Methodologies and frameworks.
Methodologies establish how an outcome is assessed. Frameworks define the rules and the evidence for verifying the recycling of organic waste (Biowaste) and the reduction of emissions.
Biowaste recycling
BOLD Recycling
Defines the rules for verifying the origin, mass, route and recycling of Biowaste by composting.

What has to be verified.
The BOLD frameworks verify the material, the participants and the treatment. BOLD Carbon (CH₄) also includes the calculation of the methane emission reduction.
What the rules verify
Origin, type and mass of the material
- Origin
- Identification of the generator and the place of origin.
- Type
- Compatibility of the waste with the types the framework accepts.
- Mass
- Weighing records and consistency across the documents.
What the rules verify
Participants and the material's route
- Participants
- Identification of those responsible for each step.
- Transport
- Records connecting the material's origin to its destination.
- Treatment
- Evidence of composting at the accredited facility.
What the rules verify
Recycling and emission reduction
- Recycling
- Eligible mass and evidence of recycling by composting.
- Carbon
- Calculation of the methane emission reduction, in CO₂e.
- Certification
- Meeting the criteria required to issue the certificate.
- Operation records
- Framework rules
- Certificate
The framework pages carry the rules and their references. The documentation presents how the network's methodologies are structured.
