HAL dolime,uncorrected,k : uncorrected historical activity level for dolime production in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes of lime 4. The product-related historical activity level for the baseline period for products to which the steam cracking product benchmark as referred to in Annex I applies shall be determined according to the following formula: whereby: HAL HVC,net : historical activity level for high value chemicals net of high value chemicals produced from supplemental feed expressed in tonnes of HVC HAL HVC,total,k : historical activity level for total high value chemicals production in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes of HVC HSF H,k : historical supplemental feed of hydrogen in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes of hydrogen HSF E,k : historical supplemental feed of ethylene in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes of ethylene HSF O,k : historical supplemental feed of other high value chemicals than hydrogen and ethylene in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes of HVC 5. The product-related historical activity level for the baseline period for products to which the aromatics product benchmark as referred to in Annex I applies on the basis of the different CWT functions, their definitions, the basis for throughput as well as the CWT factors as listed in Annex II shall be determined according to the following formula: whereby: HAL CWT : historical activity level expressed as CWT TP i,k : throughput of the CWT function i in year k of the baseline period CWT i : CWT factor of the CWT function i 6. The product-related historical activity level for the baseline period for products to which the hydrogen product benchmark as referred to in Annex I applies shall be determined according to the following formula: whereby: HAL H2 : historical activity level for hydrogen production referred to 100 % hydrogen VF H2,k : historical production volume fraction of pure hydrogen in the total volume of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in year k of the baseline period HAL H2 + CO,k : historical activity level for hydrogen production referred to historical hydrogen content expressed as norm cubic meters per year referring to 0 °C and 101,325 kPa in year k of the baseline period 7. The product-related historical activity level for the baseline period for products to which the synthesis gas (syngas) product benchmark as referred to in Annex I applies shall be determined according to the following formula: whereby: HAL syngas : historical activity level for synthesis gas production referred to 47 % hydrogen VF H2,k : historical production volume fraction of pure hydrogen in the total volume of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in year k of the baseline period HAL H2 + CO,k : historical activity level for synthesis gas production referred to historical hydrogen content expressed as norm cubic meters per year referring to 0 °C and 101,325 kPa in year k of the baseline period 8. The product-related historical activity level for the baseline period for products to which the ethylene oxide/ethylene glycols product benchmark as referred to in Annex I applies shall be determined according to the following formula: whereby: HAL EO/EG : historical activity level for ethylene oxide/ethylene glycols production expressed in tonnes of ethylene oxide equivalents HAL i,k : historical activity level for the production of the ethylene oxide or glycol i in year k of the baseline period expressed in tonnes CF EOE,i conversion factor for the ethylene oxide or glycol i relative to ethylene oxide Following conversion factors shall be applied: Ethylene oxide: 1,000 Monoethylene glycol: 0,710 Diethylene glycol: 0,830 Triethylene glycol: 0,880
