carbon credits and C-BIOW recycling credits generated from organic waste composting. C-CARB.CH4 is a Tokenized Carbon Credit (TCC) issued under BOLD Carbon (CH₄); C-BIOW is a Tokenized Recycling Credit (TRC) issued under BOLD Recycling. TCC and TRC are the broader credit categories, while the symbols identify these specific credits.
Select a baseline scenario, waste type, and volume to see projected credit quantities, the paired-pricing calculation, the effective value per C-BIOW, and an illustrative distribution of the combined proceeds.
The organic-waste distribution shown assumes a confirmed Waste Manager relationship. The table explains how the 4% share returns to the Hauler, Processor, and Recycler when no relationship is confirmed.

* Actual number of credits may vary based on audit results and operational conditions. This calculator uses a default 1% sorting factor; auditors may adjust this based on facility-specific data.
How paired pricing works
The calculator models a commercial bundle: it values the C-BIOW leg together with each C-CARB.CH4. The US$ 153.53 combined reference is a pricing projection, not a change to the purchase-order contract, which continues to identify the credit type and amount.
| Pricing component | Reference value | Applied to |
|---|---|---|
C-CARB.CH4 | US$ 120.00 | Each C-CARB.CH4 sold |
C-BIOW value leg | US$ 33.53 | Each C-CARB.CH4 sold, not each physical C-BIOW |
| Combined | US$ 153.53 | Each C-CARB.CH4 sold with proportional C-BIOW |
The emission coefficient determines how many C-BIOW accompany each C-CARB.CH4. Therefore, the effective value per physical C-BIOW is US$33.53 × emission coefficient. The comparison table in the calculator applies this formula to every supported waste type for the selected baseline scenario.
