Calculation methodology& scientific rigor

At Emetrix, precision is our foundation: we use Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) models based on matrix algorithms so that every kg of CO₂e reported has verifiable scientific backing.

Normas de referencia

International Standards

Our algorithms are aligned with the most demanding global frameworks to ensure your reports are valid for export and external audits.

IPCC 2021

We use characterization factors from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (GWP 100a).

ISO 14067

We follow requirements and guidelines for product carbon footprint quantification.

GHG Protocol

Alignment with corporate accounting and reporting standards (Scopes 1, 2 and 3).

Matrix Calculation Model

Unlike traditional calculators based on spreadsheets (Excel), Emetrix uses a matrix calculation engine.

What does this mean? We solve systems of linear equations that represent the entire technosphere. This allows us to identify 'First Tier' contributions (direct impacts from your suppliers) with absolute mathematical precision, eliminating rounding errors or simplification.

Excel vs Matrix Engine

Traditional Excel

Manual formulas, approximations, possible loss of precision

vs

Emetrix Matrix Engine

Exact algebraic resolution, complete traceability, scalable

Especialización sectorial

Calculation layers for agriculture

We have developed calculation layers specific to the reality of the Argentine countryside.

Nitrogen Emissions

We implemented the EMEP/EEA 2023 methodology and the SQCB-NO3 model to calculate leaching and volatilization according to the soil type, climate and actual pH of your farms.

  • N2O, NH3, NOx
  • Model SQCB-NO3
  • Local climate factors

Heavy Metal Balance

We carried out a real mass balance (WFLDB compliant) that accounts for both the metals contributed by fertilizers and the net extraction carried out by the fruit, allowing us to report 'environmental credits' when the toxicity balance is negative.

  • Toxicity balance
  • Environmental credits
  • WFLDB Compliance

Cascading Assignment

In the packaging plant, the impact is distributed dynamically according to the final products and discards.

  • Mass balances
  • apportionment
  • Processed raw material
